Leeya, did you pay with points? If so, you don't get a voucher, otherwise you should have got one. If you had divided your shopping into 3 you could have got 3 £5 vouchers. (1 for every £5 spent).
I had my first dabble today, spent 1 1/2 hours, mistakenly paid with points twice before I understood about the vouchers . Managed to get 2 with more items. Got some botanics and the last No 7 burgundy bag. Picked up 4 magazines and was let out by a security guard as the store closed. Just as well, I needed to come home to try and work out what to get tomorrow!
If anyone has the booklet from parenting club with a voucher for a free disposable camera, they are on BOGOF so you get 2 free cameras!:D

In Chester the Botanics stuff seems to be scattered all around the store but I eventually found loofahs and body mits which are pretty cheap if there are no Body Bars (there ARE NO BODY BARS!!!) Or Lip Balm is only £2.50

Couldn't get the 'Moisturising' Sugar Scrub - SA seemed confused 'they wouldn't give away something for £5.99 if you only bought that (body mitt)' so I got the eye cream instead . . . £6.99

By the way - the store looks as if locusts have been through it - virtually ALL the Christmas stock has gone. But I got some lovely tea lights for my birthday so my SIL had obviously been there!!

i was in chester and wondered which MSE had been at the body bars!!! i got a lip balm and face cream for free!! the girl in there wouldnt even try the BOGOF 342 no.7 but the one in Bhead did and it worked!!

The lovely girl put mine through realised there was a glithch called manager. She said it must be a overlap of 2 offers & she would look into it today.

So you may have to be quick incase it gets sorted out.........
Then again maybe its a ploy on boots part to get rid of stock they no longer want :rolleyes:

Can i ask what the Meal Deal is and how come you can accumulate points quickly? thanks

Meal Deal is £2.99 for a sandwich/wrap/sushi + a drink + dessert/snack. Usually works out 50p - £1.50 cheaper than individual prices. Whole deal cheaper than most M&S sandwiches, and just as nice (or if it's the duck wrap, nicer!).

Accumulating points is quicker than in Tesco/with Nectar as you get more points per pound. Also with all these offers for extra points (100 points botanics, 250 points with No7, etc.) I always seem to have enough to pay for lunch.:D

I read some lovely offers in here, are there any for the online boots? I find it easier buying online

Meal Deals work out even better at the moment as there is an offer on if you buy 2 of the shapers drinks (2 for £1.xx) and also if you buy 2 of the shapers bars/crisps (2 for 60p I think it is).

On saturday I got a shapers sandwich, 2 shapers drinks and 1 packet of shapers crisps and a shapers snack bar for £3.16 - using the coupon from the change one thing booklet (I think its the blue one).

Not sure how it would work out if you wanted to buy 2 meal deals.. I suspect you'd get the 2nd meal deal discount as well. So lunch for 2 would be a bargain.

Don't forget to see if there's a points coupon in the machine, sometimes there is and sometimes not.
