    I have always had the coupons when spending £10 on phone credit. I got £20 of phone credit for my Dad recently and asked the SA to do it in two seperate transactions. I got two vouchers.

    In Lincoln Boots today, lots of Botanics make-up reduced, upstairs loose on the shelves eg foundation £2.50, lipsticks £1.75. also had lipliners and glosses.

    But nothing extra off the rail of half price Osh Kosh children's clothes.

    I got 3 £16.50 vouchers off eBay for No 7 items

    Got 3 x No7 creams at £16 each

    Got 3 x Gift bags worth £32 each

    £144 worth a goodies for a £7 outlay on eBay

    ...and christmas is nearly all done for me now!!!!!!!!!!

    I have to add that I had to put them through individually ( 1x cream, 1 x bag) as when I tried all it wouldn't go. SA was very nice and said she wished she could get a bargain like that, lol

    Staines Boots have free sample sachets of Botanics Eye and Lip Correction Serum that you can just help yourself to. Not sure if this is in all stores.

    But if I buy, for instance, sun cream £24,50 and No7 wipes £6 and use £16,50 voucher, the till may deduct just the £6 from the total!!! :confused:
    It worked for me 3 days ago! i just pay the £6.00 for the wipes as the 16.00 No7 voucher works on the 24.50 box of three sun creams! plus 2 purse gifts because you spend £30. Gift per £15 spend. The SA told me only one but i said ive spent £30 so i should get two asked her to scan it and see if it goes through and it did.

    It is much easier to see other people's failings than our own.

    Got my botanics mens stuff today with 100 points and pamper kit, once on my voucher, once on OH's. SA was very impressed at what good value it was. Thanks to OP for that.

    I got nasty with the SAs at mine - they refused to do it, 3 out of the 4 assistants all agreed it should work, the 4th was confused, so I politely asked for thier customer services number and the voucher back and shall have a word about misleading information and false advirtisement. I used the shave gels (first assistant tried to argue the mens thing until I pointed out it does not state that "this cannot be used in any other offer" or anything, and the woman behind me was someone who had done this at another store, and she was joining in the discussion!

    Very unhappy with Bootsromford, even more by the fact it took them ages to find which pack it was meant to be!
