    I had a 1/2 off boots children's medicine coupon so I got some of the Boots version of calpol paracetamol at £1.99 yesterday. The till wouldn't accept it so after calling over another SA to try and then a supervisor they eventually took it over to the pharmacy desk and then back again and eventually manually over rode it. It was a bit of a farce and I was so glad that I had just a couple of normal purchases and didn't have a load of suspicious looking coupons in this shop! When she gave me my receipt it actually when through free, she ended up ringing it through seperatley and the receipt showed £0.00. After thinking about this once I got home the only thing I can think of is that I am a member of the healthcare club where you automatically get 50% off certain products, so I'm guessing that I already got 50% through the club and then 50% off the original price from the coupon?

    Hi
    Where did you get the 50% off childrens medicine coupon from?
    Thanks

    Mines came through a mailing a couple of moths ago. It had 50% off several kinds of medice and a meal deal voucher too. They were blue the vouchers.

    Think it was a health club mailing.
