I hope that the £2 one wasn't the S&G coupons that we were all using!!:eek:

You still only need 1 No7 item to give you the gwp.
You can pick almost anything, nail varnish, cleansers, toners, lipstick, electrical, blusher, mens No7, etc.
The gwp pops into your 'basket' every time, still working with the mens gwp too, in the same way...just pick out the cheapest item.
Any one willing to try this in store.....

Got to Obey Orders and rest tomorrow - but I'll certainly try it on Friday! Come to think of it, the SA in (I think) Liverpool Street Station branch, told me on Saturday that they had a stock room full of GWPs.

I asked why she thought that was, and she said that the minimum spend of £18 was a bit rich for a lot of people at the mo, and that they tended to get one or 2 items (not knowing about the amazing coupon/voucher glitches!) and therefore didn't qualify.

So I wouldn't be suprised (holds breath - Be Still My Beating Heart!!) if they didn't start handing them out soon with any purchase! Especially with Mother's Day in a few weeks.

How many people are thinking about getting a No Grains Exfoliator, free with a Perkie, a GWP, with 250 lovely points and then doing it again? :j :j :j And again. And again.

Oooooooooh, I am loving the sound of this

We need someone brave enough to try it (where's Scorpio Kitten? She'd love that!)....... I'd give it a go myself (SAs in my local are lovely) but am stuck at home with ill son.

Its not Boots related, I have been reading about this on another forum, think its for Airwick coupons and another coupon - Eukanaba (sp) which are being sold on Ebay and shops like Tesco/Sainsburys etc cannot claim the money back and they are fraudulent.

Anyway the S&G voucher was a legitimate coupon, we were just using it for slightly different items. Totally different to what is going on in the Mail article.

Mine said:
In order to provide their customers with more convenience and choice in their day to day lives – Boots, the UK’s Number 1 health and beauty brand are considering a partnership with one of the UK’s highest quality Grocery retailer brands. This partnership will mean that when you are shopping for your groceries in your main supermarket you will be able to enter a ‘Boots pharmacy integrated within the store’ to obtain your prescriptions and buy all the health and beauty brands you love from Boots.

The retailer mentioned was the Co-op in mine. I wonder though if they base their suggestion on what you have told them earlier in the survey, the suggestion of a retailer name comes later in the survey. I told them I shopped frequently at the Co-op because it was local to me.

I rarely shop at Co-op, I told them I shopped at Tesco and Asda, I hope they dont go into Partnership with the Co-op, when I have shopped their its soo expensive.

There have still been a load more coupons redeemed than were actually emailed out. It may not have stated that only one was to be printed, but I'm sure that was the intention. Even with postage and printing, I'm sure it would have cost S&G a lot less money to print shiny vouchers and post them out to people on their mailing list.

I only used one coupon myself, and received that directly from S&G

morning all, .com is still adding gwp with only 1 purchase, who is gonna be brave enough and try this in store?! i am going to boots today but its at the retail park and they dont have ss tills here and im too much of a scaredy cat to try manned tills! let us know if anyone trys ,please.

Hello allI tried to get the No7 GWP with one purchase this morning.

I was successful in getting the GWP with just one exfoliator (which I used a perkie to pay for), but I think it did beep, but the SA didn't hear the beep because she was at another till de-activating the alarm.

Can't check my receipt as the printer ate it and didn't get another perkie as the till had run out If anyone else is successful, or not, could you please let us know.

Boots wouldn't accept the voucher I had sent directly from S&G, blankly refused, yet when I printed the ones from here they accepted them, if first ones had been honoured wouldn't have needed second ones

quick, someone get back from the shops and tell us if gwp is def going through with one purchase (pref at SS tills:D)
Sorry but I popped into Boots this morning after school run but forgot to check . They didnt seem to have any bargains again, no reduced sels, I stared at new olay gwp but couldnt bring myself to part with that sort of money.
