Thanks for all these tips, we live near to a large Tesco and miles away from a decent boots so really only ever go in near Xmas. Thought would break the habit and go pick up a few things today.

Firstly picked up a Advantage card and armed with two No7 vouchers and £30 gift vouchers bought off ebay on the cheap I bought some Daniele Ryman products, some no7 lippy and nail colour and three gifts for two.
Went to the cashier and she put through one of the No7 Vouchers, I asked if she could take the other and she said she couldn't because of the free gift bag and gave me the first one back as well. Total came to £113.x which then came down to £23.20 after the vouchers and discounts came off.
She then put my No7 items through separately to use the two No7 vouchers.

Got to the car feeling really happy with my purchases to see that she had taken off the initial voucher and then given it me back so got to use it twice!! she also gave me the No7 gift bag as well. Was so overcome i forgot to open the bag to get the extra points but will remember to go back again soon.
Thanks everyone:T

Hello bootsavers!

I just came back from Boots, and I thought you should all know: the AC Machine is giving a 200 pts voucher for any Professional Shampoo or conditioner.

I heard that this was working with boots own range, so I picked up a Boots Basics Conditioner for 32p (I have never used the stuff but since I wanted to try the voucher I didn’t want to spend too much just in case)… and it worked!

So 200 points back for a 32p spend…£1.68 paid to take the stuff! The cashier was surprised because she said it wouldn’t work but tried anyway, and hey! It did!

Go get those points! (I wonder if I would get an other voucher…?)

Newcastle-u-Lyme Boots - botanics is on the shelf straight infront of the door and it says 'free with hair removal' and it still goes through with Boots basic razors, so got 3.

I think I mucked up in Hanley as I picked up BIC razors so it probably does work there with Boots own, although I didnt see any signs to say the offer was on

Danielle Ryman all 75% off in Newcastle today. Not much left though.

Honestly I don't know.... I just tried with the one bottle.

Vouchers usually give you one set of extra points, but there have been glitches in the past where you get extra points per item.

I don't know if this is the case, we'll have to wait for someone else to try it!:rolleyes:

I had the 200 point voucher last week, instead of the free miniature ones, and it's still there, only now it's just 75 points!!

Still, I think hubby, who DID get the free miniature, has a 200 point one.

Worth a try tomorrow.

i had a similar problem a wee while back and e-mailed to complain, they credited me 1000 advantage points as a good will gesture, apparently they do 500 just for compalining and go up if they feel you have a point, might be worth it if all else fails

do boots ever do ways to get points other than shopping, like tesco/pigsback etc - by siogning up for things etc? just a thought

What address did you email ?

I still had a voucher for the parenting club for a half price nappy wrapper. They normally cost £30. However, they are now for half price in the shop (£14.99). I used my voucher and paid with points. I was very pleased to see that the voucher took of £15 so Boots paid me 1 point for taking the nappy wrapper away!! Must say, think the cashier didn't notice because I bought quite a few other things. You might have to ask for the nappy wrapper because a lot of the babystuff has been moved for the christmas stuff, but they tend to have the item in their storage!

My daughter got a free miniatures voucher and the 200 points. I only got 150 points.

I bought 2 (not the Boots stuff though) only handed over 1 x 200points voucher and got 400 points added on receipt. But if it works for one brand then I would imagine it would work for the others too.
