New Boots £5 Facial Skincare Voucher
Comments
-
I tried this morning to use my skincare voucher on the Sanctuary facewash plus two items from the 3 for 2 indulgent bathing, hoping the cleanser would count as part of the 3 for 2, but SA said I couldn't do this. I did the same thing with this voucher before Christmas, so things have obviously changed.
The miniature cleanser is on the shelves along with the 3 for 2, so rather frustrating.
Here is the list of items from boots that are on the 3 for 2 indulgent bathing.

Thanks Patwinning, that'll save me making a fool of myself at the checkout! The cheapest item where this would work with the £5 skincare voucher is the thermal mask at £10.20, there are a few more expensive items too.
Boots seem to be getting a bit stricter than they were previously, and not giving so much leeway, which is disappointing.:(0 -

Ah, I'm not getting that voucher when I check ACMs. In fact I'm hardly getting any vouchers, but I have got a couple of 100 points when you spend £8 on facial skincare I saved from a while back, so I could use that.0

So you could use your £5 off voucher and 100 points on anything from sanctuary over £8 or do the 3 for 2 as i posted above and get an extra £1 back in points xYour greatness is measured by your kindness; your education and intellect by your modesty; your ignorance is betrayed by your suspicions and prejudices, and your real caliber is measured by the consideration and tolerance you have for others.

My voucher doesn't say Youth Code... tried it on a manned till and the SA said no.
Might try it on a SS till.
:D:D I agree, it would be a total bargain if it worked. If anyone manages to use it on YC, let us know!!!
Right I'm new to this so if this comes out all wrong I'm sorry!
I work in Boots so thought I might be able to help. When the vouchers first came out they had L'Oreal Youth Code printed on them as part of the deal but they weren't supposed to as they are already included in another money off offer.
The vouchers were changed so that Youth Code was not included but if you have a voucher that states that Youth Code is part of the offer than staff have to let you use it for those products.
Hope that makes sense!
Also cleanser, toner, wipes and eye make up remover from Olay, L'oreal, Roc and Time Delay are excluded as are all minitures and sachets.
Theres still a few good deals on Time Delay and Sanctuary skincare.
TD Wrinkle Reduce eyecream is 2.14 with voucher as is the Radiance Booster and theres a few other things that are about 3.70 with the voucher. The Sanctuary Hot Cloth Cleanser is still 5.20 with the voucher but it's really nice and comes with a muslin cloth (woo!) :Tand I think theres a face wash that comes in at 2 pond something.
Anyway I hope that's been some help and I havent waffled on too much but like I said I'm new to this!0 -
Thanks for this Tulien. Has anyone tried the Time Delay Radiance booster? If it works it's a good buy for £2.14Right I'm new to this so if this comes out all wrong I'm sorry!

Ah, found it at last..............the Bootsing thread

I have 3 of these blessed £5 vouchers and it seems to be getting more and more difficult to find something CHEAP to spend them on. I swear the TD range has increased in price since the Good Old Days. I well remember the gallons of free hand cream, wipes etc etc that filled my cupboards.Ellie :cool:
