    Been into Boots at Castlepoint, Bournemouth today. They had a lot of their photoframes reduced - £14 to £2! Got very excited and took a few up to the till. Nearly wet my pants when they went through at buy one get one free - £1.00 for a lovely photoframe. Very happy bunny here!

    I don't think they do. In the terms on the back it says not to be used with any other offer.

    That doesn't mean the till won't accept it;) ;);)

    I haven't with this times vouchers but back nearer christmas I did. I bought three make up items on 342 and gave the voucher, the till looked like it did accept it and they took the voucher but on inspecting my reciept £5 hadn't actually been taken off.

    I too have got my batch of vouchers from eBay this morning, when I looked at them I thought they were not quite right. I got one yesterday so compared it to that, the ones from eBay are smaller, they are cut wrong, they are on a lot smoother paper, if you look at then in good light the colous are ever so slightly different. Anyone else got any to compare them too?

    I've just compared mine and they are smaller and the paper is a tiny bit whiter on them than the original ones. I haven't left any feedback yet and I won't until I know whether they're OK or not.:eek:
