    I tried to make a photo book, it lets you put it together with temp files while the pics supposedly upload. It also wouldn't let me save my work until I'd slotted all the pics in. So I did and then it still wouldn't save as none of the pics had uploaded! Very frustrating, haven't gone back to try again yet.

    Hi does anyone know if this offer is still running was just going to order some things to get a code but can't see the offer on boots site.
    Thanks

    There is a link in the OP that takes you to the offer, it is valid until September it seems. I ordered 3 packs of 16p paracetemol to store and collected them last Friday, each had a leaflet in the box with a one off use code, plus a free small sample of Boss aftershave.

    Best to upload all the photos you want to use first, and then make the book.

    I tried doing it while the photos uploaded but it didn't work. And even when I uploaded all the photos I wanted to use, I needed another one to fill the book, and it just wouldn't upload this single photo, it just kept using the low resolution version.

    I did them on separate orders, so each order came in a box with a leaflet.

    Is there a limit to how many free photobooks are available? I only want to order one but if lots of people take up the offer will i miss out unless I order straight away?

    I still want to scan some pics but have to wait until my mum is out so I can sneak them out of the frames!! The book is for her christmas present!!

    Thanks in avance

    Hi,
    I ordered a box of cheap paracetamol. There was no voucher in the box. I called up the helpline and they said the offer was over! But as a good gesture they will send me a Boots card with money in it for a photobook. Did anyone have such an experience?

    That doesnt sound like boots at all.

    Even when you have a big massive order with them you struggle to get any help with missing items, exchanges etc.

    And even if they are feeling generous its usually only a couple of hundred points.

    I think you may have been mis-informed by Customer services as my friend had the voucher in her Boots delivery, which arrived Saturday, so the offer was still on then. I would have thought it would have been easy enough for the Customer services rep to just give you a code off another leaflet via email, as it is says the code is valid until 30/9/2010.

    I think I'd place another cheap order to see if they sent a photo voucher before I spent that money on the boots card -- you could get the voucher and then use the boots card money for something else!
