    That's odd - wonder why it's added "rotfl" as well!

    Hey all

    You're going to want to shoot me for these questions but have just managed to sort myself out with the OH tesco clubcard vouchers lately and going to do some deals regarding them.

    the questions I have after reading a few boots vouchers are
    1) To get a coupon from an ACM does it take the points away from your boots balance?
    2) How many points/£ do boots give, and what are their worth?
    3) As a father to be, I have no doubt I shall be stocking up on boots items :) why would you "split your basket down into £5 batches"? What does this do?
    4) What are "skinnies?"
    5) Im guessing a till spit is a voucher on the bottom of the receipt? lol.

    Sorry about all the questions, but if I find out now, I won't be wasting any opportunity to money save at boots!

    Thank you

    Delete the gap/space between the ":" and the "r" (in red below) on your original post, and it will be ok ;)

    2) How many points/£ do boots give, and what are their worth? 4 points per £1
    3) As a father to be, I have no doubt I shall be stocking up on boots items :) why would you "split your basket down into £5 batches"? What does this do? You get a £5 till spit each time by doing it this way..
    4) What are "skinnies?" Above mentioned till spit, (nickname for them)
    5) Im guessing a till spit is a voucher on the bottom of the receipt? lol. It comes out as well as the receipt - seperate to the receipt

    Sorry about all the questions, but if I find out now, I won't be wasting any opportunity to money save at boots! No probs hope that helps

    Thank you Anytime :D

    Hi spike, 1 point is worth 1p, you get 4 points for every £1 you spend,

    Whoopie!
    Olay Ole x 4 !
    1st SA was lovely and even tried to do all 4 Olays with 2 skinnies and 2 points vouchers in one transaction, but that didn't work, so she split it into 2 and I got my points :)
    2nd SA (same store) refused point blank to do it, said I had to to do 4 separate transactions, luckily the 1st SA was standing next to her, and told they were allowed to use more than one voucher per transaction now. 2nd SA was NOT happy (I've had run-ins with her about voucher use before :cool: ) She grumbled that managment never tell her anything. But I commiserated with her and we parted friends (and I got my points), so hopefully that's one more angel SA in the making ;)

    But every which way we tried, we could not get the expert blemish gel to work :confused: You win some, you lose some!
