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 You win some, you lose some!

I am thrilled that you got the glitch to work!!! :j:j Good for you! So, evidently, it hasn't been pulled yet.

Do remember that if you are not lucky enough to get the 500 points voucher, you can still just use your skinny with the Olay, and pay 86p, so you're still making an excellent saving on, say, 10 tubes of £50!

I used the machine, and the best it could offer me was a 300 point voucher when i spend £30!! - no way!

Am i right in thinking that the ACM only gives you new vouchers every wednesday?

I e-mailed customer services to moan about not having an ACM in my local branch, thay replied very quickly and appologised for this, saying smaller stores didn't have the room for them (although my store has a weighing machine and 2 photo kiosks!!) they very kindly said they would give me 250 ponts as a good will token, and all I have to do to claim them is, wait for it...

put my advantage card into an ACM and they will autommatically be added!!!!
Am I missing something here??!!

LOL

Snap! My local is just the same, plenty of room for a weighing machine & a whole photo dept & still no ACM! Everytime I get a customer questionaire I complain about it but no joy so far!

hmm, not really sure!
There seems to be a big block of new vouchers on changeover day (monthly), then random ones seem to be added, well, randomly!
It's worth checking fairly frequently, I got 3 of the Olay vouchers on changeover day, then 2 more appeared a few days later. So keep checking and I hope you, strawberries, fuzzgun and jazzteddy get the Olay, or another equally fabby voucher
As with most Boots things it seem to be very unpredictable, next changeover day for the acm is (not sure about this) 12th Aug ( please correct me if I'm wrong)

SandraScarlett

Yep, changeover day is tomorrow week, Wednesday 12th August, so if you can get the 500 points vouchers and/or skinnies, you need to use them by next Tuesday, else there'll be done ................. for ever!

Hi, i just wanted to ask wether when people are using two skinnies in one transaction if they beep and you just have to have angel sas, or they do actually go through pls? The reason i ask is that although i haven't been blessed with the 500 points i just thought it would be easier to combine vouchers rather than have seperate shops, but ive tried in a few stores in Brum with no luck. Also has this worked on any ss tills pls? Thanks for your help folks.

NAB - no beeps at all on manned tills - SA said managment had told her it was OK. The mannded till even allows you to do more, ie; 4 skinnies and 4 Olays (but you can only use 1 Olay points per transaction, or it beeps) BUT it does depend on the SA knowing that more than one can be used.
It does not seem to work on the SS tills, it says "voucher conditions not met" and calls an SA over who will have to take you to a manned till.

You will only get one skinnie back from you transaction though, whereas doing it one by one will give you a new skinnie each time. hth
