Hi Folks,

Sorry to be a pain, but I've read Bedshaped's first post and I can't figure out what the 6 4 1 is on - is it all suncreams? People have mentioned lipgloss too? i take it they've got a bogof and a 3 4 2 working at the same time?

Help please

take a look at post 1 explains it all

I have just spent 2 evenings reading all these posts! I signed up to the newsletter a long time ago but have only recently looked at the forums and am very impressed. I have always made use of my vouchers but have never done anything one quarter as clever as anyone on this board. Sadly my purse was stolen last week with two vouchers and my Boots card in it amongst everything else so I havent profited at all yet this time around but will know what to do in the future. I am off to Boots tomorrow in Chelmsford however and will do the Botanics offer plus I have vitamin coupon and a 20%off electric toothbrush heads that I plan to use. Am just hoping that they will still have vouchers - we do have 2 stores so that helps.
Once again, thanks everyone for a fantastic read, I am very impressed with the help you give newbies and your patience given that you end up repeating the same thing many times over!
Is there a Tesco thread similar to the Boots one? I am very keen on Tesco points! Many thanks again.

Oh yes! Several! You must read the one on refund and retain (if they've priced it wrong, you get your money back and keep the product) This thread has lists of things people have found priced wrong, for you to try.

There's the discussion thread about this that gets rather heated at times:

Another one on scanner locations that you can use to check the price before you buy so you know you're going to be overcharged...

There's also one on points and tips about points etc.

I'll stop now, because this is a Boots thread really...;)

get your reciept validated to add on points when you get your card back otherwise get a temporary paper card and that way you can use coupons and vouchers straight away-its worth having 2 cards as you get more offers and more chances to use them.Try and find a boots magazine to get the 100 points for botanics and also have alook at the change1thing booklets they have vouchers and points inside which you could use.Its worth ringing customer services if you are not able to get another card they might add some points as a goodwill gesture if you explain that you have coupons but no card so can't take adavantage of the offers.

There was no 5.50 suncare left in my boots today so I got 641 on the £12 stuff but I also got a till spit for a survey to win £1000, has anyone ever had these before? http://www.bootscare.com

whats the best way to use the vouchers on the new offer on 31st? If you have to spend £15 in one transaction then can you only use 1 £5 voucher?

Any advice, please?

(Loads of burgundy and lipstick bags at Meadowhall this teatime but still both £6.50)

hi guys,
i've tried to tart boots myself as reading this thread gets a wee tad confusing, you guys are sooo clued up on boots! i've got a couple of questions tho.

the botanics body bar, i can't find it in store, what other products is it with?

the suncare thats on 6 for 1 is that as in suntan lotion?

erm, thats enough to tax my brain with for now.
cheers

You can buy any botanics offer to get the free moisturiser, but the cheapest have been body bars, body waffles and clearence section, then it builds up in value.
