Some people have mentioned getting new £5 vouchers when getting lots of things free. Do you have to spend enough to pay £10 in cash to get the voucher, or does the voucher come when the items you get would have been more than £10 before all the bogofs and half price vouchers etc?
You usually have to spend 10.00 cash to receive a skincare voucher. But the till thinks the 5.00 Roc voucher is cash, because I spent less than 5.00 in my first transaction today - 10.00 if you include Roc voucher and received a 5.00 skincare voucher. However, in the second transaction I spent less than 10.00 including Roc voucher so wasn't given a new voucher. I hope this makes sense - I'm tired, time for bed.0 -

Think I have sorted the toothpaste one out.
There must be a new health club one cause my sheets do not have any toothpaste ones on.
I have two sheets both expire 31/05 and are slightly different in terms of the offers.0 -
I have a 50% off boots hayfever tablets which are on bogof(on the web site anyway) so I assume this would work in the same way as the poo ones????
FREE????????0 -
How would a 60% off kids vits work on a 342?? Would it take 60% off each then a free one??
Not that we need them - or poo/sneeze things either.

How would a 60% off kids vits work on a 342?? Would it take 60% off each then a free one??
When I got a till check earlier this year on 60% off vitamins and 342 it was going to to reduce 1 pack by 60% then as that was the cheapest item it took that off,So was still paying full price for other 2.I had 2 vouchers the same so it was cheaper to buy 2 single packs in seperate transactions..Mine said could only be used against 1 product and not in conjunction with any other offer (342).
However that was in the feb/march offers.May be different this time.0 -

Alot of the Boots Expert range is half price and the dental is on 3 for 2 but when it takes the offer off it takes the full price off! For example, dental flossers, half price at 99p, bought 3 = £2.97, offer takes off £1.99 so 3 packs of dental flossers for 98p!! Works on all expert dental products! I bought three whitening kits for £14 and they're meant to be £28 each!!
Good Boots day
HI! Apologies if anyone else has stated this (had a look back through the thread but couldn't see it!) regarding the above Boots Expert 'glitch'.
I bought 3 x Whitening Kits @ £14 each (half price, orig, £28) and also 342.
I was expecting to pay £14 in total, as when the 342 kicks in, I was expecting it to take off £28 as mentioned above.
However.... checked my receipt upon leaving the store (!)
Boots Expert Whitening Kit £28.00
Boots Expert Whitening Kit £28.00
Boots Expert Whitening Kit £0.00
Boots Expert Whitening Kit offer -£28.00
Total to Pay .......£28!
So, charged full price on all 3, but given 3rd one for 0.00 to compensate the Half Price Deal, and then Deducted £28 for the 342.
The Glitch must've been fixed!!!
Returned them today, with Receipt, and said I couldn't use them 'cos I have Crowns and didn't realise. (I just didn't want to spend £28, (still a bargain I know) but £14 would've been a mega bargain!)
Refunded without a problem, but asked for my AC to deduct points! Fair enough! Then.......Refunded £56....(2x £28)...Full Price 342!!!???
I wasn't trying to 'pull a fast one', even handed over my receipt, but Hey Ho!
Sorry for excessively long post, but just wanted to 'warn' / advise anyone trying this Glitch!!!makinprogress0 -
Hey all, pretty new to this but have picked it up well i think lol Had a boots day on wed past and ended up with the following:-
Diarrheze (12 pk) x 2 (used the mag voucher and on offer BOGOF-tried to get an extra 100pts using the ACM voucher but didn't scan through for some reason) Cost £4.** per pack but after vouchers/offer i got both packs for free and actually credit 1p!
No 17 nail polish (used the ACM voucher for £1 off) Cost £2.49, after voucher £1.49
No 17 bronzing balls, cost £4.49
A and A gift bag containing nail polish, eyeshadow, emery board and £1 off No17 nail polish free (as had spent over £5 on No17 goods) Didnt see a 342 offer on the no17, does anyone know if the offer is on in Aberdeen store?
Boots basic mouthwash x3, 342 and used ACM machine for 100 points on any mouthwash which totalled 300 points, paid £1.44 total (couldnt see the extra 100 pts when you buy 2 mouthwashes that people have mentioned-where abouts is it found?)
There was a demostration for Origin product launch so lovely assistant in shop was showing me all the new products that came in, they all smell fabulous. Offer on for 750 pts when you buy any 2 products from the range. I bought two packets of mints at £3.50 each but points didn't add on, till assistant at pharmacy said she thought it was maybe because it was the new launch day and the tills weren't updated, but to ask downstairs. However, queue downstairs was massive and was in a rush, does anyone know if they can add points on at a later date? Would they need to refund the mints and put them thro again?or how does it work?
Tried to spend my skincare voucher on sant foaming shower wash but didn't scan thro so SA put it back.
All in all my spend came to £14.XX, got 360 points (+750 pts due)=1100pts
Plus £5 till spit voucher for skincare. Brilliant!
Does anyone know if for example you can spend points in a transaction and receive points back, i.e on the origins products if you buy two products and use points can you still gt the offer 750 pts?
Also what is the offer for the ROC bag? Does it scan as free with a certain other product or is that with the £5 ROC voucher? Is the ROC voucher the skincare voucher?
Loving all this Bootsing, think i have found a new hobby

Does anyone has spare voucher for skincare please? :rolleyes: My local is out of stock
And maybe someone has some Huggies points vouchers from parenting mailing, that won't use? Happy to send SAE
In return I can offer free photos vouchers, 1/2 sunglasses vouchers or some privilege vouchers at Holmes place club: few FREE sun bed vouchers, few FREE guest pass vouchers or 30 min reflex personal training session voucher. Other Boots parenting vouchers (Simple baby, Sma, Heinz, Pampers etc etc) vouchers available, just ask0
