Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 8..Read first post for current bargains

Sorry - just a quickie (and I'm probably missing something on this thread, but can't see it) - can you get the free No7 gift with the free item from the parenting club? I got some serum today and when I handed over the voucher, the SA scanned the free gift off again.

Oh, and I only got one Meditarraneam item - the SA didn't mention them being BOGOF. And they had none of the Botanics stuff.

TIA

i will have to ask for a price check. i have a coupon for BOGOF on the range, but would prefer it if the till's did BOGOF automatically so that the SA doesnt get suspicious about 2 coupons for 2 products and nothing to pay.

As far as im aware, the Boots tills do all offers automatically, with the exception of reduced lines with labels stuck on them.

I read on another thread posted by a SA that works in Boots that if you get triple points on huggies nappies/wipes and combine it with your double points voucher you will get points x 5 !!! Guess this is again dependent on the SA but worth knowing.

i read this too, but when i tried it today, it only doubled my regular points, not the triple points!!

something weird happened that someone might be able to help with though, my double points couopn says it expires tomorrow, but on my reciept it says i can use it again before march30th!!! can anyone clarify?

It depends on the SA. The best thing to do (as recommended by freebie-junkie), is to allow the SA to scan the No7 product and the gift, then to produce the voucher when you are asked for the payment.

As for the Mediterranian stuff, I think the tills show up with any offers which are currently running with the product when it is scanned. I think you may have been unlucky and got a crabby SA who did not bother to tell you.

im going to try the free no7 item in a few weeks, and hopefully will manage it with a big baby shop.

i tend to try and mix these multi coupon offers with a HUGE baby shop and normally it works. last time i got a free no7 item coupon under £16.50, i managed to get the current free gift by mixing it into a big shop.

I would recommend you to keep the receipt with you, so if it does not scan next time you use it you could show it to the SA and if you're lucky they may agree to add the points manually.

does anyone know the best way to use my free skincare voucher? i wanted to get some nice but cheap for a new mum relative...

the tip further up about the hand cream was very good - about 8 posts back I believe.

How sad am I, on the way to tae kwon do for the kiddies, I picked up my freebies and post from my mum's. On the Boots mailing I had a voucher for 500 points free so that was a nice surprise.

That is exactly what happened the first time it was put through as a 99p voucher.

And the first time in boots I got a 1p change but no points even though she has put my card in the machine.

I am not going to complain saves me a packet.


Yours

Funny i got points and 1p change each time!

Thanks. That's what I did. I didn't say anything, but when I presented the voucher, she scanned the free gift off. What a meany. I should have gone to Middlebrook rather than Deepdale - they are much more friendly there.
