Don't think this has been posted, so sorry if it has. Went to Boots this afternoon, printed out a selection of vouchers, and realised that it has offered me the palmolive coupon twice in one session. Printed out max no of each as they have different barcodes and should be able to be used in the same transaction.

I tried the extracts vouchers on the SS and it declined them - it was on the reduced extracts, so I'm guessing that I need to buy the full price stuff? TIA

Was that in the new packaging or the old? I bought some yesterday and it was 97p, but it was the new packaging. And I guess the ACM vouchers for 150 back ended today? If not I'd go have a look-see tomorrow, lol.

Hi the foam I got today was in the new packaging so have no idea why it came up so cheap.

It was the gillette series sensitive shaving foam (not gel) and the sel was 97p, it then scanned at 30 something p, but till then took a further 1/3 off :j:j.

And yep the acm vouchers ended today, I might pop back to acm tomorrow though, just incase it has been extended. You never know your luck. Its an amazing return 150 points for 23p, even better than all that HE we were getting.

When my DH got back from work he did look slightly bemused as to why I had bought him 2 more shaving foams when he already has a cupboard full (if only they had all been bought with extra point vouchers I would now be points rich)

some one else said they had probs with extract voucher on ss tills. was it def the new extract range you were getting not mediteranean (sp?) range. I had a look today and kept getting confused between the 2 ranges then gave up as couldnt find anything below £3 in the extract range.

How much, roughly, do the Boots extracts minis cost?

About 1.63.

Went Bootsing in Merry Hill today and didn't have much success! Clearance shelf had been removed as nothing left! Couldn't find anything else reduced apart from offers that are on at the mo'. Couldn't even find a Boots mag and when I got downstairs and asked was told to look upstairs!
Looked for reduced No.7 but could only see pots of Body Lotion. Picked up this http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=854574&callingViewName=&langId=-1&catalogId=11051 and asked rather unfriendly looking No. 7 SA if she could try perkie against it. Turned out she was lovely and said she could see no reason why it shouldn't work. Voila it did so got for 75p. Stupidly I later realised I hadn't used my GWP points voucher which I think I could of done!

AM in case you make it over to Runcorn soon, they had plenty of reduced No7 foot softner creams. Also the No7 instant tan range, like No7 Bronze silk legs, they were reduced to £5.

SA told me the voucher wouldnt work with reduced items, I just smiled nicely and asked her to try. Needless to say it worked.

I've been in 5 Boots stores today - and haven't spent money or points in any of them .

I'm bored of trawling aisles, and I can't even summon up any enthusiasm to buy essentials to get perkies. So apart from my teeny store near work, I'll be giving them a miss for a while I think.

Sums my feelings up too. Ended up coming out with a Clean On Me S&G on my points and that was it.
Oo - also forgot to say, a lot of the Original Source Shower/Bath stuff was half price at 99p on SEL. Got Cocoa one and Almond&Coconut one - 99p each.
