I have just been to the Woking store - and what a hassle again! Second time of trying to use vouchers from the machine etc and NONE went on. Firstly I bought the self tan wipe (100 points) and this didnt go on. Then I bought huggies wet wipes (150 points) which again didn't go on and then I tried to use the pamper kit voucher. I was there for ages! In the end the points were added manually for the wipes, but I said I didn't want the self tan wipe because she said she would have to refund and put it through separately (and I was on my lunch). They hadn't got a clue about the pamper kit (supposedly!). On a brighter note, I bought 2 lots of Botanics foundation which was reduced to £2.50 but actually went through at £1! they are next to the rimmel stand on the end for anyone who goes to Woking!!!

i too tried the huggies wet wipes on saturday, when it didn't work she said it was because they were on offer (bogof):o so i might have to take them back now.

It's slightly o/t but be really careful with the glycolic peel, I would advise doing a small patch test for a couple of hours.
I got one which turned me beetroot red and itchy, then my friend tried and found the same (worse for her as she had to go to work!)

Oh my goodness! Thanks for letting me know. Did you try and return it?

Maybe thats why then, although the team leader put them on manually for me. At the end of the day you have bought them as per the voucher and you should persevere til you get your points

it was Woking store that I had problems with too. They are lying about the pamper kit - they knew all about on Saturday when I was in there for a good 20 minutes trying to sort it out!!

Thanks for the tip about the Botanics foundation.

Thats ok - you have to look carefully on the shelf as its packed with loads of clearance stuff and nothing else seems to be labelled. It's really nice foundation too :j

I think I shall try for the kit again then and stand my ground

Yes I called the customer care line and said both of us had a bad reaction and they advised me to return it to the store and I got a cash refund, then they also sent me a £20 giftcard in the post.

My mum has tried it though, and it was great for her, so I guess it depends on different skin types?

the wording on the voucher has now changed - you have to spend over £5 on botanics to qualify

could i ask about this voucher cuz not been in boots for a month, which botanics voucher, how do i get hold of it? and secondly would i get the botanics pampering kit with my pregnancy botanics voucher?
thanks all

There is a voucher in the Advantage Machine for a free weekend pamper kit (worth £6) when you spend £5 on Botanics face and body products.
