Looked in the Canterbury Boots yesterday and it says 3 for 2 offers do not include Blades and Razors!!

Thought I would give this offer a miss as I already have the non-electric version of this razor,a Gilette Titanium and disposable Extreme 3 free from the manufacturers and I think that my money will be probably be better spent on the blades when they go down in price!!

Thanks to the OP and others though!!

If anyone is interested in this I would point out to the SA that on the receipt it is described as Fusion Gift and the 3 4 2 poster says exlcudes razors blades and gift included in the 3 4 2 promotion. This is a gift and isn't included in the 3 4 2 promo. I think once you have your receipt and it says 'multisave' and manager will refund. I have always found Boots to be very fair and reasonable on issues like this, unlike Tesco managers who will tell any lie to get out of it.

They have some left in Stafford. I got one for £9.99. I did try the 3 for 2, but that came up as £29. How do people get these for £20?

Thanks to the OP.

£10 for a stocking filler?! :eek:

You must have very expensive stockings!

Yes, mine are all teenagers now andfor several years i have been unable to get away now with filling their stockings, little cars, choclate coins and crayons and boxes of raisons and their stockings are huge so even just collecting bits and pices from the pound shops and sales over a few months I must spend about £20 to £25 especailly my daughters, all the things she likes are very little eg make up and jewellery. And I have to make sure all three have exactly the same number of items :rotfl:

Hi all,

Glad to hear some of you got the bargain, but I apologise to those who didn't. I went to a mates on Thursday and tried their local store and it had been taken off their tills too. When I told them I had received it on a 3 for 2 the day before they virtually accused me of lying! A quick word in the supervisors ear did the trick, but she would not allow the 3 for 2 either oh well, worth a try.

Personally I think it is misleading, as the wording says '3 for 2 on mens, excluding razors, blades or gift packs marked with the green parcel sticker (christmas gift sets mix and match)' Was told these are regular stock and are not part of the christmas mix and match so these gift packs do not carry the green parcel sticker, and therefore I personally reckon they should be included in the 3 for 2 offer. Might be worth pointing this out to the SA.

All the stores were medium to large stores we visited, including the store that prompted me to post the original message, although they now have a sign up saying it is excluded from the 3 for 2 offer. Bet other MSE'ers have been giving them hassle

Got three of these today for£19.98 as they were on a shelf which had 3 for two all along it. Had a bit of discussion about razors not being included but sa was very nice and refunded one back onto me card.

Hello Mary, i just had a look at the Boots Xmas gift Guide, it dosen't appear to be in it. They only have the Gillette Fusion Capsule ( Manual razor and Hydragel ultra sensitive gel ) at £9.99 and the Gillette Fusion Bag ( Manual razor,Hydra gel and Smooth aftershave balm) at £12.99. They do have the 3 for 2 parcel next to there listings.

Got one today with my free £10 pigsback voucher. Couldn't be bothered to ask about 3 for 2. It isn't starred on the receipt suggesting there is no offer and the signs instore were carefully placed to avoid suggesting these were 3 for 2

They had loads of these in Meadowhall yesterday. Wish I'd got one!

May have to go back today.

None in Barnsley.
