I have scanned a few coupons in to keep on file on the computer but these have alos been useful if I have to right to CS.I send a scanned picture in with my letter so the CS know what i am talking about. For instance I had a Tesco points problem, sent a letter and scan of the coupons and got 200 points added to my card.

I nearly always write in rather than phone

Today, I got
1st Transaction
2 x Sanctuary Facial Wash @ £5.95 = £11.90
Used 200 point voucher from c.o.t. - sa refused to scan as she saw I also had a £3 off from mag. voucher in my hand:mad: Used £3 off voucher and 100 points from acm so £8.90 and got free bag and £5 voucher.

2nd Transaction
Clarins 2 x lipgloss @ £12 = £24.00
Used 150 point voucher from acm on £20 spend.
600 points for buying 2 Clarins items.
Used 750 points parenting voucher but have now noticed that this hasn't gone on.

Called CS and they were very rude. It appears that my card has been marked as I have previously called re. issues in store (had card for years and have called once to complain about an extremely rude SA) and now anytime I call I am to be passed to a Supervisor. Can't believe it. Anyway, she told me that it is probably because voucher cannot be used in conjunction with another offer and I have to call back tomorrow when they have access to my receipt.

So, only bought make up to get extra points and SA told me it had gone through and marked the voucher and kept it. CS stating I should have sorted it out in store. I thought I had! Anyone any ideas what will happen.

Really sorry to hear that chelle; my little staff is 11 and I know I will be devastated when we lose her.

Back O/T, my Boots transaction was a bit chaotic. Went upstairs and noticed Sanctuary was on 3 for 2, so got Nail oil (£4.95), Hand cream (£3.95) and Hand wash (£3.95). Love them all so thought I would treat myself whilst also getting the Sanctuary gift set free and the new £5 voucher for No7.

Went to ad machine and got a voucher for a free FCUK washbag with £5 purchase of mens FCUK. Great, I thought, good pressie for DS because he likes their stuff. Also got vouchers for 100 points on FCUK sport and 100 points for spending £15.

Went downstairs and got FCUK Sport body spray (£3.50) and a FCUK bodywash off the reduced shelves (£1.75).

So far so good, but could not find FCUK washbag anywhere; asked a kind SA who went out to stockroom and came back with 3 different ones, so we had to try them all on the till to see which one it was. Turned out it was the nicest one so I was happy.

Then went to get a meal deal, and finally went to the till. Worked out it should be about £17. Got the SA who checked the FCUK bag for me so thought it would all go smoothly.........

Total came up as £31 something!!:eek:

Sanctuary 3 for 2 didn't work, so SA disappeared off upstairs to check the sign; came back with it and said it expired yesterday. She said someone would be getting into trouble and said she would put my handcream in for free as it wasn't my mistake. FCUK free bag would not go through, so she thought the till hadn't been updated so she rang that through for free too. She had no idea why the Sanctuary gift wasn't working, but said it should so she then took that off the total. Then neither of the 100 points coupons would work so she said she would add them on afterwards, but pressed the wrong button and voided the whole sale!!!!:rotfl:

So, started again and eventually got everything for £17.14 plus 354 points.
She was really cheerful, but said if I came in again she would hide!

Looks like the tills haven't been set up properly yet so watch out!

To cap it all, I got my £5 voucher and then found another one on the way out!!

Think I will have a day off from Boots tomorrow:rolleyes:

The Boots store in Alloa had a lot of items in the clearance section today.

I got the following items:

Garnier Bodytonic Anti Cellulite Rollerball for £1.25
Garnier Anti Ageing Moisturiser for £1.60
Garnier Summerface Moisturing Cream for £1.16
Garnier Ultralift Reinforced Lifting Program for £1.49
Neotrogena Blackhead Eliminating Toner for £1
Biore Self Heating Mask for £2
Charles Worthington Colour Bright Shampoo for £1

All are full sized.

I also got three 100g bars of diabetic chocolate for my husband for 40p each.

I tried to look up the items on the boots site to see how much I saved. They aren't all on there but the anti ageing moisturiser is on at £6.29, the rollerball stuff at £6.99, the shampoo at £3.99 and the biore mask at £7.99 so it looks like I saved a lot.

I used my £10 voucher from Pigsback and had 70p to pay. I got the £5 No7 voucher too.

I'm really chuffed as my local store doesn't normally have as many good items on clearance.

Quick edit: Reading voucher again it says:
This voucher entitles the holder to £5 off No7 products and Ruby and Millie Colour Cosmetics... as the voucher has a picture of the Hydro Quench day cream on the front I will take that to mean any No7 product and the voucher expires 31st March

Hydro Quench overnight cream sorbet@15.50 - 5.00 N7 voucher + free wrap + 250points voucher from wrap. Might try this tomorrow...I need to spend 5.00 to get a voucher first though:D I'll have to buy the Sanctuary stuff first.

To everyone who got the free Sanctuary bag today. A big thanks for the tips on how to get the bag with a minimum spend. I know there are some reduced Sanctuary bath soaks in my local store, but I won't be able to get there until tomorrow. I hope they have not been sold already. The suspense is killing me. I probably won't sleep tonight. How crazy is that?:rotfl:

remember to check acm for a total spend points coupon too, mine today was 100 for a £15 spend. Also- give all points coupons in first, then no7 voucher last before money. xx

In the new boots mag there is also a 500 points voucher for any 'feel the difference detox 5 day plan.'
Its half price on boots.com

Maybe half price in store?

Milton Keynes has loads of reduced botanics and sanctuary stuff today. I got 2 lots of botanics self tan for £1.85 each (never seen it before).

I was going to get the glycolic peel with my £5 voucher but the no7 lady said it was back up to £16:eek: so got an awakening eye gel for £2.50 after voucher instead.
Lots of mf boxes still!!:j
