I put a Palm Massager in my basket, just to check that the GWP would go through.
It shows the price as £24.99, less 50% - £12.49, then it adds 10% discount for Health Club Members and deducts a further £2.50!
And it adds the GWP! :j That contains a 250 points voucher (and a £20 Glasses voucher, saw them today), so in Boots Logic, you get the item for £7.49, plus a GWP! :j:j

This applies, as it does in store, to Boots own brand products.

If you are ordering 2 or 3 electrical items that are heavily reduced, and you can collect them in store, do them as separate orders, and you'll get a GWP for each!

Nice find sandra, unfortunately most of the no7 electrical items are rubbish.
(We must start to write a list for what gifts contain points vouchers for the sale.):TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
:T fortune with those less fortunate :T
:T than themselves - you know who you are!:T0 -
Can you be over 60 and have a child under 2 years old LOL0

I seem to remember some woman of 63 having a baby a couple of years ago, and lied about her age to get IVF. So the answer is ...... I don't see why not!!
Incidentally, I've tried using it on P & P and the discount won't kick in. Obviously they feel over 60s may use Palm Massagers, should they so wish, but must not be encouraged to use P & P!!

The GWP does, and lots of the No 7 Christmas gifts do. The Skincare Treats is a great buy.
3 x £15 (£45 so 2 x GWPs, each containing 250 points = £5 in Boots Logic)
Each Skincare Treats contains the points, (£7.50 in total), so you pay £30, get £12.50 back and so you get 3 gift sets and 2 GWPs for £17.50 !! :j:j:j
Thanks to Boots and Debenhams, I've finished my Christmas Shopping, I have loads of points to use, and money left over, which I can spend on lots of lovely Christmas Lunches with friends, using 2 for 1 coupons via MSE of course!

The deduction is now kicking in on beauty items as well.

Just to mention, the 10% is deducted from the original price. This definitely doesn't happen in store.
