Do Boots do pricematching now, then, Fluffyscruffy? If so, can you tell me where you saw / read about this so that I can go to my local store, already armed with the information that they will insist upon having.

If it is NOT a general offer, and something you just tried on the offchance (& were lucky!), then GOOD ON YER! If maybe enough of us pluck up the courage to follow suit, we can convince Boots that it's a good idea.

Suzy_Babe, Boots are a bit hit and miss with price matching at my local store, depends which member of staff I see and which side they got out of bed but its always worth a go!!

Question for everyone...

I've just received my boots advantage card through the post, and attached to the bottom of the letter is a coupon that says it gives me double points on two occasions up until 30/6/05. My question is, does anyone know if they will accept them during one of their triple points weeks? (So I get 6x points!!!) The terms and conditions do not really say either way.

Thanks.

Sorry only double.

But nice try tho...........lol

Not sure if this has been posted before, but Boots Meadowhall in Sheffield, are doing 1/3 off all toys. although not those already reduced...(I got a bucket of lego for half price)
Seems a pretty good deal if they have what you want for kids birthdays etc...

Spent £25 on shedloads of pampers to get extra 500 points, great offer, the instore machine had vouchers for a free pack of boots sanitary towels, not everyone's cup of tea but free none the less!

Weeeeeell actually... I've used a double points voucher during triple points once! Don't know if I was just lucky, but the girl on the till was very helpful Am not sure whether you get x6 the points that way... think it's *only* x5

And just to make sure, has everyone on this thread seen Foxy's post on the Voucher forum re: a voucher in the new Boots mag for a free foot cream??? It's in the Skin Science range (or whatever it's called) and I've had extra points vouchers for the range in the AC machine for donkeys... Wonder if it's still there...

he he, I got free tampons. do you think they moniter what you buy, and give you the relevant type?
and does anyone know if you can get more then one voucher by returning to the machine the next day? I'm not local to Boots, so can't try.
we could stock up!

They are supposed to accept the double points voucher regardless of triple pts weekend as it shows on the receipt as a separate line but a lot of them seem to refuse it for some reason or other whilst others don't so pot luck once again ***sigh***....

PS Boots Liv St had the Botanics range makeup for clearance as many stores getting rid of it clarifying foundation at ...£1 even had my colour but only in the tester ...my colour is no40 Star Anise (If anyone sees any within M25 - please let me know) -They're £5 each at Picallily Circus

Got 2 free Body Science foot creams today. Hope they've got loads of stock Had to go to 2 different checkouts, and the first girl was really snotty, "You're not going to get any points for this 'cause it's free!" (I wasn't buying anything else and gave her the card, hoping for points, obviously! ) Oh well, I'm not complaining.

No free tampons for me - and generally really rubbish offers in the AC machine, a total spend for £25 and something for Neutrogena.
