    Hi,

    Just got back from Boots and can confirm the following offer:

    100 extra points when you purchase 3 Boots Smile products (ac machine voucher) works with the 59p toothpaste, which is on 3 for 2.

    3 tubes for 18p in effect!

    My store has the liquid totalcare toothpaste (like Theramed) for 24p in the clearance section which also goes through on 3-4-2. So using the 100 point voucher they effectively paid me 52p to take it home. Every little helps! ;)

    I had one £5 voucher left so bought 2x No7 aftersun and the free gift for £2.50. Bargain! :D
    If I hadn't seen such riches, I could live with being poor...

    I got one of the new No7 bags today and it's really nice.

    Inside it also has 2 vouchers:
    1. save £2 on a £10 spend of FCUK, Natural Collection, Ted Baker, Elle Macpherson, Botanics and Naked. Valid 31.01.07 - 31.03.07
    2. 250 points when you buy any product from the No7 Hydra Quench skincare range. Valid 31.01.07 - 25.04.07

    I just wondered if anyone had any ideas of some good combinations for these vouchers?

    Thanks

    Sorry I forgot to say the voucher says save £2 when you spend £10 on any of the great brands in our LUXURY BATHING RANGE, i'm not sure if that restricts things alot!!

    Hi,

    Hope I'm not duplicating what someone else has said but checked the ACM today and there were 2 additional points vouchers for No 7, I *THINK* it was 200 points on the new Spring Range (eyeshadow pallet etc) and 250 points on certain types of the skincare.

    Useful if you still have your £5 voucher to use as I do!

    This is on the first page along with all the offers, or it should be, and it is in previous posts, cos I managed to pick one up last night and post the info, sorry to beat you to it!

    Has anyone had probs getting the free gift with getting the suncream on BOGOF?? Have the sales assistants been funny about it cos you are really only spending £7.50 (minus the £5 voucher) ??


    I didn't have a problem, but I did have a scary moment where I thought I wasn't going to get the free bag! I went to my fav SA on the pharmacy till. She recognises me now and we always have a chat.

    Anyway, I had loads of stuff in my basket (most to be paid for with coupons) and the jewellery wrap right at the bottom. But SA spotted it first, and pulled it out commenting on how lovely it is. It's the first thing she scanned, so of course no price comes up on the till. Then she says, "it must be a free gift...I wonder how much you have to spend? It must be £15" (I am keeping very quiet at this stage). So she puts it to one side, ready to scan later.

    She finds the 2 no7 aftersun creams and puts them through, but then notices they're on BOGOF. "Ooh, are they on offer, that's good. I wonder if this gift will work?" (Please God, just try it, stop looking at everything I am thinking!)

    She scans the bag and it goes through. "Wow, I am impressed!" she says, and carries on with the rest of my shopping. (I've nearly passed out with nerves at this point).

    At the end, I hand over about 6 vouchers. She laughed, but put them all through, but had to do so manually because her scanner's up the creek.

    Result - £15 total reduced to £6.79 with vouchers. And the wrap is so lovely, I am going to go back to her tomorrow and get some more. :)
  • Does anyone know when the bogof on no 7 suncare end ??? :confused:

    Has anybody got one of the £2.50 vouchers yet and used it with a 100 points voucher to get Botanics wipes for free (sort of)

    My thinking is

    Botanics wipes £2.99
    - £2.50 voucher = 49p
    then use 100 points voucher so Boots 'pay' me 51p to take them away?

    Can anyone confirm if this will work - I love the glitches you guys come up with and I also love these wipes!!

    End of march

    Not going to Boots until tomorrow-cannot wait to get the free wrap. I still have 2 No7 vouchers to use! Just hope the boots i'm going to has the wrap. it's quite a big one so i hope so. If anyone does go to the one on the merthyr retial park, could you please let me know if the wraps are there?

    Thanks
  • I went to Cortonwood today and got my lovely N07 wrap.

    I was a bit cheeky as I took 4 of the lip shimmers back as I realised there is no way I will use them all, I wanted to swap them for some of the tanning kits in the plastic bag at £6.00.

    Sa was lovely and scanned them all in for me along with 1 tanning kit, an eyeshadow pallette, vitamins and cold/flu tablets plus the fabulous free N07 wrap.

    Total came to £19 odd and she actually owed me £2 something!

    200 points voucher in the acm for the eyeshadow pallette by the way if you are planning on buying it.

    I also tried the Time Delay facial kit with the £5 off voucher and 1 of the £2.50 skincare vouchers but it ran out yesterday (30th) so wouldn't scan :(

    All in all a profitable day!


    By the way, check your vouchers in the burgundy bag as I am sure mine expired today ( can't check as I have used them all)
    Stopped smoking Jan 2007 after 23 years!
    Cigarettes NOT smoked = 240,945
    Smoke free days = 11 Years :T
    Cash saved so far = £125,45,11

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Combo Breaker
    Same question please as someone higher up the thread has asked - when does the BOGOF end on suncare ? (not sure am brave enough to go in today) Presume its somewhere with No 7 stuff and not in general run of suncare? Its just I havent seen it in Chelmsford Boots. I gather from another post that the wraps are just there for you to pick up and take to the till? Or in some stores have you got to run the gauntlet of the no 7 ladies??
