    manchester boots today had ran out of organisers as I had the last two they said. I had one and 2 no7 lip screen (bogoff) and got 250 extra points -£5 voucher and paid £10.49 and got yet another £5 voucher and lilac bag.


    Then OH did the exactly the same thing so we ended up with 2 lilac bags with extra point vouchers in, 2 more £5 vouchers and 2 magazines with extra point vouchers in.

    I think we might have done a bit better though if I'd had more time.

    Completely forgot to look for the avene bag as was in a rush.

    I'm just going to read the returns policy as I dont really want some of the DR stuff I got before and am hoping to change it all for other things we'll use.

    I used my parenting club med bogof voucher yesterday and got both £6 products free. I was worried that you needed to use the med preggy voucher at the same time for it to work but you dont :)

    Got 2 x £7.50 bogof no7 sun & lilac bag (4th bag for me) £2.50 to pay after £5 voucher but young SA wouldn't let me use 250 bag voucher! BOO said not allowed to be use with NO7 £5 voucher :( so bought 2 x tan wipes sep to put 2 x vouchers through.

    I havent use my 1/3 off nat collection voucher yet - but by the looks of an earlier post the till take's a 1/3 off the total before bogof def be trying this next time i'm in boots.
    e.g. £3.99 x 2 = £7.98 - 1/3 = £5.34 - £3.99 bogof = £1.35 to pay

    Also easy4men voucher said 100 points but ony 50 points added on receipt.

    I want an organiser - any in broughton retail park anyone???? or oswestry???

    I am not a Boots tart but I want to be. Could someone tell me how you find out what is on bonus advantage points? Are they advertised in the store? Because I thought that the Brita filters had bonus points on them but there was nothing written in the store that I could see, and also nothing mentioned online either. Or do you need to get a voucher from the machine?

    You need a voucher from the machine for the Brita deal.

    I've never taken anything back to Boots so need some advice.

    I wont have a receipt for anything so do I have to exchange goods on the same day or can you have a credit note? (so I can save it for bargains I do want)

    What do you think is the max amount of htings to return in one go to not have an moody sa?

    Shall I wait to return DR until its full price again or do you think Boots will stop selling it for any reason? (I'd still be quids in even if I took it back now as all of it was bought with the vouchers but I dont like the smell anyway)

    Ant other tips?

    thanks

    The Boots return policy states that you can only exchange without a reciept, but when I've returned things without a reciept I have been given a giftcard with the current selling price.

    However, some crabby SAs have been known to make up their own rules; some will not let you return an item to a store which does not stock it. Others will follow the policy and insist that you can only have an exchange.

    Personally I would not return more than 5 items at once, but this is entirely up to you. If you have a lot of items, you could go to different tills and split them up into lots.

    Oh and if you get a crabby SA who tries to stop you returning the items by saying that they are classed as cosmetics, tell them that you were informed by HO that the products are classed as skincare, which is a beauty product.

    Could you not do a lot of bodyform transactions and get 50 points each time . Though there doesn't seem many bodyform with vouchers left in EK or surround?

    only 14 transactions ?

    If you go to the superdrug at argos yes there are loads of vouchers on them and 2 for £2:j then go redeem them at boots.

    Hi

    This is my first post hope it works OK. Iwent to Boots, bought the buy one get one free no 7 sun product asked for the lilac bag but SA said no you haven't spent £15. Why didn't it work out for me? And used the No 7 voucher £5.
