    Thanks Netty. I bought some of those little Natural Collection £3.99 bags on BOGOF a few weeks ago. They made really nice gifts and will be even better at £1. Also, talking of Natural Collection, out of interest, there is a nice pink bag with three bottles and some other bits in, it is £6.99 in some Boots and £11.99 in others. It annoys me everytime I see if for £11.99 and think someone might be wasting £5 so easily!

    Hiya

    I had these vouchers yesterday. I only got one Botanics hair mask as it stated that the Botanics skincare is BOGOF but I did not try 2 so I am not 100% - someone correct me if I am wrong.
    The £19.50 sets are scanning as free and bogof and unless you get an SA who knows how much everything is in the store and checks each transaction and then reads every bit of the voucher then you should be ok. ;)
    There is a pregnancy body butter that helps strech marks etc. but I am unsure if this is bogof as the normal med. range is. Did you get a bogof Med. range coupon? If so, what many people have been doing is using the pregnancy med. coupon with the bogof coupon and getting one pregnancy med. item (there is also a purple bath soak) and then 2 normal med. items all for free! - It also seems that the best med. item to get is the gift sets either at £8 or £6 as you get them both free. Be careful though I bought one at £8 and one at £6 so had to pay £2 difference which I wasn't bothered about as it worked out at £1 each but you may not want to pay anything.

    Also - if you have a third off natural range coupon it is taking off a third of each item as they are also bogof. I bought 2 heart gift sets with 3 mini shower gels in for my daughter and her friend and paid £1.?? (they are usually £3.99 each!)

    HTH a little

    I've just been reading your advice on the pregnancy vouchers and i still cant get my head around the mediterranean vouchers :confused: (it's been a long day!! :o ). Is the med. range currently on BOGOF in store? I'm assuming that you have all been taking 2 med. products to the til, the til then deducts 1 product as free (store BOGOF) and then use the BOGOF voucher from the mailing to fool the til into giving the 2nd product free? Im a bit worried Boots have cottoned onto this glitch and dont want to try it incase it doesnt work especially on a busy Saturday! Do you all use the £5 med voucher on a separate product another time? All sounds very promising if ive got it right :o

    then thought we would have a water filter got the 500 points voucher (brita) from machine then proceded to find the cheapest one, found one at £6.97 and snapped it up. Didn't realise till i got home, it was a kenwood but the 500 points were definatly added!! :T :T

    I can understand this was untintentional, but to anyone doing it intentionally this may be legally considered fraud as you are not purchasing a Brita item, and using a Brita voucher. Be careful people, bargains are all well and good but outright deception is wrong!

    Hi

    I am going out into watford boots today where it is quite a big store over two levels, this is my first real tart outing, and wondered what to get. I have 995 points and a £10 voucher?

    Have a baby boy of 2 so could get wipes and / or medicine for coughs as both mine have one.

    Some help please would really like some freebie and extra points!

    Also could someone send me the clinique voucher?

    Thank you

    Carli

    I bought 4 No7 Suncare BOGOF yesterday with two lilac bags. When I got home the 250 points No7 vouchers had been removed from both bags! And, I made a point of choosing bags that looked like they hadn't been opened.

    contact customer services & tell them the main reason u spent so much to get the bags was cos u knew they had 250 point vouchers inside & how disappointed u r. they might compensate u in some way - worth a try!

    Got no idea about the Watford boots cos it's not my neck of the woods!
    However my advice would be buy the medicine with extra points first with your voucher, cos then you'll have more points to spend on your card. Have a look at the first post in this thread. Liverbird updates all the current bargains there - see if there's anything else that's of use to you.

    You don't get extra points if you pay with points, so use your voucher for any extra points offers, and then spend them on your card separately. You do get BOGOFs or 3 4 2s tho, so if you are getting any of these it may be more worthwhile to pay for them with points.

    Also see if you can find the clearance section, cos that's normally where the best bargains are! The clearance stuff normally has orange stickers on it, and can be found in all kinds of different places in my local store. :mad:

    Hope I haven't completely confused you - Have a bargain filled bootsing day! :beer:
