    Looking forward to a week or two away from Boots. I notice some of you mentioning Tesco hauls, what is the deal with these please.

    Check out the H&B Tesco thread (H&B= health&beauty), and the Tesco Quit Kit thread. Both refer to vouchers you can use against a shop... minimum spend applies, but as with Boots BOGOF it counts the pre-discounted value, so if you need a £10 spend, get £5 worth of BOGOFs to activate the vouchers (some are £2.50, some £1.25, some £1).

    Took a while to get my head round it, now i'm set for shower gels till 2010! :rofl:
    :rotfl:
  • Okay peeps, I'm a complete Boots newbie. I've tried following this thread but must admit to getting a bit confused with it all (not hard either for me either :p ).

    So, I've got a voucher which expires tomorrow. A £3 professional haircare voucher (and I do need shampoo) and a £5 colour cosmetics and skincare voucher. Would some kind peeps please recommend how best I go about using these?

    Thanks in advance for any replies :)

    Hi, does she need any vitamins to take with her?

    I only ask as I have about 12 bottles of multivitamins or more and no way can I use all of them!

    Let me know, I would be willing to send them to you free of charge :)

    I'm not sure, I'll ask her for you. Thankyou very much for the kind offer.

    ...depending on where you store it. I don't recommend the airing cupboard, Mark Hill Conditioner doesn't like it ;)
