Boots Grabbit Bargains part 2

V_Chic_Chick

I posted this on the consumables board, but am also posting it here so more people see

If you have one of these £3 off vouchers for professional haircare (If you don't have one, spend a fiver) and then go to the advantage point, there is a voucher for 100 points when you buy any 250ml Trevor Sorbie product, which are £4.50 each.

This makes it 50p each, which is cheaper than the own brand

Bargain!

Yes i figured this yesterday when i was in there. I went in with my £3 voucher and after checking ac machine got a 100 point voucher so used that too. Just make sure it adds your points though as on my shop i had items and vouchers to get 400 points but it only gave me 200 so the rest got added manually. Their 31p pack of 5 disposable razors which are also bogof you can use the 100 point voucher with so you are making more money than spending.

Note that Boots are no longer giving out the haircare vouchers. The current offer is spend £5 and receive a double photo voucher (one part has £2 off digital processing, the other side £2 off film processing).

Still have a haircare voucher to use up myself so will be buying Trevor Sorbie I think! Thanks OP

In the recent summer mailing I received a voucher for 100 points on Soltan or No7 sun products. Does anyone know whether I can combine this with the £16 No7 parenting voucher and still get the points?

Well I'm pleased to say this worked. I got the £24.50 no7 suncare pack free using the parenting voucher, picked up 4 free skincare treats, and used the 100 points voucher. It all went through the till!

It was a hair raising experiece - I managed to pick up the only suncare pack without a barcode on it so it wouldn't scan. I was served by the Group Operations Manager who knew exactly what he was doing and I thought I'd never get away with it. :eek: He scrutinised each voucher, but didn't check how much the suncare was.

Just thought I would mention Boots return policy on returning vitamins..... as they are classed as a food item most SA will refuse a refund. This happened to me last week ( did try 3 different stores). I phoned boots and they told me it was at the discreation of the manager as they are a 'grey' area...not quite food or medication which they clearly state a non return policy.
Boots did on this occasion refunded me with a gift voucher after I gave them the ' i spend a lot of money every month here'......(which I do).
So be careful when buying these! xx

Not misprice of the century - but! Farleys follow on milk, on offer for £8.50 for 2. but for some reason i just paid £8.48. Plus 500pts and free delivery.

Just to let you know as it is on another thread there is a good glitch on Boots.com.

At present it is free delivery on any item and here is the glitch it is giving you 500 bonus points when you buy any baby or toys (it is only meant to be given if you spend £50) Also it is double points as well.

I have ordered three lots of cotton buds on seperate orders for 50p each but getting back 504 points per order.

Not sure how long the glitch is going to last for so take advantage whilst you can!:j
