    i suppose even if you didnt have teh 50 point voucher (which i dont coz my new card aint here yet- was told 10 more days on teh fone this morning!) you could give 3 x £1 vouchers and would still save money coz 3 bodyform is less than £3 on 3-for-2!

    if you mixed it in with other stuff i reckon it would work!!!
    It should work as the vouchers state that you can redeem 1 against per pack purchased.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    just as general info for everyone, i spoke to Boots h/o because i bought some things on saturday but now need to return them, but as i had spent over £10 i received a £5 skincare voucher, i explained that if i now return the items the amount i spent will be below £10 but that i had already used the £5 voucher so what would happen. They said not to worry, the £5 skincare voucher is given as a "GIFT" and has no monetary value and that i am entitled to a full refund on the items even if it takes the spend below £10, they also said if i have any problems i am to tell them to ring their h/o!
    I hope this helps.

    I assumed they had taken down the posters to prepare for tomorrow, but I asked and they said no so didn't think to ask them to try it on the till. With that and the fact that I have had SA's reluctant to see if something can be marked as half price and come up as 3 for 2 (which I bet they will have done as they did on the website later, should have just bought them.) The second post links to a page which says to contact the store manager. Not too sure I can be bothered as I only missed out on £2 on the one I got and it would cost about £3 for the bus fare back up there.

    Oh well, I know to be persistent and ask them to try it at the till next time.
    I included the "How to complain" link in the FAQ to give the official line on complaining. However, nothing to stop you bypassing the store manager and going straight to Customer Care!
    A big learning process. How to get your money's worth at boots ;) I only recently discovered these posts about boots on MSE. Only problem is a) you need to check them regularly and b) products may not be available at your own store or any nearby.
    That's the thrill of the chase! :)

    I had a lousy time in Boots yesterday leaving me with less points than I should have had, more spent than I should have done (refunded in points by a very grudging Customer Services this morning with 20 points extra) and no opportunity to spend two skincare vouchers earned in there as arguing with the assistant left me no time before my parking ticket was up. I did try the out of town Boots so as not to waste the vouchers but they had been blitzed on the skincare aisle so I only used one at an extra cost of £2.95. (I could have used it easily for around the value in town).

    On the phone this morning the person I spoke to told me that the lad who argued against giving me a skincare voucher because 'it's ending anyway' was quite right to do so as they 'usually stop giving out the vouchers a couple of weeks before the end date that you can use them by'. I'm not very impressed at being told a load of interpretive rubbish, I respect the stated terms of their offers - and so should they.

    Oh and I also have the wrong vitamins because they're in identical packaging and were on the wrong shelf - I'm told it will be entirely at the store's discretion if they sort this out for me...

    I'm not in any hurry to give them more paying custom for a while.

    so i am i right in thinking that if i spent £10 and got the £5 no7 voucher, i could use my 250 pts voucher from the purple bag and the 200pts for no7 items from ACM ?

    So i could get a pack of wipes =£1 with £5 0ff,
    get 450 pts back?
    does that sound right?
