Anywhere apart from Boots to use Boots vouchers?

npsmama

I know this might seem like a daft question but is there anywhere apart from Boots that will accept Boots vouchers?

I was given some but never shop in Boots and nothing in there interests me - somehow I don't fancy a year's worth of loo roll for my birthday! :rolleyes:

Could you not ask a family member or friend that shops in there to buy them from you? That way you havent lost out (Not sure if other shops do accept them, I wouldnt think that you can use them anywhere else, but maybe someone else can answer that!)

No you cannot use them anywhere else You could save it and give as a Christmas present, I put mine on ebay and got 9,50 for it.

So you never buy toothpaste, shampoo, cotton wool, medicine etc?

I do but not from Boots as Home Bargains is so much cheaper.
The other issue is that the people who gave me the vouchers expect a thank you letter detailing exactly what I bought with the vouchers and they would not be pleased at all if I bought household toiletries with them - they're weird people but they also happen to be my in-laws so it's a bit delicate.

What if you used the vouchers to buy Christmas presents (the 3 for 2 has started) that way you can detail what you brought but then 're-gift' the items? (just not necessarily to them!) Also don't forget boots sell quite a few food items/electricals not just smellies I used mine to print out some photos and buy a couple of photo albums - bogof currently, yes not the cheapest but not costing me actual money so I was happy
