    Went into local Boots and found a large Ms Make up hat box set priced at £15 but in clearance section. Got it price scanned and was only £1.87 so looked out for them at your branch. I have found 2 different types one has stuff for a manicure and the other has make up brushes and eyelash curlers in it.

    Hope this is useful to someone!
  • Hi, got the buy 2 botanics voucher and free pack out of the machine. Toke 2 bars of skin reviving body bar ( 99p each ) and asked if these qualified. The SA tried them on the till and it did'nt work. I asked to see the supervior and explained that the bars of soap were not a miniture or a sachet but a box so they should qualify. She said ok and i got the pack. So £1.98 spend and £6 kit free. Good luck.

    I know it's not much but every penny counts!! If you go to the Advantage Point in Boots at the moment and print out a coupon for a free packet of Cool Wipes. The Cool Wipes are £1.19 but the coupon is for £1.29 so it knocks 10p off another item you buy. So for example I got the Cool Wipes and I also bought a tube of Boots basic toothpaste for 29p. But the toothpaste came in at 19p because it knocked 10p off. Not much but better than nothing I suppose :rotfl:

    Oh thanks.

    I got my wipes this week and didnt notice. Was more interested in the fact that the half price eyeshadow I bought was reduced by another 50%.

    I used the £16.50 voucher today on the No 7 suncreams and bought 1 pack of No 7 face wipes and got 2 make up bags free, also got £20 mobile top up and got 2 skincare vouchers (seperate transactions).
    Wondering if you can use the £5 skincare voucher and the 200 point voucher that comes in the makeup bag, together?

    I used the voucher today to get some No 7 Uplifiting lotion which costs £15.xx, plus the new No 7 gift bag.

    The SA put the NO 7 lotion through first, then I produced the gift bag, which was scanned through, and then I produced the £5 skincare voucher, which he looked at rather dubiously, and then decided to scan it through.

    If there had been a Geisha box around, I would have tried to run that through as well as I suspect that the coding on those may still be tied to No 7 purchases as a free gift... but this is speculation.

    It would have all cost me around £10, but I had a gift card, so I got it all for free, and very happy.

  • I've just been to boots myself and although the free wipes were priced as 99p in my store it did knock another 10p off! So recipt says -.10. I bought other stuff as well so bonus! I wonder what would of happened if I'd just gone for the wipes would the sales assistant given me 10p!!!!!!????
