    Went to my local boots today.
    On all the reduced stands there were signs up saying that No 7 Vouchers cannot be used on any reduced number 7 products.
    There was also a sign up at the foundations saying that they could not be used with any foundations.
    Tried to use my magazine voucher on a mini extracts and was told no...
    Left with 2 packs of number 7 wipes:(

    Bellydancer - I opted for the Dove moc by post too, and I think it only took a couple of days to arrive. hths

    I didn't see that option Passion, but I received the email, so it appeared to recognise me IYKWIM, even after I cleaned the cookies.

    Too darn smart these sites now:p

    Does anyone know if the sales assistants let you use the 150 points vouchers on boots extract minatures AND the voucher out of the magazine, as in effect you're getting more points than pennies you're paying

    I have done this with no problems, the hard part is getting the extract vouchers from the ACM. Good luck

    What a shame, you could have taken 3 for the same price. The perkies appear to work, with 1 full price item and 2 reduced. I haven't tried it yet but others have.

    You could go back to the store with your receipt and they should give you the 3rd item, if you point out that you weren't aware of the 342 offer. I have done this in the past. A lot of SA will point this out, but not all:p

    (If you did get the 342 just ignore me ;) )

    I did this twice today but it wasn't on the miniatures, it was on the body wash which was 1/3 off so £2.60. Both times the assistant said..." I don't think you can use the mag voucher" but it worked, so 300 points for a £2.60 spend and some yummy body wash!

    Hi all

    Went into Banbury store today and found on the clearance shelf;

    Clean & Clear shine control daily face wash @ 98p

    used the acm 100 points on clean @ clear so in boots logic was paid 2p to take it away.
    They had about 4 so i took 2 and have left 2, so if anyone's in the area might be worth a look!

    I've done this combination with no problem at all on SS tills, but it will be SA dependant (ie dependant on them just swiping the vouchers without reading the back of them).

    Hi all, just wanted to let you know that I received my Slimfast smoothies today and they have an expiry date of 11/2009.

    HTH. x
  • I now have a bit of a dilemma which I wondered if anyone could please help me with?!
    I have really itchy/sensitve legs :o:o and can't seem to find a product which helps! I'm thinking of trying s&g flake away although it appears to me more of a scrub, or (as the points offer is on) an extracts body butter. Can anyone please help me choose between the two or recommend a different product? I might be persuaded to buy them both but wanted to get some reviews first!!!

    Thank you! :A
    SNIPPED

    Hi there, sorry if anyone already said this. I'm catching up in my lunch hour! I have always had really dry and itchy legs, until I started to use No7 cocooning body balm. Now my legs are as soft as a baby's bottom and don't itch at all. Its £12 ish, but obviously you can use a perkie at the mo.
    HTH.

    ... snipped


    Still recovering from the London trip so I might be imagining this, but did anyone see a mention that Boots would be announcing some sort of aid to slimming in the near future? Like some wonder drug or something?
    Tia - off to catch up :)

    Tell me more, and can you pay for it with points :)
