Boots Parenting Club - Voucher Problems

Hiya,

Wifes finally managed to join the oots Parenting Club.
The vouchers she has got include one for "Free, any single product from Boots Mediterranean pregnancy range up to the value of £5"

She has been to 3 or 4 ifferent stores now and cannot find this range, she asked me to ask you guys n gals if you have had same problem. Could you use the voucher on another item?

  • maybe she could telephone customer services on 08450708090 and they could advise? :)

    I couldn't find the Meditteranean pregnancy range either and tried to use the voucher against the normal stuff but the cashiers wouldn't let me do it. I eventually went to a large Boots some time after and found some pregnancy stuff so I got to use the voucher in the end.

    I've tried 2 big Boots stores as well as countless little ones amd have never found that range to claim my freebie.

    I have also just received my voucher for the huggies goody bag and Avent welcome pack. Previously I had seen loads of the huggies starter bags but when I got mine there were only 2 left and they didn't know anything about the Avent free welcome pack. So grab a bag as soon as you get your voucher.

    ...Don't get my started on the free pregnancy packs from Boots and Mothercare (via the midwife!) I'm 32 weeks pregnant now and I've been trying since I was 8 weeks to get either of these packs. They have been out of stock for months!

    Oh to answer your question- no I've not been allowed to use it on something else either. However Soltan was on bogoff so they gave me 2 products instead of just one (to the value of £10 I think).

    I only found this in my local store 6 months after first receiving it and about 3 days before the voucher expired. I also found it in the baby range, they had moisturiser and shower gel in the range here. I think someone on the boots thread said you could order things in store if the're not in stock etc so you could try that- don't say it's for a freebie of course, they might not be as helpful.

    Hi, I had exactly the same problem. Someonelse mentioned looking in the baby area. This is where I found mine.I don't think there is a vast choice, body butter,bubble bath,footpowders and soaks. As I've said try round by the baby bath stuff.

    I had this problem as my local little boots did not stock the range or had nothing in it.

    I found it when I went to a bigger boots couple of weeks before the voucher was due to go out of date.

    They did not have much of a choice. But got a free shower gel so not complaining.

    I agree ring up and ask what local boots stock the range.

    Good luck.

    I used the No7 voucher on a skin cream worth £16 and got a free good bag just before christmas. I love a freebie.

    Yours
