Got an email I won a trip to Barcelona, but...

holidaymonster

We really apologise for all the confusion and disappointment regarding the Barcelona competition. As much we’d love to send everyone to Barcelona, it’s really not possible. However, we wanted to let you know what we’re doing to say sorry.

There will be a second draw for anyone who originally took part in the competition, this prize draw will take place on the 19th of November. A further email will be sent with more information.

Additionally, and because we understand how let down you’ll be feeling, we’ll be adding a 1000 Boots Advantage Card points (that’s £10 worth) onto your card so you can treat yourself next time you’re in store. These points will be added automatically onto your card in the next 7-10 working days.

For those of you who don’t have an Advantage Card, you can nominate a friend or partner to receive these points on your behalf. For more information please see the further email we’ll be sending you.

Many thanks

Rebecca

Aww,I received one too, I'm all disappointed now. It's so long since I had a win.

I am happy with that as they did not have to do anything. Mistakes can happen and do all the time.

So there is going to be another email with details for everyone? That sounds good!

If there was 9000 people thats 90k? Or am I being stupid?

Just had a look at their Facebook page, I can't believe some of the posts on there.

I hope whoever sent the emails out still has their job

It's quite gross actually - shows the money-grubbing culture we have. Comping is a bit of fun... and they have righted the wrong. In a way it's even better. Now 2 people will get a holiday and over 9000 get an extra £10 coming up to the xmas period!

Can you not see its a marketing scam.
How many of you will go to Boots and ONLY spend the £10 voucher ?

Open your eyes sheeple.
