    Got my regular mailing vouchers, but not the one nellie mentioned.

    Having said that, I didn't buy much in the run up to Christmas and they sent me (in letter form) two vouchers, one the 250 points wyb any edt, but also 250 points wyb into the 342!

    They really are trying to tempt me back...

    Xmas Saver!
    to be honest I don't think anyone really knows whats happening about the 75% sale, I in our main Boots town centre _ retail park, talking to the cashiers about the sale, I got different answers from both -

    one girl - heard it was today, another next week, a different one said they don't know if the having as they have cleared a lot of the stock out with the 50% sale, and the last (positive) was that it could be next week.

    In all honestly Iwas quite disappointed with what was left, - our end there was a lot of the Fearne Hat box sets, and the subberto (excuse spelling), sets. - got some bargains, but compared to last yr, I had 4 big blue bags full, spent about £120 last yr, save vouchers and points - hit the sales, this yr 1 blue bag, 1 basket £135 gone - managed to get £120 again so it only cost £15 on that way I'm plzed. x

    On a similar note, sorry if in wrong place - I used my double points coupon yesterday then tried to use it again and she said I couldn't use it twice in one day. Is that always the case? I've never heard that before...

    I got these vouchers before Christmas and I had still spent a bit at the shopping evenings but maybe not as much as previous years, did a bit more online shopping with bodyshop, all bargains posted on MSE :p

    Yes this is always the case, I tried last year on 75% sale day had never done enough shopping in one day before to even think about using it twice. ;)

    There was a thread earlier today (been moved) as a Boots worker posted that she had seen a letter sent out stating that there would not be a 75% sale. People's opinions are mixed over this;) If you type Boots in the search engine you should be able to find the thread if you want to have a look:)x

    Is this even english? it reads like jibber jabber!

    PoundsandPence- Welcome to MSE !. Am sure you didn't mean anything by this.... ;) and I don't wish to offend but ,posts can sometimes come across in a different way than they were intended ? Your post sounds a bit harsh... I am guessing that like most of us, Mum2one was multi tasking at the time of writing! I am notably bad at multi tasking (and admit it ! ) and have been known to send peeps to Tesco for bargainous Tetley teabags when in fact it was PG Tips:o.:) The poster was kindly letting us know her thoughts..... and that's welcome here x
