    I sent an email to Boots today complaining about the Revlon voucher in the Metro. I picked up the paper on the day the offer was in at 8.30 in the morning and went straight to Boots on my way to work. They had none in stock. I tried 5 more Boots over the next day and neither did they. I have tried every day since.

    I know the vouchers have on them subject to availabilty but they have had no deliveries in a week. Why put an offer out if they want no one to be able to use it!!! Not sure if I'll receive a reply tho!!:mad:


    I was going to "have words" myself, either with Boots and/or Metro advertising dept (doubt they'd be keen on the complaints), but sheer stubborn mindedness made me go in again today when I was sure they'd not be there. Worth a look if you've still got the voucher and there's a boots near? I'm sure it wasn't a delivery that just came in.... only 3 mascaras?? the display has space for 4 rows worth :rotfl: it's prob been shoved in a drawer till they expired but someone put them out a bit early...

    I love this thread - went into Boots today and got 2 packs of 12 diareze tablets and two slimfast smoothies for the grand sum of 58p!! The slim fast smoothies are on BOGOF and half price if you scan in the health club voucher for half price health products. Mind you, if I go back and get too many more smoothies (once I have tasted them!) I might need the diareze before the holiday!

    I don't know if it's just me, but I felt distincly annoyed that the 18 packs of the "poo tablets" were not on BOGOF and I had to make do with 24 for free rather than 36!
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    Y'know, i hadn't even realised the 18 ones weren't... was too chicken to try anything but the 6 packs :rotfl: Anything above that and you had to get them from the pharmacy, and last few times i've been to the pharmacy tills they've been onto my glitches and scams and vouchers *shifty look*

    Hi everyone,
    I've just discovered the meal deal @ Boots (great price for sandwich, drink and healthy snack!!), but I remember there were some loyalty cards a while ago. I asked the SA today but he said they will be coming soon? Are they still around or is the offer over? Thanks.


    I bought a meal deal at Stansted Airport Boots (airside) last weekend and the price of the bottle of water was reduced from 99p to 64p - by the health club voucher I had had scanned recently!

    So my sandwich £2.60, carrot cake £1.00 and water 0.99 - cos me a huge total of £2.95.

    Rock on!

    I thought they were supposed to be - but my Boots said they were not, and were even reluctant to check the 12s for me! I was watching the till, 12s came up multi-save, 18s didn't! I was amazed she let me get away with the 12s for free, she wasn't in the best of moods!!
