can anyone please tell me what I did wrong today?

I went to the till with a P&P hand cream and a P&P lip care and a GWP.

tried to give a £5 P&P acm and a perkie and she refused to take them??? had to pay for them seperately in order to use both vouchers and lost the GWP? ended up costing me £8.60 is that right??

The cost is correct (and would have been the same if you'd paid for it all together) but making you buy them seperately meant you couldn't get the GWP. What a meanie What did she say? Was it along the lines of only using 1 voucher at a time? If anything like that happens again then my advice would be to smile sweetly and politely say "oh, it worked for my friend earlier, would you mind just trying please?" and if the SA still says no then don't be afraid to say you'll leave it then, thanks, and try a different SA/store

thanks for your replies - do you think I could take them back and ask for a refund or would that be really cheeky? am kicking my now as I only really got them for the GWP and havent even got that now!

Hi

I would of just left it + then went to a different till ... there has been some people on here that the SA's haven't let them use both vouchers on the same transactions... I have done it loads of times with no problems + got the GWP each time.

Hi, Anyone from SHEFFIELD? If so, please could you advise me as to whether any of the city centre branches have ACM's &/or SS tills.
Many Thanks x

the store down the moor (near the back to the right, close to the sandwiches) and the store on fargate (upstairs and downstairs) both have acm's. none of the citycentre stores have SS tills, meadowhall does if thats any help?

Hi everyone

Great to hear about all the clever bootsing going on using up the wrinklies - well done everyone.

Not had such good luck with them here,No HE, P & P full price as is the serum, very little on the clearance and SELs all with full-price stuff.So I was mooching a bit thinking I must be able to find a bargain so round the counters again I went..

There was an unused No7 till on its own and a lovely little pink satin covered box on it.Being nosey ,I had a little look and it was full of very nice No 7 bits and pieces.I imagine it was an old GWP but I didn't recognise it as it must have been out BB ( before I began Bootsing). It had a pink scroll on the top and a little drawer as well as a flip top opening .There was no price and no label of any description but nothing had been used.

I got a young Saturday SA ( told me she wasn't allowed on the tills yet so I think she was glad of something to do) to find the price so off she went in search of the No 7 rep.She was gone ages but came back saying she couln't find the rep but a SA on pharmacy told her to do it for £1.00. I grabbed it there and then and exited sharpish before the No 7 rep came back and told us both off! :j :j :j

Do any of you experienced bootsters remember it ?

BTW there was a points voucher for 250 inside but it was out of date - the kind SA swapped it for a valid one from her friend on the pharmacy and put the expired one in the bin!!

So, am i right in thinking that by using the perkie along with the P&P vouchers, the till takes money off the rest of your shopping if products purchased are less than £10? Also, can i ask, what is the Pink Loreal bag GWP? does anyone have a pic of this?

Yes!! I did this combo yesterday with:
Olay T/Polish @ £6.84
P&P Lip Care @ £8.60
JF Serum @ £1.95
3 x Colgate TP @ 78p (342)

Total Paid £2.00....so got the 3 Toothpastes for 16p:j
