Sorry forgot to mention in last post.

They also awarded triple points today instore

i got triple points today too! and the £3 vouchers, they aren't valid against gift sets but i used mine for botanics for men.

i picked up 2 FCUK gift sets reduced to £3.50 for somebody as a present, i thought instead of spending £7 it would be a good idea to buy 3 of the little me 14.99 gift sets, pay £5.98 for them, get 660 back in points and use the points to buy the FCUK, therefore it would cost me less in points than it would have done if i hadn't been paid to take away the little me gift sets plus i got a £3 mens grooming voucher and bought hubby an antiperspirant for free got to the till and everything went through fine, then said i wanted to use points to buy the gift sets and they came up at half the price shown, so 175 points each, with a link save so for some reason i got the pair for only 262 points, very odd. the woman behind me tried it on other reduced FCUK sets and they all came up at half of the reduced price with a link save

Wow that's fantastic I ordered some clarins yesterday but missed the extra 2000 offer! Never mind I've done so well out of boots thanks to you guys.

Been into boots this morning and they are now giving out £3 mens gift vouchers for the first time! Which is great as I've started buying the mens Botanics for Fathers Day :0) It's off quite a few things, FCUK and FCUK Sport and several others I can't remember right now.

Did try the voucher against the FCUK sale gift sets, but they didn't work but was worth a try!

was the voucher a spend £10 get £3 voucher or were they giving them out as you went in or was it from the advantage machine.. thanks

Apologise for not being very good with my info - I spent it as soon as it was handed to me! I think it must be when you spend £10 you get a £3 mens gift voucher, the same offer as the Skincare voucher that stopped today, but worth less. Still a good offer as many of the Botanics skincare for men is less than £3.

I hope that another MSer may not have spent theirs as quickly and will be able to fill you all in with more details.

if anyone is interested boots are currently selling ruby & millie mascara brushes and powder puffs for £3.50 but come with 250 points.if you add 6 of each to your basket you get free delivery.by using the extra 1000 points code they actualy give you 4504 points for an order that costs you £42.so in effect they are paying you £3.04 and you get the 12 items free.

Dont know wether this should be here or on the online coupons board, it really belongs on both!

I noticed that on the back page of the June mag is a code which gives you a 10% reduction on garden furniture when you spend £20 or more. On the Boots website there are some garden sets with 20% off this weekend and some that are 3 for 2.

I havent tried it yet but I wonder if the two promotions would both work together? Anyone going to try it?

There is also the 1000 Boots code for spends over £40 so you would have to work out which was worth more according to what you were buying, 1000 points worth £10 or 10%. I dont think that there is space for two codes???

Not sure wether I am alowed to put the code here but if I am allowed I will edit it in. PM me if you need the code but have recyled your mag!

And of course you get triple points and free delivery. (Wonder if you get a £3 mens toiletries voucher as well!)

Boots have an offer now on, three for two on all dental products. I noticed that on the back page of the June mag is a voucher to save £1 on Colgate 306 toothbrush valid until July 15th. These are £3.19 each so 3 brushes are £6.38. I dont know wether the system would allow you to use three vouchers (or two maybe or just one?).

Also you could use a 10% off voucher if you could find one so that would be another 63p off (or 95p if the Boots computer went via the total spend...?)

Plus triple points this weekend.

(Not tried this out but thought these speculations might be useful for someone. Our dentist has converted us all to spin brushes, couldnt use a manual brush again

Boots have a 3 for the price of 2 on all dental products including Colgate Oxygen toothpaste. You could use the 50p voucher from the Colgate website to save even more. My boots accepted my coupon OK, just tapped in the barcode.

Plus its triple points weekend and there are still a few of the 10% off vouchers around in a few stores.

(Colgate oxygen was on special offer on Monday, and the cheapest size, 50ml was 79p but I didnt check today, not on the Boots website)

Boots seem to be incredible stingy on the bagged mags that include the 10% voucher - I picked up one at a till point the other day, haven't found a single one since.
DOn't even seem to be that many copies of the un-bagged mag around either, just a handful, not shelves-full of them like there were with last month's copy.
