Hi brummiebird

Haven't been into town for over a week. But did find some reduced TD goodies in the New Street branch towards the end of Jan, so I'd keep checking in there - you never know.

Keep your eyes on the floor too - all those office workers throwing away their £5 skincare vouchers!

No new offers on the machines in preston town centre
They do have a fair bit of reduced items around the store though including
lots hard candy makeup which is included in the buy 2 get £5 off offer

If anyone sees a "jakers" display around preston / lancs area can you please let me know (by PM if poss) the one I found was in kids toy section upstairs
Its a cartoon & bf loves it - i bought ferrny, dannan & wiley today but they had no pigleys left

It would make his day if I could find one

Thanks

Hi

I thought that I would take advantage of the TS offer and so bought 1 full size item and 10 minis, 5 x firm gel @ £0.44 + 5 x wax stick 75ml @ £1.59.
It did indeed trigger the £4.00 off but I was only given 100 points. I guess that the points offer does not work on minis, not for me anyway!

Boots tills really are hard to fathom - it definitely gave me the points on the 44p firm gel.

Hi dave
i went into the little one on new st this lunchtime and lo and behold i came across 2 TS gels in the old packaging but yep u've guessed it no AC machine, so i traipsed round to the bigger one, printed out a voucher and went back to it. They went thru at £1.00 but when i gave my voucher, the SA said that they couldnt accept it as it had to be used in the store that i got the voucher from but he'd give it a go, i only got 100 points once but i wasnt going to query it!!!! i just smiled nicely and said thankyou!! got a feeling they've fixed the glitch!! the machine wasnt giving out any FCUK vouchers either,

TS didn't work for me!!

Trip to Boots at lunchtime: checked the ACM and yippee! TS voucher was there... Went and grabbed 6 full size TS products, old style packaging and reduced, compared to the photos showing in the OP and it was the same products. So far so good. But when I went to pay and handed my TS voucher, I only received one lot of 100 pts!!! and NOT for every TS product purchased..:(
So have they fixed the glitch then???

I think it's looking like they have.

STILL NO VOUCHERS IN THE MACHINE FOR ME! NEVER HAD EI/FCUK/LYNX/NO 7/TS - ITS NOT FAIR!! :mad:

Trevor Sorbie 100 points AC voucher

Well that's 3 reports now that would seem to suggest that Boots have closed the loophole whereby the TS voucher gave 100 points for each TS item purchased - even minis.

Has anyone tried to print more than one TS coupon and use it in the same way as the Lynx Click voucher? Ie print 5 vouchers and present all 5 in one go?

That would mean that the SA would have a reason to disallow a voucher being used against a mini item though.

If the AC machine will still let you print off more than one TS voucher, you can of course still put the items thru as single transactions.

Wonder if this has got anything to do with today being Wed, which is when the machines are supposed to be updated?
