    I'VE HAD A GREAT BOOTSING DAY!!

    The no7 parenting club voucher does work with the 6 for 1. By this i mean that it pays for the final item that you should be charged for.
    The voucher is the 1 that entitles you to 'any product to the value of £16' and is sent from the parenting club.

    Today i got
    3 x pvc suncare bag body items (£24.50 each)
    3 x pvc suncare bag face items (£19.50 each)

    The till did all the discounts and the amount left to pay was £24.50. I then gave in the above voucher and it left £00.00
    These items are worth £132, but if you chose 6 of the £24.50 bags they would be worth £147! This will only work untill tuesday though as the bogof and 3 for 2 finish then.
    Some people have been saving their parenting club voucher until wednesday when the free jewelry bag with £15 spend promotion starts, but this might change some peoples minds.

    AND THEN......
    i went to festival park to get more of the reduced botanics but it was all gone- but it didn't matter because i found a no7 light up make-up mirror reduced to £14.99 from £39.99 :T
    When i got to the till i was expecting him to say that i couldn't have it for free with my parenting club voucher (yes - i had 2:A ) but he just scanned it and put the box in a bag for me. He gave me the voucher back with my receipt :j

    I rang Customer Services about not being given a voucher, and was told pleasantly but firmly that the deal is 'while stocks last', and that stores do run out of them.
  • Went to Swansea Boots today - Finally plucked up the courage to try the 6for1- Was taking the suncare items off the shelf when the SA asked if I knew about the offer- Thought she meant the 2 for 1 but she then proceeded to tell me about the 6 for 1!!- GREAT deal- and no guilt!! Delighted!:rotfl:

    Sorry- should have said. The suncare bags were from newcastle under lyme. There were loads left even after i'd taken 6. Best to get them from the back of the store as the no7 sa is really pushy- she offers to save the no7 stuff for you while you go and get your other shopping- nightmare!

    then at festival park- The mirror scanned at £39.99, he quickly went to check when i told him it should be £14.99. The voucher scanned no problem.

    Well I finaly plucked up the courage to try 641 and it worked :j I also bought a couple of deodrants a frizz eaze leave in conditioner and a burgandy bag, got £70 worth of goodies for £15, the SA looked a bit bemused but never said anything.
    Thanks so much for everyone's advice I have a lovely boots stash now!!!

    One thing though as I'm new to the thread I am so intrigued as to why the lilac bag was such a good deal??? Can anyone explain and put me out of my misery???

    Dawn

    Hi Dawn, it was such a good deal and very sought after because if I remember rightly, there were a few glitches about at the time which enabled you to get it a lot cheaper than usual, and a lot of us did!

    It became at the time a kind of competition to see how many Lilac bags you could get, I ended up with about 10 :rotfl:

    Plus it had excellent items in it including the mini foundation that totally converted me, ( I don't use anything else now) and also points vouchers like the ones on sale now.

    One item I remember in particular was the summer organiser which at the time was £15.00 but had been reduced to £9.99. There was a N07 £5 off voucher if you spent £10 so we used that voucher and because the organiser was originally £15, we got that and a lilac bag with it for only £5!

    Hope this clears it up for you :T
