Just to confirm that if a No7 item has a free gift with it it still works along with the 2 suncare items. I did this yesterday and got a foundation with a gift box and the gift box had an extra points voucher as well (not a cheap foudation though but reasonable with £5 off with voucher)

Hello
I bought the below online. Just got an email from Boots saying that one of the no7 items-pedicure- wont be sent, its out of stock -Boooo! - so i sent them an email explaining it was a free item, but was worth 4.99, can i have these points on my card, or as a giftcard, or choose something else either online or instore. Theyve said no!

What would you do?

6 for 1 IS still working, just got back from shrewsbury meole brace store, SA was shocked at the 6 for 1, and quizzed it, she was impressed though, and let it through (didn't give me another voucher though, ah well). Frizz-Ease hair serum was only £3.30, so got 2 of those put through seperatly, and I got another bag for mum, and got her to sign up for a card, lol. Also got a No7 compact in clearence for free.

Can a £5 voucher and a £3 voucher be used in the same transaction? SA said it couldn't, but she didn't try, so was curious?

as vouchers are on different products completely, they can be used in same transaction, did she do this to avoid giving you £5.00 voucher I wonder:rolleyes:

If I buy 8 of the No7 gorgeous bags online, it comes to £39 delivered (i.e. £4.88 each). Plus 6.5% Quidco cashback (£2.54 total) and 156 AC points. Each bag contains (effectively) £5.50 in AC points. Am I missing summat here??

Hi, it would be much better to buy them in a store if possible.

Wakefield still have quite a few if any one lives near

I had 8 of the £5 vouchers after the sale last Monday so I bought 6 bags using a voucher each time and it then cost me £1.50 each time also.

I was going to do the 3 4 2 on this but it seemed a bit pointless and would have cost me more in the long run.

They are definitely worth buying though as combined with the 300 point vitamins voucher and the 250 points voucher for N07 products ( which is inside the bag), I gained £21 in advantage points!

Apologies if this has been answered in the past, but what's the return policy at Boots? Do they accept returns without the receipt, and what's the policy on returning products that have been bought with the £3/£5 vouchers?

Be careful as they expire on the 30th or 31st of January. Also you cant be sure the vouchers will still be in them, some people have reported that there have been no vouchers inside some bags.

Luckily they were insisde mine

just been to my local boots - its only a small store - but they had NO botanics body bars, infact no botanics items for less than £3.99 :shocked: Also ALL the sun cream had been taken off the shelves, there was a lady going round with a trolley removing it all, all suncream on sale was Nivea :rolleyes:
I will have to try the larger boots in town tomorrow.

I think it always takes the lowest amount off. So the lowest on bogof is the 5.50 and the lowest again on 342 (as it is a double glitch) is 5.50. Ifyswim

The weird thing is though that it didn't deduct the cheapest ones on the 3 for 2 as the cheapest from my 6 items was £7.50 and £8.50 but I got £7.50 and £11.50 deducted from my 3 for 2's.

From my receipt it looks like the 3rd and 6th item scanned were the ones that got deducted on the 3 for 2 - can anyone else check their receipts to confirm this? If so, that means that if you give the highest value ones as the 3rd and 6th to the SA this should give you the best bargain and potentially even better savings?

Hi
I tried the 3 for 2 glitch yesterday,but it didn't work.
I bought2 suncare face serum and 1 of the gift bags at £6.50 but only the bogof worked.
