Boots Grabbit Bargains Thread part 5 - post your finds here

outbackrockstar

seems to me and OH that these vouchers are much less wanted by non-MSE or wise shoppers in comparison to the £5/£3 vouchers of January. We've found 2 just dropped in store in 2 days, can see us getting a few of these over February...

For all you blokes out there wanting to use your vouchers, here's a couple of ideas, as this thread is geared mainly towards you ladies....

£2.69 - Nivea for men shaving foam, comes in 3 types (normal, sensitove, dry), paying 19p with voucher.

£3 - Botanics shaving stick (BE CAREFUL - THIS IS DUE TO INCREASE IN PRICE TO £3.75 VERY SHORTLY - FIND IT STILL PRICED AT £3 THEY'LL HONOUR IT) use voucher, pay 50p, get 100 points back with magazine voucher, they're paying you 50p effectively!

£3 - Botanics shaving gel, again comes in different types (oily, dry, normal skin) paying 50p using voucher, get 100 points back from magazine.

£4.49 - Loreal Men Xpert 24hr moisturiser, just reduced from £4.99, in 100ml bottles, nice stuff, paying £1.98 for it with voucher (worth it, nice stuff)

Will keep this post updated if I find more interesting stuff for the guys!

Happy bootsing!

Just got my first voucher from Pigsback yesterday! I was really excited (v. sad I know) and I know its not like spending real money, it's even worse, it's spending Boots money! After the last few weeks of lovely stuff for practically nothing, I can't bring myself to buy anything full price, it just seems WRONG! My OH can't believe how tight I've got in Boots.

I know im so stingy - and i dont even spend "real" money its always gift vouchers! need to make sure i have a stock so will be happy clicking on PB!

I bought no7 hair spritz the other day and thought it was three for two offer thing instead it went through as bogof and i got home and realised i had paid 10.50 for three i want to return them but got the wrap with them as free gift will i need to return free gift too i note in the first thread it says that boots wont ask for vouchers back as they are free gift. Does this apply to free gifts themselves? Or is that a stupid question

Phone up Customer Care (number on Post 3) and see what they say. This will give you good ammo if you come across opposition at the till.

Personally, I'd just take one back without your receipt and blag a £5.50 exchange.

I dare say it does apply to free gift too. It was free and you have given it away as a pressie.

Gotta get into this pisback stuff.
So much to do so little time!!!

Can someone clarify the sanctuary 342 for me please? In my stores there are only 342 signs on the bath stuff - not the skincare shelf. Is that correct? Or will the skincare go through as 342 as well?

Also someone asked about the ACM voucher and sachets - I had no problem using mine with the charcoal masks (twice). I hadn't even noticed the 'no miniatures or sachets' exclusion on my vouchers until someone said so here - it didn't say anything about that on the machine.

isn't the 342 offer excluding facial care stuff on sanctuary? (vaguely remembering reading it now)

im so confoozed!

If you pay for things with gift vouchers from pigsback or the gift cards from Boots (I always get them as Christmas pressies!), can you still get points when you use them? Thanks

I'm sure you get points if you pay using a giftcard. I had to buy a giftcard off my stepmother over Christmas as she was given it and said she'd never use it - and I seem to remember that I still got the points.

Hi

Gift cards are regarded as the same as money. You can use any coupons with them and get points back. I know this as I used one before Christmas and was able to use a 10% off voucher, extra points vouchers etc.
