Boots Grabbit Bargains Thread part 5 - post your finds here

BargainMad_3

Triple whammy means taking advantage of 3 special offers in 1 transaction.

A reduced botanics item + 100 points voucher + FREE moisturiser would be an example (offer now lapsed!)

Another lapsed today was the No 7 peel kit.....

No 7 Peel Kit has 50% off (£8 instead of £16) - WHAM !!
Till Recognises £16 item and allows FREE wrap as "spent" £15 - WHAM !!
Use £5 voucher for reduction down to £3 - WHAM !!

Now of course STRICTLY speaking it should not work - it is a till glitch that allows this sort of thing to happen - you REALLY should spend £15 in cash to get the wrap.....you really should not use the £5 voucher in conjuction with any other offer.....

But it's the stuff of dreams for MSErs.....but I always treat it as a glitch and not a right.....if a SA were to refuse me I would nod my head in agreement !

The best you can get now is a DOUBLE WHAMMY as the £5 vouchers have expired so not nearly as good.

I have just thought - in the transaction you also EARN another £2.50 X 2 voucher if you spend over £5 so it can be a QUADRUPLE WHAMMY !!!

Please feel free to add to this, Im sure Ive missed somethings. Didnt get chance to look for L'oreal, K2, time delay or garnier. Theres nothing from the real shaving co for under £3. Its a shame sanctuary is so dear, I only get it if its on clearance!

Thanks for all these posts

Popped in today and got the peel and a wrap (no No.7 vouchers left though) and a Botanics shaving gel £3 - £2.50 voucher and 100 points

Didn't have a chance to check out the other offers as my 3 year old son wanted to go home by then...

our no7 sa's today were promoting the fact you could use the 5.00 vouchers and claim the free wrap

Oh Im ill !! I was in Boots today with my last two vouchers , sob, and I saw one or two ladies in with their vouchers looking bemused and not sure what to do with them. They were obviousily not msers but just struggling to use their vouchers while buying other stuff. As one lady waved her voucher under my nose I felt like grabbing it :eek: and making a run for the peel & yet another wrap :eek: To avoid temptation I went down another aisle where another lady had a voucher popping out her hand, I felt drawn to it... and was sooo tempted to ask her if she really wanted it ......
Im ashamed, all my good karma work has gone to pot with boots & their £5 vouchers .:mad: Sadily I see little redemption for me as I already have 5 wraps ( minus one for a pal ), 5 sanctuary masks , 2 botanic lip balms & 3 cans shaving cream, only from wednesday. Im now glad to say Im voucher free, for now :rolleyes:

Am going to Boots tomorrow. I have the following vouchers. Any suggestions on how to make the most of it? Also, with other offers that are currently on.

£3 and £5 vouchers - I guess they can go in the bin

100 points on Therapy for Men shower gel

I have already had the 100 points on Botanics voucher from the mag. Not sure whether that was this or last months?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Took some bits I had bought previously back today and got two of the no7 facial sun thingys and a wrap for £2.50. Saw loads of ug hair shine so got 8 of them, hurray only to find I had forgotten boots card so no extra points! gutted.

Anyway walked away in the end with 8 hair shines, 2 reduced lipgloss, 4 facial sun things, 2 wraps, a meal deal and 2 cadburys cream eggs. Princely sum to pay 11p!(because I returned a couple of items) so hurray for boots and thanks all!

SOB !!! :eek:
GECON-
Some stores have reduced Botanics products as the 100 points still works till february. Check out the atm machine as there are some new offers in there , details on front page. If you have a new £2.50 off men & womens skincare you could get the botanics lip balm or mens shaving gel ( hard to find 0 for nothing and get the 100 points too.

so...how do I get a peel and a wrap without spending a fortune, and what are the new vouchers everyones getting?

Cheapest way I can think off to get peel is too buy one at £8 and get the wrap with it free ( as till recongises original price of £16 ), still a great bargain this way. The new vouchers details are on the front page. Basically 2 vouchers off £2.50 off skincare , one for women & one for men. Only selected products like botanics, time delay , sanctuary etc.

hi if you buy the peel for 8.00 and then the wrap will be for free, these are a bargain at half price and you get the extra gift for free as the till still recognises the full price at 16.00 so the gift swipes for free

i think its the cheapest way
