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

mummysaver

I detect definite feelings of excitement on this thread this morning!

Have made a list of things to do in Boots: nag about the hair mask, thought it was just me not being able to find one!, check whether the med range is still BOGOF and use my voucher for BOGOF from the pregnancy mailing, tell any grouchy SA's that refuse my AC vouchers that I've spoken to HO and they say that they should be tried as it is the till's decision (I'm getting Little Britain type visions "the till says no" :rotfl: ).

Now all I need is a list of current bargains - can't go and look today as need to go to bed in a minute (worked last night and I'm very tired!). So good luck to all out there reporting from the field :j

Have also made a note to pop into Morrisons with my leftover Bodyform vouchers, luckily it's almost next to my Boots store!

Hi Angel - made me laugh about you nearly announcing your pregnancy to your sister, my dd1 loudly asked at the till when she saw me ripping the preg vouchers out "are you pregnant again then?" :rotfl: I know I've got four children, but she made me sound like Old Mother Hubbard :rotfl:

Hiya

Just got home from a check up at the dr's with baby and hoping to visit Boots after he has had his bottle, but no sign of any reports of any glitches coming in yet. I wonder if anyone has found one yet and are eagerly on their way home to tell us?

Come on guys there must be one out there.........I will let you know later if I find anything although I m only a beginner so still not too sure how to spot them and need the proffesionals help

Where are all our roving boots reporters?

I will be popping into boots at lunchtime to do a phone top-up, but I was hoping to have had some reports in before I go.

I really only need phone top-up but that will be £10, so will be able to report back if I get a voucher to spend.

Well, what interesting posts from Robb! :eek:

My money is on the scam being the TD, gym ball, EA vouchers, etc, never mind anyone returning things, I should imagine that Boots "lost" a fortune just from people not having to pay for stuff! Not so much a scam as a !!!! up! If people returned stuff and got their money back or an exchange, yes it probably isn't that ethical, but that isn't the point, Boots should have had some kind of system in place, and if it was that big a deal no doubt we will see some changes in their policies soon. :rolleyes:

I was a bit shocked to see that Robb had points taken off after using 4 vouchers for 50 pts each on meal deal in seperate transactions, if they only want us to have one mag they'll just have to post them out, rather than having them at the tills! There is nothing on the coupons to say that you can only use one of the vouchers EVER! And what about the machines, they offer the same vouchers over and over - if someone starts taking my points away then I'm going to be very :mad: as I bought the stuff because the points generally reduce things to a similar prices as other shops, and it's nice to be able to use the points for little treats.

Yes sometimes we all get more or a similar amount in points to the amount of real money that we are spending, but this is down to Boots own offers - I think that black marks may be being placed against some staff rather than the customers!

I can just see an expose in the Daily Mail, with little photofit pics of all of us, labelled as Boots Tarts found guilty of gaining too many points on their AM cards! Please someone let me know that you think this black mark thing is a joke - it's just too much like infant school to be possible!

"BOOTS TARTS GIVEN BLACK MARKS"

look at these faces? have you seen them? do you know them? dont allow them into boots! theyre a menace and a scurge on society!

Right, which field operative is going to buy 3 packs of Bodyform with the 3 x £1 off vouchers and the 50 Advantage points coupon? :rotfl:
