Ok, first post as had to join to let everyone know that Boots in Exeter is actually now advertising the suncare offer as buy one get five free. They have a poster upstairs with the suncare stuff and a stand downstairs next to the no 7 counter. They say you cannot use the £5 voucher with it but if anyone is scared of trying the offer elsewhere, they shouldn't be!

also recommend the bionsen all over natural deodorant - theres 100 points (i think) voucher at the back of the january mag, it came out at £2.99 at the till. It really works, is natural and has no aluminium. i had dance workout last night and it worked brilliantly! (its strange, you add water to crystals and spray)

can also recommend this - DD uses it as she has just started using deo and I didn't wnat her putting loads of nasties on her young skin - start as you mean to go on and all that!

Me and my friend just each got 6 for 1 at Glasgow Fort, no more vouchers left there at the main tills, so buy at the pharmacy!!

Also loads of reduced botanics stuff there that works with the free moisturiser

Thanks to OPs of all the offers!

I must be really unlucky
I've just been up to my local store to try the 641, only to find they only had 2 cheap suncare items left, so I grabbed them and some facial wipes, took them to the till and they wouldn't scan at 341....SA said I could either use my voucher for just the 2 suncare items on BOGOF and pay 50p, or use it on just the wipes and pay £1....I wasn't sure if they had stopped the offer so I didn't argue, but thinking about it now I wish I'd said that it worked for me in another store...I'm just glad I didn't try 641
I'm wondering whether I should try another store??!

Firstly, a BIG thank you to the OP for this thread, as without seeing it I would not have gone into Boots at all!
Today I have bought 2x shimmering lip & eye screen for our hols £5.50 each and a pack of the quick thinking 4 in 1 wipes £6. I used my £5 off voucher and so paid just £1 for the lot!!!! £17 worth of beauty products for just £1 - ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC !!!!!!!

After reading a few posts about No7 Sales Assistants, is it true that most are not very forgiving!!! If that is the word as ours seems to be the same - wouldnt dare take the 342 offer and ask her to put it thro!

Staines has loads of John Frieda Frizz Ease stock reduced to under £3. There's loads of the hairspray for 99p. It may be in other stores too. I redeemed 2 vouchers for free products, the SA checked that I could use them with clearance stock, but it was fine and he commented on what a bargain I was getting. I still have 5 vouchers left, but didn't want to get too much in one go. Will be going back again tomorrow (that's every day this week I have been).

I also wanted a refund on the no7 lip shimmer stick I bought yesterday. I messed up try to do a 341 with the burgundy bag, but only picked up one suncare item,so I was charged for it. Anyway, the same SA said a refund was at the discretion of the no7 SA and took me over to her. My heart sank! But as it happens, she was really helpful and nice and offered to let me exchange it for another no7 product. She said she couldn't refund me because it was a cosmetic.


BTW, lots of burgundy bags still there. Did you manage to get one yet joe13? No Botanics body bars in stock.

Just panicking but has anyone tried the 641 today - off to boots at lunch time and was going to try it for the first time!

hi - just back from my first 641 experience!! Is it wrong to feel a total rush when you are at the counter!!! Also managed to get loads of botanics stuff as well!!

For those in Edinburgh - the big princes street branch has loads of botanics body waffle things for £1.50 (upstairs right at the back)
I still haven't seen a body bar - does anyone know where they would be?
