    ..........Am waiting with baited breath to see if Boots cancel my choccy bar/yoga mat offer

    Me too....I paid for delivery for tomorrow but it still says order being processed so I have a feeling it will be cancelled. Hope they let me know as I ordered a few of the cheap 50% toys as well and dont really want to pay for postage just for these. Will not be impressed if the two toys turn up on their own :mad:, either that or just one mat per order :eek:

    (only ordered 3 bars/mats so not loads).

    Mental isn't it? I saw that choccy bar offer this morning and just jumped on it - I'm trying hard to lose some weight so they can be my treats - the mats will be flogged (all bar 1) to add to the holiday fund.

    My points total has jumped from about £5 to ca £200ish in a month and I've flogged unwanted extras on ebay so have effectively got my own goodies for free. I just can't believe it's taken me so long to find this thread - I'm utterly addicted and SOOOOO grateful for the fab people that started it/find the glitches and happily help each other take advantage (pardon the pun).

    By the way, I still have a couple of whitening stick vouchers going if anyone wants one - PM me.

    p.S. For any itunes/mp3 users, I have a link for 25 free tracks and £2 cashback - works fab but not sure if I can post. This isn't the right place but I want to give my fellow Bootsters something back!!!

    :D

    Hi Freebird,

    id be interested in the itunes offer - do you have a referral link or something you could pm me please?

    thanks

    I did a separate thread on the grabbit board - the offer is for 25 free downloads and £2 cashback via greasypalm in their music section.

    I've since been told that you get £4 if you go via Quidco and apparently going direct to emusic.com gets you 50 downloads but no cashback. Someone posted an old link on my other thread too saying a while back they were offering 100 downloads, but I don't know if that works.

    Enjoy!

    I tried to get a mini toni and guy wax thung this mornign in my local boots the sa checked the voucher to within an inch of its life then checked the reciept and my goods to see if i had a full size one before saying i cant use it, so i just said oh sorry i didnt realise does it say it on the voucher? maybe i shouldnt have had it as the top voucher.
    and grr boots onto us was just about to order some ruby and millie stuff, oh well if they are going to be that stupid with the glitches then they deserve it.

    Has anyone had a reply from Boot re the free pamper treatment with gift card. I recieved a letter from Boots this morning saying they were sorry and had spoken to TLC who could find no trace of my application, and apologised. Boots have sent me a 30 pound gift card as an apology. I think I prefer that to a pamper treatment.
    I still haven't heard anything back about my pamper treatment despite being assured by TLC last Friday that they would return my call.:mad: If you get a chance, please can you PM with details of how you complained and who you complained to aliesher? Thanks.
    Time may be a great healer, but it's a lousy beautician.... :/

    I am not long off the phone from TLC, oh my god what a carry on! I had never received my phone call to book the treatment, so I phoned today to be told my application was VOID because I had sent back the voucher with my details of the treatment I wanted. This was an oversight on my part, so I asked why they couldn't just send me it back as it was accidental and they said they didn't do that and I voided my application because of it. After a few choice words and asking to speak to a supervisor they called me back and said they will override it on this occasion. It seems to me they will use any excuse not to give out these free treatments. Anyway I wait with baited breath for my phonecall from the booking team.

    On another note I ordered mouthwash last week, 3 orders with about 20 in each order. 2 of the orders I had the mouthwash part cancelled as they were not available. Eh? They must have been available as they have been in stock since they removed the 200 point glitch.

    I did receive 1 lot of about 20 smile mouthwashes, car booted them on Sunday, 50p a go and they flew out.
  • I keep seeing lots of mentions on here of mail-outs which I don't get - I've had an advantage card for a long time and have never got anything from Boots in the post. How do you get mail-outs?:confused:

    Just collected my pending points from the ACM this morning - I'm saving for a gift experience or something along those lines for my parents for Christmas now, so I should be able to send them to do something really nice now.

    I didn't know you could use ACM points for gift experiences. Is there more information available somewhere?
