BOOTS sale!

Heamol

Might help someone- I remember seeing on here recently that Boots Chocolate Coins were half price. I went to my local store and the BBE date for the ones there are April 2011. Just in case anyone else was thinking of putting them away for next Christmas.

Of course, they're good to use as non-gifts such as in hot chocolate or for making your own choccies

Hi Ladies, I am off to London this weekend and fancy giving these self service tills a go! Could anyone please tell me which stores I can find them in, thank you :-)

Liverpool Street Station, Victoria Station (concourse), Victoria Station (Cardinal Place), Bond Street (station), Sedley Place (next to Bond Street Station), Green Park, Oxford Street, Tottenham Court Road, Westfield Shopping Centre, Lakeside and Bluewater Centres (not in London, but I don't know how much time you have!), Canary Wharf, St Pauls (opposite One New Change - lovely cakes in the restaurant there!), that's off the top of my head.

Anyway, today I went to a fair few of them and boo-hoo, poo-poo! Mr B has now made it impossible for you to buy a £5.50 accessory, use your £5 voucher, and pay in 250 points. :mad:

I also asked at least one SA, on each floor, of each store, to try it for me on a manned till, and said, vaguely "I think sometimes the points have to be added on manually".

Zilch. Nein. Non. Nothing. So after having carefully removed the 250 points voucher from the gifts I gave people, or have bought for Birthday Present giving, later in the year (no point giving someone a gift, in July, with a voucher inside that expires at the end of January, or March!) there's nothing I can do.

I just can't see the point of not using a £5 voucher, in order to get 250 points added on. If someone else can work out a way of doing this, I'd be thrilled to know!

Incidentally, every store I visited was awash with Fern Cotton Hat Boxes, so I reckon they'll be in the 75% sale!

Our second box just turned up, no signing for it or anything, still shows at the DHL Depot!

How rotten is that They may just change their minds when their sales figures drop.

I am pleased that I didn't buy many No7 items in the sale now. It was a little perk ofr us taking the vouchers out of gifts for others.

I feel panic setting in as I have used all my points up :rotfl::rotfl:

I've always wanted a pair of Flip Flops but couldn't justify the cost of them! Finally managed to get a pair half price from the Boots sale! Bargain!
