Ok here goes I'm a little old school when it comes to boots, get vouchers from machine use them at till don't think about it too much(got quite a large stash of points saved over the years, keep saying gonna use them on big splurge, but then hold of and use a little here an there)

Not that long found this thread and have been trying to work back but think I'm just confusing myself more
I need help with "the magic 3" can be a bit thick sometime (38 week baby bump doesn't help much either

I got today 1/2 price No7 glycolic peel voucher and also the free No7 Illuminating powder.......HELP what else do I need to do??

Would really appreciate somebody giving me an idiots guide and just telling me what to buy and how to do it

Oh also got the baby mag today with the 20% mini mode voucher does this defo take an additional 20% off the price that is already reduced??

Thanks

vouchers are even better its 20% off of the original price plus the other reduction so say something is reduced from £10 to £4 instead of just another 80p off of the £4 its £2 off so the item would only be £2!! I am now holding on to find a voucher somewhere to buy supply of clothes for toddlers in family as its better than their online offer (20% off when spend £20) plus ive seen more items reduced in the stores than online.

Has anyone been offered more than one highlights voucher from the ACM? I had mine a few weeks ago before I knew about the magic 3! I have the new peel one which I don't really want (got a couple of the line lift ones that have now expired) but would love to use it along with a highlighter one, 342 and my £5 off cosmetic one.

i got one a week ago that expired the day i got it :mad: so not any good at all and ive not had any of the others at all :mad:

I visited a rebranded Alliance Chemist that is now able to give and take all Boots vouchers.
During the first 6 weeks of re-opening, the store has been giving out these vouchers:
£2 off wys £10 and £1 off wys £5.
It may be worth checking out any newly refurbished branches ladies, as they may have similar offers.

I bought the No7 Intelligent Colour Foundation @ £14.40, plus
No7 Perfect Light Translucent Loose Powder,
which is usually £10.30. Today it was reduced to a lovely £2.50.

I used the £2 off wys £10 instore promo voucher,
£5 off wys £10 on No7 voucher,
£1 off wys £5 instore promo voucher.
So I saved £8.00, which left £8.90 to pay.

I didn't use the 3 4 2 as the cheapest item I had was only £2.50 and they didn't have any other reduced items.
But I am very pleased with my shop.

I got the latest £5 off skincare Wrinklie too, which I hope I will use wisely.;)

So the loose powder was already reduced to £2.50 before you started handing over vouchers? If so I wonder why this has been reduced to this price? I really hope this doesn't mean it's being discontinued :eek::eek::eek:

Think I might send Mr Buffy to Boots at lunchtime...:rotfl:

loads of clearance disposable cameras in Southport yesterday - kodak £8.80 reduced to £2.41 then BOGOF;) also full 6 shelves of No7 reduced and still 3 for 2.

I have lots of peel vouchers and £5 off No 7 - any ideas please as to what works out cheap with just those two?

I have the same vouchers and from what I can work out there isn't any great deal. The peel isn't a cosmetic so you need to but one for at least £10 so then you pay
Peel £8.xx
Cosmetic £10.xx less £5
Total £13.xx

You could get something else No7 to make the 3 for 2 but from what has already been posted I think it would need to be cheaper than the cosmetic you buy so the cosmetic doesn't become the free item.

I worked out what I would want to buy and the total was about £42 and after discounts it would be £18.20. I decided this was too much to spend to "save" money.

Personally, would go to SS tills as on the manned tills they might b funny 4 u using the 342 combo with the Highlights Powder which is already free... might just happen they tell u to get a 4th item & this would mean u end up paying more... re which voucher scans 1st I don't really think it matters but would probably put the Highlights one 1st in case n e issues this voucher would have already been scanned... HTH & Good Luck!

Or go the the photo counter and "bury" it within loads of nappies and milk.:D

Sorry if this has been answered, but I got one highlighter voucher last time, and I got another one this week after changeover day on Wednesday, plus more peel vouchers, and the £5 off No7 too. All of mine are valid until 19th May.
