    Had the shampoo voucher on my partner's card, got 2 mini bottles for £2 but got charged 51p instead of 1p. I thought it would take off £1.99??

    Then tried to print it off another card and there was no paper in the machine and now it's not there anymore! Grrrrr!!!
    depends what u buy - presume what u got were 1.49 each? i got 2 that were 1.99 each & paid 1p, & another time 2 that were 1.59 & paid 41p (i think!!). it seems to knock the price of 1 off the $2.
    phone customer services re the lack of paper & hopefully they'll give u enough points to "buy" a mini to make up for it. worth a try anyway!!

    At Boots... it didn'y have a reduced priced label, but took corn silk face powder(pressed) to the till, and was only charged £3.84, instead of over £7.00 :)

    In the Lincoln branch, it's priced as a special offer of £6-something, but scans at the full price of £7-something.

    dunno about the toys but i do know u can't buy with points online. unfortunately!!
    re the toys though, some are already reduced - a few weeks ago i got little touch leappad reduced to 18.80, follow me bunny & poorly bunny half price each, 9 & 8 on 3 for 2 so 27.80 for 3, plus triple points plus 300 poionts for over 30 spend (got nappies to make it up). probably better than in january as what i wanted will probably be sold out by then! hope u get what u want.

    My daughter in law came to visit on Saturday and I told her about the minis.

    She didnt know the machines had special offers or extra points in and she's been going to Boots for years LOL.

    ANd I've started training OH. Sent him to two different tills with 2 vouchers and he did it but he goes red. Ahhhh.

    right u know the botanics body glow, well what size and colour is it please?

    What colour are the razors also please?

    Also - does the offer come off at the till automatically or do u have to argue the toss with the cashier that thats what the deal is meant to be?
