Boots Grabbit Bargains Thread part 5 - post your finds here

Ok I am officailly fed up, gritted my teeth to go into my local Boots after they had been so nasty to me last time having checked that the usual weekday staff were not working. I tried my three cards in one machine and every one of them had only got extra points if you spend £20 (rather than the £10 everyone else has had), no toothpaste 100 points and we desperatley need toothpaste, no essential aromatherapy points and only the voucher there was in all three cards was the sanctuary one. Also no Botanics lip salve or body bars, no pink change one thing booklets, no magazines and no sale items.
Husband in a state of shock that I came out after only 5 minites without the usual 3 bulging bags!
Is anyone else finding their machine empy as well?

PS I did find a £2.50/£2.50 voucher in a basket though which is great if I ever do find anything to spend them on!

My ACM offers had gone today aswel, Really wanted the 75 extra points on £10 spend but had changed to 150 on £20 spend which i wasnt spending.
Not much else on there either:(

Ive only had the 100 points on sanctuary on the ACM nothing else
Got the face masks charged £2.50 each. SA voided them off & put them in manually @ £1 each.
Then found loads & I mean loads of reduced botanics. Got 2 @ 50p each in seperate transactions & used 2 x 100 points from mag.
Also got 2 mini sanctuary reduced to £1.25 each again SA put them in manually
Also got 5x mens nivea not given any vouchers back though.

I'm having to have a break from Boots - What with the 641 and Botanics offer, I have got so much stuff I'm never going to use it all (or even give it away - no one wants anymore!)

Its just so addictive though isn't it?! (I'm already thinking up the best way to use my new £2.50 vouchers!!)

Managed to get the Boots electronic blood pressure monitor for £10 instead of £49.99 today.
Reduced in store to £24.99 and then used the 60% off from the health club voucher = £10 for a £50 product!:j :j :j
May come in useful for checking my blood pressure when I can't get to Boots or I think I've lost my Advantage card again!!!!:rotfl:

Can you use all 4 of the Sanctuary vouchers in one transaction? ie if you spend over 10 can you use-
2.50 off skincare voucher
2.00 off 10 wrap voucher
200 points ACM voucher
200 points Change 1 thing voucher

In theory this would mean you would essentially 'pay' 1.50 for 10 pounds of sanctuary products.

Is this right or have i imagined all of these vouchers???

I tried this the other day, I would only let me have one money off (the one that came with the No7) and one points, not sure which as she had sad that they both had went on and they had not.

I noticed today, in the Southampton centre branch, that all hot water bottles and covers are marked clearance at half price - these included Bagpuss and Winny the poo covers from £15, now £7.50.
There were also a rail of baby clothes by the stairs marked clearance.

I also remember someone posting on here recently asking about camcorders.
Although there are none in the display cabinet, there was one (can't remember make or model) on the counter behind the photo shop.
Maybe someone returned it from buying online, thus it may go on sell reduced!?!

If you join the Boots health club online they send you vouchers in thepost - one of them was 60% off any Boots blood pressure voucher
