Are boots still giving out the £5 perfume voucher with purchases? I thought this stopped on 24 April

They have stopped handing it out but the voucher is still valid if you have one until mid may

Hey everyone!

So what products did you guys buy for the BOGOF meditettanean range? have looked online but I can only see the wonderbalm so i dont know what other products are in store....any ideas?

Anyone use the simple body cream for 200 extra points yet or the botanics spray? i am thinking of leaving them for now until there is an offer or something on.

gosh u know its been 3 weeks since i have been to boots!!!!

My ebay vouchers scanned fine, got 'free' Time Delay cleanser, hand cream, sanctuary wipes.

Disappointed with Parenting voucher, only took off £5. Got Microdermabrasion (£10), powder (£10.50) and concealer (£11.50). £10 off 342 then concealer for £6.50, so £5 off that. Paid £17, expected to pay £11.50 or £6.50 if still taking extra £5 off, like happened last time I used one. Also £5 till spit one wouldn't scan till beeped, SA said it's because already used one voucher.

Do you think tills have been changed or are vouchers differnet only got it yesterday?

Did get 2 cameras though BOGOF still on. Didn't try Med or Simple vouchers.

Ive just back from Boots and used 4 of the '£5 off skincare' vouchers from that man on ebay. They do definitely look dodgy but as long as they are accepted I'm not too bothered.:D

Same happened to me yesterday tbear06!
i got no7 micro dermabrasion £10
no7 highlights powder £9.75
no7 stay perfect lippy £9 and it only took off £5 not the extra others have managed-but i really wanted the 2 makeup items so i didn't really mind & i didn't want a £16 moisturiser just for the sake of getting it free.

I just used 4 of the ebay vouchers and they scanned fine. I was a bit nervous about using them as they do look dodgy.

I think that the parenting voucher doesn't seem to be taking the extra £5 off the second item any more. As I said earlier in the thread I bought three items yesterday 16, 10.50 and 10. Got the 10 one free as it was the 342 and the parenting voucher got me the 16 one free but had to pay 10.50 for the third item. I am still very happy with this though.

I have three proper skin care vouchers left to use. I shall have a good think about what to buy with those. I might go up on saturday and get the oh to look after the kids so I can look rather than being pestered to leave by my 2 year old.

I agree

I got:
instant radiance beauty lotion
total renewal micro-dermabrasion
Hydro quench day sorbet


The 342 took the cheapest off & the parenting voucher took £5 only off
