    We were in Boots a couple of weeks ago and OH was eyeing up the sunglasses .I said wait till a voucher comes out.So we left them.
    Bad move ,he went into Sunglasses Hut and spent £64 on a pair of Oakleysbrick-wall-017.gif

    oh no! £64 is a lot of money dotchas. I hope they are nice:D

    I'm going to name the new voucher (if it is the glasses one!) a dirty. It ain't no use to me at all:(

    Don't fancy the No7 gift much ,I prefer bags to boxes and none of the contents catch my eye.Am I losing my bootsing mojo?

    Think I'm with you there. And the idea of spending £20 on no7 :eek::eek:
    now has her .com delivery but doesnt know where to put it :o
  • Well all my binnies went exactly there today...couldn't find anything in store worth spending money on.
    And not excited over the sunglasses voucher either - come on Mr Boots, give us No7 vouchers and we'll spend loads more on those!!!
    :heart: I have this theory that chocolate slows down the ageing process.... It may not be true, but do I dare take the chance? :heart:

    No use to me either.

    Nobody is going to keep making up spends to £5 as how many sun glasses does one person need. :confused:.

    I dont think I'll be in Boots much this month unless there are some other good offeres on.

    They are nice (thankfully nicer than the £120 ones he tried on first.) But £64!
    I can't really grudge him as he has a pair of Raybans he has had for about 6 years.Hope these last as long!

    Maybe the new voucher should be called a "sunny"
    How long does it last ,when do we get a decent voucher........half price suncare would be nice (and BOGOF of course)

    Dior, D&G, Chanel, Gucci, etc. etc, you can never have too many pairs of those. Do they sell any of the posh shades in Boots? :)

    Sunny or Sunnie would be a good name Dotchas if its sunglasses vouchers. :)

    They might do another voucher halfway through the month as I cannot imagine the sunglasses one is going to attract many people. I won't be using it so it will make me think twice before spending a fiver there!!!!

    I got a 500 point voucher for signing up to this in my mailing with a barcode ending 316 and the 500 point offer in the mag has a barcode ending 089..... Being the experts on these matters can i ask you guys what do you think the odds are on getting both sets of points on one card?


    Hi russetred I tried both in the one transaction on a Self service till, and it would not accept the mailing one. It said 'conditions not met.' But it was worth a try. :)
