I had a problem with Botanics today - there was a foundation reduced to £1 but it didn't link save. Unfortunately as I was buying 6-4-1 suncare in the same transaction, I didn't notice which one hadn't worked until too late.

I guess I'll have to give customer services a ring - they've always been very good in the past with offers that didn't work out.

Well i bit the bullett and did my Bootsing today. No soaps or buffers left on Botanics so it cost a bit more, forgot to use 100 points coupon from mag also but still over the moon with my buys.

Transaction 1

Guiness gift pack (originally £10) cost £2.50
Botanics bodywash cost £3
Botanics golden glow body lotion cost FREE
Total £5.50 Saving £11.79 Got 22 points plus £5 No 7 voucher

Transaction 2

Manicure set (75% off) cost £3
Exclaimation played perfume (75% off) cost £1.72
Calming bath soak (75% off) cost 0.75p
Total £5.47 Points 21 Another £5 No 7 voucher

1 x Botanics night shift moisturiser (should be £5.99) FREE
1 x Botanics enriching body cream (should be £5.49) FREE
1 x Botanics response moisturiser (should be £4.99) FREE

If i've worked it out correctly i got £66.01 worth of stuff for £16.41.

Admittedly it could have been done a lot better but i'm still pretty chuffed with what i got. Going to go try the No 7 suncare stuff tomorrow as i have got 3 x £5 No 7 voucher plus 3 x £3 haircare vouchers.Any ideas best way to use these would be appreciated.

Thanks to everyone who's helped me to understand this very complicated subject!!!

Yes Rebecca.....post your vouchers to Jamtart

Hee hee!!

The frizz ease john frieda range is mostly £3.XX so with the £3 voucher it is less that £1 to pay in most cases.

...i was too tight to pay over £1 for anything in the other ranges!!!

some people are writing about taking items back and getting refunds
i have loads of body buffers which i bought to get free botanics cream if i return them do i need a receipt and will they question the fact i got a free cream and so not refund me?

Hello-yes i did try it the other day and it wouldn't go through for free. SA couldn't explain it, so I just let it go. Theoretically, it should work, but it doesn't

I'd definitely try it but it says gloss and I'm worried it would make my hair look greasy.

Can anyone recommend an item to get free with the Botanics Body Bar, I've got loads of the pots of creams, just fancy getting something I will acutally use!! Does the Body Sclupting Cream work with the offer?

I am pretty sure that the botanics offer excludes cosmetics and minatures........xx
