Hi all

Just returned from boots. is this new policy or did I get an awkward SA.
from the ac machine I had a voucher for 100 points off a £15 shop and a voucher for 100 points off no 17 self tan.

The SA refused to accept both vouchers, told me I could only use one voucer per transaction. I pointed out that one was for a particular product and the other was for points over a certain spend but she was having none of it. I made her cancel the total shop and put it thru again as 2 seperate transactions.

On a seperate note, I know it was lunchtime and busy but there were dozens of women all trying to use up the £5 voucher. All crowded around the TD, Olay etc display. Very little left to buy under or just over the £5 mark. I ended up getting 2 x TD facial wipes. Then I was given another £5 voucher with todays shopping, so went back and got an olay moisturiser (only £1.49 to pay).

Also thanks to OP, went from boots over to Debenhams and got the clinique freebie.

i think cliniqure are gonna send hentch men out to me! i musty have cost em thousands by now! (expecially with teh copy and paste word trick for teh coupons!) haha!

Where are all our roving boots reporters?

Maybe their identity has been uncovered and are currently having their card surgically removed and their minds erased "you do not shop at boots, you do not know what an advantage card machine is" :rotfl:

Not going into Boots until tomorrow but it is quite concerning that no field agents have reported back into hq yet....

Did you notice if the Toni and Guy pallettes were still 2 for £7...I wonder if they are still going through and even better with 100 points...

Are you sure you're doing a drama course and not a journalism one!

I hear that the Sun pay their caption writers fairly well - perhaps you could get a part time job Unless of course we're all the subject of an expose (there should be an accent on the final e - not suggesting anyone's a flasher :eek: ) in the Sunday papers :rotfl:

Depends on the SA's in Wilkinsons. I had one who said as the voucher was for a £1 that it could not be accepted as the goods where only 99p I was.

All they needed to do was put it through as a 99p voucher which had been done for for me only 20 mins before by a different SA's.

I wondered that but couldn't see 2 for £7 sign- couldn't find palletes either as I was hurrying. My teenagers are on a non pupil day today and cramping my style by wanting me to take them to their friends, get them the money I owe them, etc etc.
Don't seem to understand my wider responsibilities to Boots.

The skin clear voucher from the ac machine offers 100 points but if you purchase the face masks for 89 pence you get 11 extra points free.

HTH

hi
just been to boots and only thing i could find worthwihile but certainly not a "glitch" was the 100 pts for skin clear, their cheapest is 89p for face mask so technically you get 11 p back , not very good i know but could still can be classed as a freebie.
also till not letting more than 1 token be used each time so nered to do in seperate lots

Do they not understand that you had to file your report by a specific time! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
