I went back to get a "Revlon Charlie pack" whick was £1.75 yesterday(fantastic price for spray, nail polish and a camera), and was £3.50 today.
I went back to ask at the desk, the the sa got a manager round, who said "it is the wrong price, it should be half price, even though there were tons under the 75% off sign.
Went to another boots, and the shuan the sheep hot water bottle cover is £7.00 instead of £3.75.

If you check on Boots.com the sunless tanning starter kits are on 3 4 2 and the hair spritz is on BOGOF, for both discounts to kick in you need to buy 2 items on BOGOF from No. 7 suncare range and 1 item on 3 4 2 from No. 7.

Hope that helps for next time.

Just for clarification, I'm assuming if I bought 2 of the glossy locks sprays (£5.50 each) and one of the sunless tanning starter kits (£6 each), the cost would be £1.50 in total, after using the £5 voucher? Sorry if that's totally wrong, btw, I'm a real newbie at this

hia was wondering if anyone can recommend any shampoo,conditioners or styling products from the ranges that the haircare vouchers covers.

i got a few to use and would like to get some decent stuff i got coloured hair which is quite dry and frizzy and i straighten a lot.
thanks for all ur help. this site is great got loads of prezzies my boots is tiny and noone sems to know about the 75% off stuff good news for me although didnt get toom much as bought heaps when it was 50% off.

Hi, I colour my hair alot too and it can be quite dry and 'flyaway' so I got..
John Frieda 'Frizz ease' Emergency Treatment (little red can of spray stuff)
John Frieda 'Frizz ease' Serum Finishing spray (small clear bottle)
and Lee Stafford Shine Head Spray Shine. (big pink can)
I also got lots of other bits and pieces (nice shampoos etc) but thought these few ideas might help. I am sure I didnt pay more than £1.50 for each one when I used the £3 off voucher.
Good Luck

Know this is a little o/t, but just ran into my head on reading all the posts here on the horrible staff in Boots.

Have a lovely friend who works in job centre and he said some staff in m&s can be horrible as they are treated bad, get low pay, etc, so just wondered if its the same situ in Boots?

I know a Boots sa but wont ask her why she hates her job:o she hasnt even done the sales this week though, she just wants to get in, get her job done and get back out as quickly as possible.

Just been to Boots in Whitgift Centre Croydon. The cow....Ooops, I mean SA...at the No 7 counter refused to let me have the gift bag with lipsticks on as part of any deal/offer. And the SA on the till gave me a filthy look when she saw the total I had to pay....I got No 7 Glossy locks (£5.50) and Lip/Eye shimmering Screen (£5.50) plus the limited edition lipstick (called 'whisper', priced at £6) for £1 using the the No7 voucher.

The above post explains how annapantscats got the No. 7 glitch to work.

thanks jess for the info on parenting voucher will now have to join and as you know my baby is due in say......three months!!!! I too have list forboots and a little bag with all my coupons in. i must look very suspicious as i lurk in the aisles trying to make sure i get every single discount going!

No problem, but i think you have to be less than 28 weeks pregnant so make sure you choose a date later in the year, also forgot to mention the no 7 voucher entitles you to any product in the no 7 range up to the value of £16.
Website is https://www.boots.com/parentingclub sorry don't know how to do links. Hope thats a bit clearer.

Before i forget, got the No.7 electrical face and body massager free, was half price down to £4.99 and used a voucher to pay for it it, didnt seem to be any problems with the transaction as was making a mass purchase with umpteen vouchers at the time.

Also used the 25% stop smoking voucher from change one thing, trying to make dh quit, sa said nicotine replacement stuff is buy one, get 2nd half price, so hope this helps someone else who is trying to quit too!

And in the acm, there was a voucher for half price Walkers Baked crisps.
