Does anyone think that Boots will accept the return of 12 Botanics Body Bars as they were bought by accident?!? :rotfl:

i used my last one this afternoon then panicked and went into a smaller boots and bought 2 reduced botanics (2 free body butters), reduced plasters, 59p frizz ease hairspray (used £3 voucher) and it all came to £5.16 - JUST SO I COULD HAVE A VOUCHER!!

I haven't seen any reduced Botanics in my local store - does anyone know if there's any in any of the Newcastle or MetroCentre stores? I need more stuff!! Really, I do!!!!

Can I ask, as someone relatively new to Boots (other than for nappy buying), what's the best item to use the £5 No7 etc voucher (from the little book) on?

I'm not a make-up type of person - I get totally lost looking at all the displays, and the SAs in my local aren't overly friendly, but I was wondering about cleansers or something.


Seems a shame to let it go unused

If you have a look on the website you can see what cleansers/toners/face washes are available and what is the best deal (so you know what to look for before going into the shop). I am sure some of them are about £6.50 so you would only need to spend £1.50 cash with a voucher. Or there is Glossy Locks hair conditioning spray at £5.50. (so 50p with your voucher)

Good Luck and have fun hunting!

Okay, I am going to give up my secret now. If you dont have any vouchers left (PANIC PANIC!!!) and dont want to spend £5 to get one...how about buying them off Ebay? I have bought lots. It has worked out at about £1.20 per double voucher (1 x No7 + 1 x haircare). I just got 4 x £5 off No 7 vouchers for £2.55 on a Buy it Now, and that included postage.

Thanks...I'm still dithering...seems too good to be true.....and one of the S.A.'s remembered me as a 'stroppy' customer yesterday

Must be brave, must be brave........

I bought the preholiday body buffer cream stuff - well had 2 in my basket The SA told me they were 3 4 2 and her colleague went to get me another one.

The glitch worked and I used my £5 voucher , total cost 50p


Had a great day today 6 transactions in 3 stores. Some very nice SAs

Spend £91 , got £38 in points plus £35 in No 7 vouchers and in 750 extra points vouchers for no 7 from 3 purple gift bags I bought (with £5 vouchers of course)

Total goods value of £401.:eek:

3 boxes of stocking fillers plus assorted presents for throught the year going in the roof tonight - run out of space all my corners are full of botanics or tesco toiletries.

May open my own branch of Boots soon!

Hi

The old style £16 No7 parenting club vouchers used to scan for the £24.50 sun packs so you got it free... now the vouchers have changed i'm not sure if it will still work. Whatever you do don't try this at the No7 counter the SA's there are usually !!!!!! hot on whats allowed and whats not allowed. Mix it in with your other shopping to disguise if it you're going to try it.

This is the bag.. http://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1057965&classificationid=1009327

I use the protect and perfect serum which is £16, well worth a try if you dont fancy your chances on trying for the bag.

Have a look on the website for more ideas before you go... theres some really nice ones you could pamper yourself - most of all enjoy it!
