  • Hi - I don't want to cause alarm but I assume that the Boots card is exactly the same as the Tesco clubcard (ie collects all information about purchases made/copies of receipts etc)....someone on the tesco H&B got banned from Tesco as they had 'overused' the coupons.....do you think that alarm bells may be ringing at Boots HO when they see people have received 'free gifts' without buying the item (ie the MF bag etc??) ..... I'm not trying to scare but just want people to be aware that they know everything that we purchase.

    ooohh! sorry to get your hopes up Glitterati

    I thought it was better to let you know this now rather than you making a wasted trip to boots in the hope of getting one.Its better to know on here than have an Sa tell you.

    All companire have the right to withdraw their loyalty cards but I have never known it to happen at Boots- to be honest its their fault they have the glitches not ours. Boots tend to be very good and I have and many others have been getting freebies for years without any problems so I wouldnt think there would be any need to worry. If boots realise theirs an error they just fix it- like the wrap free with the glycolic peel rather than upsetting customers by whipping points or cards off them. So us Boots tarts are save ! :D

    Can anyone help?

    I want to buy a car seat this weekend with the discount off, does anyone know any codes for online purchases of baby items? (like 500 points etc) I know there was one, but I never order online, so threw it away! I don't want to log on yet, as it might mess up the cookies before I go through Quidco.

    Also, the seat is £164, is there any freebies for ordering a certain amount of items?

    TIA.

    AFBB34 for 500 points on a £50 spend and BFBB43 1000 points on a £75 spend
    Still working this morning.

    i found a small clearance section my local branch yesterday evening-picked up a few bargains 20p for a big pack of waxing strips(just because it was the old packaging with the red top wearing lady) so got 4 packs, also found contact lens cleaner for 54p normally £4.99ish,trolls bubble bath for 62p pack of 2 tights 56p and a mahogany photo frame with space for 3 mini and 1 normal photo reduced to £3 which was strange as i saw some exactly the same on another shelf priced at £12 as its new homeware stock.
    Also saw a basket of no7 matt lip palletes and nailpolish/lippies reduced to £2 and trojans condoms were all reduce to 50p(long expiry aswell).
    I also got organic baby food with a long expiry date reduced to 13p so stocked up on those aswell.Going to 3 different branches today as i need to return the ipod i got a few days ago(froze on me)so will fill you all in if i find anymore bargians.
    Love can tame the wildest

    I was in the Millgate Boots in Bury this morning, and was surprised to see that they had dozens and dozens of the MF red boxes left. First time I've seen them round here.

  • wandered into boots Exeter High St... again. I swear my face is known by now.

    Found 3 x Mens vouchers and 1 x Womens voucher.

    Exeter people have far too much money I think.

    Hitting Worcester and Birmingham (various) Boots at weekend, anyone know of any particular good things (MF boxes etc) happeneing in any of these?

    Cheers fellow Bootsers! :D
