    (maybe November, when the new No7 gift starts? Just a guess though! :o)

    offers usually change on a wednesday on a four week cycle. beauty offers due to change next week then healthcare 2 weeks after that

    You are only allowed to buy 32 pills at once which is 2 packets, its a new law that came in a while back to prevent people buying / taking too many pills at one go.

    go to the pharmacy tills-the pharmacist has the discretion to sell you up to 96 paracetamol in one go

    I too was a lucky one to receive the voucher for 1 free packet of always freschelle and 1 half price pckt in the post. I followed Boglin's example (see earlier post) and took advantage of the fact they are signed on the shelf as being 2 for £2 in boots at present.

    They scanned my shopping including the always but they came up on the till as buy one get one free, the 2nd packet going through as .00.:j I then handed over my vouchers, the 1st free one went through ok, then they couldn't get the half price one to scan. So they saw the price of them as £1.58 and roughly halved that and manually put in boots coupon .79p deducted.

    So i ended up with £1.58 off 1st pckt, £0.79 of 2nd pckt.=£2.37 off. So effectively i got 2 packets and 79p profit!! :rotfl: (they didn't notice this as it came off the rest of my shopping costs!!)

    Hooray for boots:T
    Mortgage free 04/03/2025. Thanks to this site and lots of overpayments bit by bit.

    Can anyone help me please? How long after you order from boots.com do the points get added onto your card? I placed the order 24/9 and it got delivered 29/9 last friday so i popped into boots yesterday and stuck my card in but no points and i have been checking online and my pending points are 0 when i know the points for this order should be 3861:confused: am i worrying too early as i though that at the least they should have shown online but nothing.
    The more i save the more i can spend:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    gk172 should be 5 days after you receive the order but can sometimes take a couple of days over that. Maybe give it another couple of days then query it with them.

    Funny that... I went instore today to collect 2550 points.....didn't get them, checked online 0 pending, I just sent them an email. Im sure that my order was placed around the same time as yours. email them or give them a call, everytime I have had to contact them they are really great, best customer serice I've ever come across.

    50 points on £50 spend..xmas62
    750 points on a £75 spend..xmas63
    1000 points on a £100 spend..xmas64

    Placed order on 24/9; no points yet. Was planning on just waiting but seeing the other posts I think it might be worth me emailing CS.

    Plenty of Thermacare packs at Braehead boots - and it works with the 39p Paracetamol Caplets. My mother in law buys 3 boxes of these a week, so thats Christmas sorted!!! ( Only joking.....)
    No Longer addicted to Boots! - Well not today anyway!! :blushing:

    Officially Mortgage free 31/07/2017 , 12 years early :j
