Boots Grabbit Bargains Thread part 6 - post your finds here

littlesnuggy

I've got 5 of the new mags (with all vouchers in), and 3 sets of the vouchers from the No7 wraps (£2 off luxury bathing ranges and 250 points on No7 Hydro Quench). I'm probably not going to use any of these, as my store has run out of the free sanctuary bags, and doesn't stock any of the cheaper items in the Sanctuary range anyway.

If anyone wants to swap, then please pm me (No7 vouchers or MF boxes would be lovely!)

Can't return it at all - its "skincare" I tried to return some with the receipt (just wanted the wrap), and they said "No, its skincare, can't return or exchange unless faulty" Also bought a botanics 'body' gift set, and they still said no

Cerenia, phone customer services (number in FAQ on post 3) about this.

They'll tell you that you can return skincare and you'll get the name of the CS staff to use as ammo should there be a problem when you're in Boots.

If you're trying to return skincare obtained during a promotional offer (ie, the No 7 wrap) then that's probably the reason the SA was being ar5ey with you.

Try returning the product - without receipt - after the No 7 wrap promotion has ended.

Likewise with your Botanics set.

if you don't have a receipt, how can they tell that you havn't just picked it up off the shelf and that you had actually bought it before? I don't think I have ever returned anything, anywhere!

littlesnuggy, put it in a carrier bag, tie a knot in it and then put it in another bag, backpack or handbag, etc.

At the till, hand your basket over to the cashier, and when she's putting them thru the till, say "I've got something to return" and then bring your knotted bag of goodies out.

Thereby blindingly obvious you haven't just nicked it!

wow! just found a store local to me with a decent reduced section!omg! havnt really been in that particular one much so didnt realise they had one!!!

found a triple pack of sanctury foot sachets in a box on the shelf next to the skincare stuff - it was reduced to £1 yippee!!! i didnt think reduced sanctury stuff existed near me!! anyway know foot stuff isnt meant to be included in the free bag WYB 2 products promotion but one of the two young boys that work in the store & have been good to me before was on the tills so i thot it was worth a shot.
so had the foot pack @ £1 & sanctury wipes @ £4.95, the £3 voucher off white label stuff wouldnt go through against the wipes even though it should have so he over-rode it for me & scanned the wekend bag - funnily enough it wasnt going to work as one of the things was footcare but he didnt know why that was! so he voided it off & put it in my bag anyway. I love this guy & his colleauge, it was the other nice young guy who showed me where the reduced section was aswell! Total to pay: £2.95 - paid with points :j :j

whats the cheapest any1 has managed to get the free weekend bag for?

Wow, you were lucky, I didnt think you could pay with points if you use vouchers?? I managed to get my goodies for just under a fiver today, I remember someone posting a few days ago about managing to get packs of hand treatment sachets that worked, for not much more than a £1 or so each, I havent seen these in my stores, they probably wouldnt let me have them with the free bag anyway!!

Ooh, you gotta put the hours in if you wanna get the most bargains!

Check out Post 1 and the FAQ on the front page and then just trawl your way thru the last 10/15 pages - you'll soon get the jist.
