Anyone know if the sale stuff goes to 90% off tom or if that is just a viscious rumour? If it does i will send my mum.

Botanics Body Bars are hidden away over near the photo counter, find the machine to develop your own photos then look on the shelves across from it. There were 3 left on the shelf after I had one late on Friday afternoon.



I find the younger ones in that Boots branch are more friendly, the older ones do seem to be dragons protecting the store from us and the No.7 woman just plain scares me!

Heck, I saw 2 Green wrappered ones today but didn't think they worked with the offer, are they the ones you got ??, could kick myself now.

Had no success with the 3 for 1 again today picked up 2 NO7 Aftersuns at £8.50 each and 1 Lipstick bag and the BOGOF on the Aftersun worked but not the 3 for 2 with the gift bag, Gutted not got a deal yet and no vouchers left, never got one at a store yesterday as she said there were none left, will keep trying.

everyone who is scared of the no 7 assistants just remember they are only shop staff & nothing special (no offence to any shop staff - i was one myself once) it is not coming out of their pockets and they have no right to get stroppy or draw you looks. january is usually a terrible month in retail for sales. no wonder head office and most store managers are happy as their sales will be going mad & the more they take, the more they can spend on staffing etc

forgot to say as the glitch is on their own stuff ie no7 it might not be such a mistake on boots part as they decide what the mark-up is on each product. might just be clever marketing

I really want to do the 6 for 1 but feel nervous about it as if its stealing, any advice ??

Hi, you say that you managed to get the Time Delay kit today but it wasn't the one advertised on the voucher, please can you confirm which kit you bought as i'd like to give it a try

I managed to find a Time Delay Pamper Kit reduced to £4.96, so free with voucher from change one thing booklet.

I don't see why not! I split mine all up today, so all I can tell you for sure is that you can use the 250pt and £5 no7 vouchers together with the 641/342 and you can use the £1 off change one thing voucher and the 300pts voucher together for vitamins.

Yes, I have used all of these vouchers in one transaction and also the 100 point Botanics voucher from the back of the magazine and the 100 point cold and flu voucher from the same.

As a bloke who goes into boots now and then, it isnt the SA's that scare me as they look down their noses at me as i wander round aimlessly looking at the offers as my OH shops. Oh no, it's you lot of mad, salivating women hunting roound like hawks, pecking at the No 7 items, watching each other pick up items and mentally working out how much all 5 baskets of products will come to factoring in 241 and 342, extra points, £5 off voucher, venus rising in capricorn.... You lot scare me!! lol aND Im not convinced as to how much you lot actually save... but hey, who cares, ive never seen so much happiness on one thread. Keep up the good work all.

ps. those in the boots baby club... you get a nice pressie on baby's 1st birthday of shedloads of vouchers like lifetime triple points on huggies double points on boots brand baby products (no transaction limit) amongst other little midget gems.
