    I haven't seen any body buffers or the mini holiday kits in any of the Newcastle stores or Metrocentre, and that's what I'm after! If anyone has spotted them can you let me know where please :o

    Just a quickie .....

    anyway, the transaction went through using my £1 voucher out of the green Change One Thing booklet - but it was only later I realised she hadnt used the 100 points voucher !!!! :doh:

    So my question is, if I take them back, and say about this, (a) will they believe me if I take my receipt to prove when I bought them, and (b) would they allow me to use another voucher out of another magazine, in order to get the 100 points ?? :confused:

    Although the tablets will come in handy, one of the main reasons for me getting them was to get the 100 points .......

    I used to have the same situation like you. But not 100 points, mine was 350 points. Just phoned up to Advantage card customer care 01159181201. Explained the situation and gave my advantage card number to him. The guy there told me that next time when I visit Boots that has the Advantage card machinr, insert my card and will receive my 350 points.

    Does anyone know whether moisturising sugar scrub (£5) work with botanics link saved? It's pretty good to use. If not, I will buy it using my point and get another moisturising cream for free.

    Last december, I had only around 2,000 points. Now I have 4,000 points left on my card with some 2,000 points already spent. Means that I saved 4,000 points within less than a month. Thanks all of your guy.

    i havent gotten a voucher when i bought the suncare stuff and paid less than £5....i think it must just depend on where you are and if the stores feel like giving them out. :confused:

    The till beeps to prompt sa to scan and give voucher.
    on 6 4 1 suncare till thinks you re spending over £5 so you should get voucher.always ask sa for one.

    Julie, I really want to try the 641 on these big bags with my voucher. but im so scared to even try two!! What a woose eh. I feel like a shoplifter in boots as i am in so long, going back and forth along the aisles.
    Dont worry, you will be so surprised when nobody even cares and you arnt going to get arested for using a voucher on the wrong item by mistake:D

    It is much easier to see other people's failings than our own.

    641 is working today, just been and got 2 lots, this was at DerbyWyvern. SA didnt even bat an eyelid there. The SA in Derby must be a rarebreed, they either just put stuff through or ask me if theres any left so they can get some!!:rotfl:

    thry9698, it wasnt Meadowhall or city centre! It was one on a small retail park on the A61 chesterfield road (I think!) next to a next clearance unit. sorry i cant be more specific, I dont know the area well. I am trying to use the store locator on the boots website but it is very slow!

    They had a lot of the body buffer, hair spray protector (sorry, i dont know the exact name) and also the lip shimmer. The shelf was basically full but they didnt have the £5.50 bag/kit or any of the burgandy No7 bags, not that i could see anyway.

    With the botanics they didnt have any of the 99p bath bars but they had the £1.50 waffle body polishers (sorry, i am terrible with remembering names for things!)

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks will try and have a look today, trouble is I'm probably spending more on fuel than I'm saving,lol!!:rotfl:
