Does anyone know what Boots' return policy is on skincare/face cream items please? I have got 3 Botanics moisturising products that dont like my skin at all (they stung my face when I tried them!!) so want to return them....but have no receipt.

Any advice appreciated. Thanks

Mee Too! Dont suppose it was Botanics Pore perfection clay face mask. Ouch it really hurt!

Just had a fantastic Bootsing trip!
Did loads of transactions so won't bore you with the details, but got
4 No7 after-suns
2 No7 wraps
4 Low carb choccie bars
Muffin
2 SS products
SS W/E bag
2 Benefit sharpeners
No7 Secret Smoother

Total value £142.90 :eek:
Total cash spend: £21.90
Points added: £10.19 (inc £3 from CS... see below)

...and I'm still left with a £5 No7 voucher!

My sanc w/e bag didn't have a voucher in but rang CS... bloke didn't know whether it should have had a voucher in but was happy to add 300 pts to my AC as goodwill gesture!

As for the Sanctuary offer, its complicated to say the least!
Had £2 off £10 voucher from wrap, £3 off from mag and 150 pts from AC... the till wouldn't take any off!!!
I had bought SS facial wipes, SS salt scrub bar + free SS w/e bag.
They called manager 6 times before she came... after me whinging a LOT(!) she used another till and £2 + 150 pts worked and then she manually used the £3 off for me as well (I think she wanted rid of me by then, lol)
Don't think I'll try that again!

I'm loving the bootsing thing!!! :T

i have a few of the 24.50 suncare bags, i was thinking of taking back - never been opened would i have to take back 2 items as suncare is bogof or take two and see if they will just take the one to start with??

this bag has firm your body balm, firm your body sun lotion spf 15 and firm your body tan maintainer all 200ml

no just take one back without the receipt and if they sak say you only got one a a gift then you can get stuff to the amount of £24.50 to exchange.

Then go upstairs and do the same with the other one!

Thats very unuasual, as the ACM vouchers tend to be able to be used altogether, its when its mixed and matched with giftset vouchers, mag vouchers and vouchers sent thru post that can make it confusing.

May be worth just giving customer service a ring and enquiring?? Ive always found them very helpful on the odd time I have rang them.

Thanks for your help, might do that later.:T

what are the suncare items that are on bogof so i can get a wrap and use £5 voucher and total will only be 2.50.
