hi put my advantage card in the boots machine today and got 50p off toothpaste. their own brand essentials in a blue packet is 59p!! result toothpaste for 9p.

also got £1.99 of any lipstick and the natural collection are £1.99 free lipstick!!!

Is that toothpaste any good?! 59p is a bargain anyway!

You did well to get the lipstick free as mine had a minimum spend of £3 on it!

Was that the usual price for the toothpaste?

I tried to use that coupon last week against Boots Sensitive Toothpaste which is £1 but it did not work.

The SA said it must be because it was already on offer.

Well if it's no good you can always clean your gold jewellery with it ..I always use it on my wedding rings n comes up a treat! Wouldn't try it on cheap jewellery tho!!!

I used to love these little 'glitches' - sadly they removed the machines from my local store

I had the same voucher from the machine and they wouldn't scan against the 59p toothpaste - the SA said there needs to be a minimum spend of £1. I argued that it doesn't say that on the voucher and that I would complain to customer services as I often get vouchers out of the machine which don't work when you get to the till. What's the point of that? Boots gave me it - I didn't make it myself. It's not my fault they don't work. Rang the customer services number and gave up as I was in a queue and didn't have time to wait.


Mind I saved enough on the No7 glitch so that I'm not that bothered about the 50p but it's the principle.

I tried to use with a tube of colgate (red box) and it wouldn't scan - the cashier said it was only for Boots own brand but again the coupon didn't say this!

59p for toothpaste is a bargain as it stands.. must acquire a Boots card!

surfsister

sounds odd if it won't scan for Colgate or boots own! mine scanned straight through the till 3 times in a row!!!

the lippie was £1.99 and the ca put it through manually as it doesn't say minimum spend on it

the toothpaste is fine as boots own brand stuff usually is

fill your boots!! if they let you
