I still have some No.7 250pts vouchers and 300 pts vitamins/herbal vouchers left from the no.7 bags. Any ideas for the cheapest or best deals I can use them on?

Thanks honey,
It isn't about my card but I've used that address anyway, maybe they can forward my complaint onto the correct department.
After trying to charge me for it, a store manager refused to supply a second magazine to me unless she could remove all coupons from it. How Bizarre is that!

I would like to thanks to everyone who contributed to this great thread last week I got 5 x 99p body bars (in light green box) with free various moisteriser as follows (probably repeating of what people already said, sorry :P )

- night shift moisture creme 50ml £5.99
- Face defense moisture creme 50ml £5.99
- moisturising eye creme 25 ml £6.99
- Responsive moisture lotion 75 ml £4.99
- Moisturising body balm 200ml £3.00
I bought something else to make it over £5 and got the £5 no.7 +£3 hair products voucher. also just get magazine and realise I forgot the 100 points botanic voucher.

Today, I went back, there is not body bars left, but found 1 shave gel so first transaction, I got
- antibacterial shave gel £1.37 with free body butter £5. with 100 points from magazine voucher
- Lozenges BOGOF £1.35 with 100 points from magazine voucher
- No.7 Quick Thinking 4in1 wipes (£6, use £5 voucher so paid only £1)
- Trevor Sorbie Volume Shampoo £4.49 use £3 voucher so paid £1.49
Altogether this transaction costs just over £5 so I get another set of voucher.

So second transaction, found body bar in dark green box but when I took it to the till, it won't linksave, SA are very lovely and helpful (they always are at my local store.) but as I already got loads so I tell them not to bother. Then I got £6.50 No.7 gift bag where I read from here that someone used with voucher so paid only £1.50 but the voucher did not work (I already expected that since the voucher states not include sale and gift set.) so in the end just bought Lee Stafford Poker Straight Shampoo £3.99 with haircare voucher and paid 99p and also get another magazine. There are lots of magazine left at my local store.

So I am well-stock in botanics products and very happy. still don't know what shall I buy with another no.7 £5 voucher and looking forward to 75% sale on monday.

I'm still using the botanics offers and always get the free 100pts plus various moisturisers for spends of £0.90 - £4.00 ...daren't look in my 'spares' cupboard!...no fuss made by the SA's but I have occasionally had to go and swap a product that won't scan for one that does...I tend to confide in the SA's that the offers are 'difficult to understand' to get their sympathy!...although some are starting to recognise me

Still using the 100pts on BOGOF etc offers on coughs and colds but again I have to act confused and ask the SA's to scan through just to check

Also used my first Bionsen £1 off voucher...is it any good?

A couple of questions I've not got resolved yet though...why as a new Boots card holder do I only get a competition to Aussie on my offers and not all these other wonderful ones posted?

...and only jusy managing to start looking at the No7 offers for my multitide of £5 vouchers and £3 hair care vouchers...whats the best deals?

1 x Botanics mens oil control 12 hour moisturiser
1 x Botanics day shift moisture lotion
1 x Botanics day shift moisture cream
1 x Botanics night shift moisture cream

Thanks everyone on this thread. Today I went to Boots and got a meal deal, reduced botanics item (can't remember what) £2.49 and a reduced pack of dairy milk chocolate and put everything through. Got 100pts from mag, free body butter and £5 no 7 and £3 hair voucher

Then put through a baby annabelle outfit marked on shelf at £9.99 and a big sign saying everything on this display half price plus reduced benylin chesty cough med 50p. Annabelle outfit came up at £12.99 so manager called and I showed her where it was fron, anyway apparently wrong outfit and not half price but as it was their error she let me have it for £4.99

so got this http://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1068855&classificationid=1042198 and medicine for £5.49 plus £5 voucher and £3 hair voucher. Hurray for Boots

What is going on with Boots SA's at the moment? Its not the customers fault that they have 2 Botanics offers (coupon and freebie) running at the same time. A previous poster did put a Boots SA's point of view a few pages back but I'm sorry, there there are only a certain amount of bad days one can have. Manners do not cost anything and should, in my opinion, be used at all times. I'm sure no one on here is deliberately obnoxious to any SA and after all we are MSE'rs so of course we are going to take advantage of their offers. Sonee and Ayrehire-guy should not have been treated in such a disrespectful way and personally I find there is no excuse.

(SuperNoodle now gets off her high horse!)

Good luck all those who are Bootsing over the weekend!

Can i ask, is it just me or are the acm's being really appalling at the moment? Tried my own and my mums card yesterday and had nothing to show for it.

I got some of those today when the online order arrived - do you know if they can be used with the £5 No.7 voucher?
It says 'cannot be used with any other offer or discount', but I'm not sure if spending a voucher counts.
