    ''Worth returning and buying again, so you get the voucher?''


    thanks..hadn't thought of that. will they give me a cash refund, i still have the reciept?
    you should get a cash refund as you have the reciept . take it back get a bodyform with voucher ( or something for a few pence , if no bodyform available . ) and you will get the no 7 voucher, also check the advantage card machine to see if you have any total spend points

    With everyone trying to get over the £10 mark for various vouchers would it be a good idea to make a list of the cheapest things available in Boots?

    I'll start off with aspirin (yellow box) & paracetamol (blue box) for 16p, not brand names but they do the job just as well!
