Boots bargains

jtz

just back from boots...naked body butter scanned at full price and the acm expert coupon beeped with 2 for £5 anti-redness serum! am soooo annoyed!!!:mad::mad::mad:
has this happened to anyone else too?
Am on the verge of calling CS; why do they give out coupons that don't work!!!!:mad:

Saw lots of ellemacpherson reduced, lots of fcuk rduced and lots of NC reduced....all 342 by the way too....loads left...didn't get any as have too much anyway!;)

HTH
p.s. can someone explain the naked body butter glitch for me...does the SA have to scan bot for the total to come to £1.50 for both?
TIA

I managed to pick these up last week, they were reduced on the SEL at £1.50 but on BOGOF it has to be the 400ml tub not the 500ml tub. hth.

Go to a manned till (it doesn't work on Self Service), present your 2 wash thingies, then 2 x £5 off vouchers, followed by your 500 points voucher.

so can we use 2 vouchers in 1 transaction?
Why cant we use SS?
Thanks

I was wondering this too, how will they let you use 2 skinnies in one transaction and if they do them separately you wouldnt get the 500pt.

Yes, you can, when "can" means, will the till let you do it without making nasty bleeps, and if you have a nice willing SA, they will be pleased for you! :beer:

I don't know why it won't work on SS, it just doesn't! I tried it, and after I scanned the second £5 coupon, the till bleeped and the message appeared "Qualifications not met", but, for some reason, known only to Mr Boots, this doesn't happen on a manned till. :j

I spent some time, well about 3 seconds, trying to fathom out why this happens, but I'm just pleased to have saved £75! :T HTH

Yes, if you did it separately you wouldn't get the 500 points, but it does work with them both together.

I don't know why, and I can't take the credit for it, cos I'm positive I read it on one of the threads that OPs managed to close down but can't quote it, cos I can't find it.

That's why it's such a shame that Grabbit has gone. The whole point of it was to share bargains, cheer if peeps found amazing things on Clearance in their local branch, be a wee bit disappointed that your branch never reduced anything to get excited about, all in the knowledge that there'd be another glitch round the corner.

There have been instances when OP have found a way to use the coupons from the ACM and my SAs haven't accepted them.

Often I haven't received these coupons anyway, and I have always read, through gritted teeth, the posts when folk have complained about their mailing coupons. I'm yet to receive a sausage!

But that's the way it goes. HTH

Hi all managed to pick up a bottle of 50ml edp Ange ou demon by Givenchy for £23 paid with points , this is great as the 30ml bottle in the same store is £31 so not sure whats going on there but hey i was pleased. Also slightly off topic but can i humbly request that we stick to posting our shops / glitches etc as we dont want this thread shut down or reported to abuse like the others. Thanks everyone and happy bootsing.

judy, I used a SS till spit and a normal tillspit with every transaction I did. I used them in a store without SS tills;) The SA didn't even notice they were the same vouchers:Dnever been refused once
