    I used my £2 off voucher to buy a bourje... (mascala), but saw the wrong price (thought it was half price). Just checked the receipt when I arrived home. Instead costing me £4.49 (before £2 off) but it was (£7.99 -- so £5.99 after the voucher), which is still expensive for the item that I didn't want to get it at all. Can I return and get refund (even just the money I paid for)? It is still in the original package, plastic wrap and unopened..

    Can anyone help?

    Forgot to say that there are loads of Roc GWP at Bristol Broadmead today (more than 15). However, I tried twice today, couldn't manage to get out with it. First time I tried upstair (which normally my vouchers are scanned fine), but the SA took two items of my roc down stair and checked. Then she said I can't get it with those two, had to buy the expensive item.

    Tried again downstair, near the entrace to the Galleries, SA still said the same thing. I thought they might have been told/trained about this Roc GWP. So they all are aware about this glitch.

    Anyway, will go there again this Tuesday. If I am lucky, will let your guys know.

    Today spent £38.47 for 3 transaction. Got points back arond 900 points (including 500 points of £20 spending on no7). But the main thing is only 2 for 1 of aquafresh toothpaste (£2.09) that I really wanted. So presumably I spent around £35 for using the coupons/vouchers and didn't want to miss the bargain.

    Oh, my third post today.

    Just realised that I bought no7 naturally kissed and handed the extra 300 points voucher. But I haven't got the extra point. Can I call to CS tomorrow and ask to add the point manually?

    Does this gonna effect my buying of 342 of p+p serum online? I don't know why my ebay listings still gain some profit. Today, 2 of my listing ended. £19 (plus £5 postage to Germany) for p+p serum and £7 (plus £2.50 postage to UK) of pre-holiday serum. I saw some p+p serum ended without bid or quite low price (£13-£15). I still have 5 p+p serum on my listing. Don't mind if any ends with £15 as I got it when it was 342 and extra points for my shopping.

    Sorry chatting too much. I can't share anything about my boots bargain to my OH. Now he has already complained me about spending too much money and time at Boots. But I ENJOYYYYYYYYYYYed.

    My MIL bought some P&P yesterday, only found out today, she only paid £8 for it as it's classed as Healthcare (according to woman on No7 counter!) therefore she got it half price, she is over 50 & member of some Health Club in Boots for over 50's.

    Hi Yvonne

    I checked on the Boots website and I can't find the information for the healthclub for over 50s (for my mother who's 50).

    Do you mean the over 60s health club?

    Thanks,

    HH

    Sorry before I start!

    I've not posted on Boots thread for ages but just wanted to draw your attention to some help another poster is looking for. Maybe some people feel they could help?

    I've no idea where she signed upto this but she got the info in the post to hand in store & she's only 52 this year so it's not over 60's.

    Wow, she's very lucky. I bought some two weeks ago, a health club member and over 60, I only got the normal 10% knocked off so got it for £15.07 instead of £16.75. Wish my SA had classed it as Healthcare! I'm happy though as I got the free No.7 GWP.

    Why are you lot buying so much Diareze? Surely there's only so much of that sort of thing you need ;)
    Remember a bargain's only a bargain if you need it!
