Boots £5 facial skincare voucher

    I also had multiple vouchers accepted in the same transaction today. I handed over a Sanctuary detox mask (£9.99) and a Sanctuary facial wash (£6.99) together with two £5 skincare vouchers, expecting them to be put through as two separate transactions. The SA scanned both items, followed by both vouchers, and told me the products were on 3 for 2. I asked if I could go get another item - she asked what I wanted (another facial wash) and went and got it for me. I paid £6.98 for £23.97 worth of products, and was given another £5 voucher.

    As I already had another couple of vouchers in my purse, I went and got another 3 detox masks, and went to the till hoping to get the same SA. Unfortunately, the till next to her became free first. I handed over my 3 products and two vouchers, expecting to have a struggle getting it put through - all went through fine, no questions asked, so another £29.97 worth of products for £9.98, plus I was gven another £5 voucher, so I still have 2 to use, presumably on another 3 for 2 combo! Would be great if you're putting together a skincare hamper.

    Don't you just love Boots. I'm guessing this will be very much dependent on the SA, but the fact that multiple vouchers go through the till suggests that you could potentially do this on the self-service checkout.

    :j:j:j

    Wow! Has anyone tried using more than one skincare voucher in the same transaction on a self-serve till? That seems it would be the easiest, but sometimes a voucher that works fine on a regular till calls for assistance on an SS Till. These things expire Tuesday, so it would be good to know soon!

    OMG! I have about 12 of these to use. Do they work on self scan or not?

    Possibility that you could use SS tills, three items on 342 and use 3 vouchers (one per product), and ending up with one for free AND another £5 off? xx

    The T&C says 'only one voucher can be used per QUALIFYING item'. So the SS will accept these, all of the vouchers now have this term apart from the No7 (too many good deals on 3for2 etc). I bought three sanctuary skincare box sets (£16 each) on three for two and used a voucher for each box.

    So, you could get three of these hot cloth cleansers (£10 each) for £5?

    Please report back of this works! Are you going to try it on a self-serve till?

    Nope - will try at manned till, as SS tills in my store usually panic if you try to put thru too many vouchers in one transaction. Hope to pop in early tomorrow, so will report back.
