I'm not sure if this has been posted elsewhere already but Boots are offering 1000 extra points if you spend £75.00 online today only.

It's done automatically (no code) so you can use a code at the same time. I just ordered £80 worth of stuff and got £19 in points

Might be good for those of us who can't make it to the shopping evenings?

Hi - just placed an order - the 1000 extra points goes through automatically but it wouldn't accept any of the other codes listed.

The gorgeous feet offer sounds great.. as iv used these products before when i got them as a present and they were good so would be perfect for a christmas present.. However, I have been into 3 boots stores and although I have the voucher printed off from the ACM.. I cant find the gorgeous feet sets that are 3 for 2.. Are they normally with the other xmas gifts or am I just being blind? Maybe its just my bad luck that boots in Northern Ireland don't stock them. Thanks in advance if you can help a confused me?!

I couldn't see them with the other gifts, but I did find them with the other gorgeous feet products with the 3 4 2 stickers on. HTH!

I used GENK92 for an extra 500 points and it worked ok. It was the only one I hadn't used before though so maybe that's why it worked as I think they're all one use only.

Went to boots today and got 7!!yes i repeat 7!! boots botanic things free with 7 packs of 31p razors.went to the assistant and got 3 at first and she said "that can't be right!!" (as though it was coming out of her wages!!)and i said "oh yeah innit a good deal!!" she wasn't at all chuffed.Then i looked to see how many razor packs were left and there were 4 d so i picked 4 up and went back to the Botanics shelf and was just putting 4 botanics things in my basket and the sales assistant went past and tutted at me!!The 2nd sales assistant was lovely and said "oh what a great deal"!!
so therefore i spent 31p x7=£2.17 and got £4.29 x7=£30.03 worth of stuff!!
not bad for a days bargain hunting.the only hassle was i left my advantage card in the machine and when i went back it had gone, but it only had a pound on it so hey ho!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I always try either the dizzy approach, or the hard stare approach depending on what the sales assistant is like, but like i said before it's not like it's coming out of their wages so they should put it through for you :mad: :mad: :mad:

Hi, I'm new to this Boots lark so thatnks for that. It sounds like some Boots staff have the same awful attitude as Tesco staff when R&Ring (See Misprice Discussion thread),

Could someone please clarify for me please, what Botanics do you get free with a 31p razor? Also - are these kind of deals hard to come by?

thanks!

joshtbh - the botanics you get free is Body: Golden Glow Body Lotion 250ml free with any Boots hair removal product - cheapest is 31p mens/women's basics razors. Put page 101 of the health and beauty mag under their nose if it's not advertised.

The deals are often hard to come by, but only in that the SAs are unwilling to give them to you sometimes - but I find fighting your corner and chatting to customer services helps!

Also - good idea to look back through threads for the info.
