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

    How is it stealing? if the till only charges you for one item and gives you five free, that is not stealing. They are trying to shift this stuff off the shelves to make room for new stock - that's what I think anyway. Just like the Botanics offer. They probably have so much stock they don't know what to do with it. That's why they are giving it away:D

    Just go for it - today, before it's too late:D

You are wicked!!
    Now, down to business..my daughter lost my advantage card last week..(I haven't QUITE disowned her .lol...anyway, I have cancelled the card and ordered a new one, but what I wanted to know, was, even though I can get my receipts validated, can I still use different vouchers for money off/AC points etc..?
    Can anyone help me? :confused:

    yes you can it shows on the reciept when you get the card you can have the points added on-any problesm ring the numbe on the back of the card and custmer services will sort you out-they are really good

    What people do not realise is that "behind the scenes" Boots staff have team meetings where they discuss matters that get them down and these are fed back to head office. Now if a lot of staff "feedback" that the vouchers are causing them hassle with the customers, Boots will do something about it rather than have their staff - OR CUSTOMERS - constantly unhappy. It will usually mean less offers or more RESTRICTIVE offers.

    Lets face it the extra points for No 7 coupons should not be used at the same time as 3 - for - 2 and certainly not 6 - for - 1 ! The £5 off vouchers should not REALLY be used in conjunction with any other discount nor should they be used against the £6.50 bags as they are a clearance "gift" item. The extra points with Vitamins should not REALLY be used in conjunction with a £1 discount or a 3 for 2. Sure glitches are allowing ALL these to happen but that is what they are - GLITCHES !!! If people start kicking up a fuss DEMANDING it as their right, well Boots staff will feedback discontent from customers AND staff and they may knock these offers on the head or have less of them.

    It will be the same in Customer services - staff feeding back that they have had lots of people complaning that staff have not handed out vouchers to them. The powers that be in Boots may then decide - well we will do LESS vouchers then.

    It is always best to keep your head down, do not make a fuss, treat any glitches as a BONUS rather than a right and count what you HAVE GOT rather than WHAT YOU COULD HAVE GOT.

    I totally agree with everything you said in your post! A couple of times I have missed out on the 5.00/3.00 vouchers because there were none left in the till, but I didn't make a fuss about it. I know they are subject to availabilty. However, I have been lucky and found at least 5 vouchers that people have thrown away. I found 1 on the underground - of all places:D
  • Morning all! Well, I also got the 6 for 1 3 times yesterday, very pleased that is a couple of birthday hampers sorted for me! Just wanted to ask a quick question, I remember someone saying that there is £1 off vitamins voucher in one of the small booklets. I thought it was the orange one but its not in there. Does anyone know please?
    Thanks

    you are right.I was moaning about not recieving some points on vitamins until my mum pointed out that it wasn't the end of the world after all the offers I have taken advantage of recently(641,bogof,vitamin vouchers no points).I felt abit ashamed so i didn't bother ringing customer services.
