I'm a bit P*ssed off I printed off a 100 points voucher on £10 spend and a 75 extra points voucher and selected my items. When I took them to the till the eagle eyed SA said I couldn't use both vouchers. So I explained I had used both before,so she pointed out some wording on the voucher that said I could only use 1 per transaction. I was really annoyed and said that Boots should make up there minds and not let you use it one day and not the next. She dropped her attitude and agreed they should only let you print one at a time.

Has anyone else had this?

I have just discovered something interesting about the free pamper treatment that loads of us didnt get. At the same time as I sent off for my free pamper treatment I sent off for a free hair cut with herbal essences. This morning I recieved my coupon for the haircut and its the same company TLC, So I dont believe they didnt recieve my application for the pamper treatment, I think they had to many sent in so just ignored some.

Hi,
It is not the first time this has come up... amd I'm getting confused. With my card I only get one type of points with £10 purchase and I print several and use them in different transactions. I've never received different points with purchase (75 with £10 and 100 with £10). So can I present more than one copy per transaction of the 75 points for £10 transaction? Or do they have to be different?
Thanks.

Sale in Norwich today

I heard the sales assistant telling someone that they didn't know when others were starting theirs (wed I presumed) but they were starting theirs today :eek:

There was loooooads of stuff - a whole isle worth by the tills in the middle down stairs

My best bargain was the Piz Buin factor 15 All Day Long set with 4 extra mini sachets reduced from £14.99 to £5 then bogof too so £2.50

Anyway here's a couple piccies as a taster

The Wella Shock Waves Wet Look Gel was a £1 and the FCUK mini scrub 50p (had an accident with coffee and had to give them a wipe hence no sticker - don't ask).
The So.... set was £2.
The FCUK silver thing for £2 is a gorgeous retractable blusher brush and the FCUK eyeslashes have got diamonds in them :j

The yellow box is Garnier Contour Firming Gel for £1
The white cans for £1 are FCUK Limited edition body spray YUM!!
The big pink beach bag was £3 and has 12 little bottles of different coloured stuff in it but haven't checked what they are yet.
Not sure how much the Roc Micro-Peeling Kit should have been but I've been fancying a peel thing for a while

Oh can't see the eyeshadow duo or the spot treatment or the 4 pk triple blade razors - they were £1 each too.

Looooads of sun stuff - mainly fake tan, scrubs etc were reduced along the wall as you go in aswell as loads of makeup, some No7 and Benefit stuff, jewellery and little bags.

There were face creams, body creams, shampoos, bath stuff, body cloths. Pink (light) empty FCUK bags £2 - dark pink large body creams £1 - candle in a big glass from £10 to £3 - ooooh can't remember what else right now but I'll edit later if I think of anything.

2 hrs later................

To the tills (one queue) where I got the miserable old cow who spotted the mini TS straight away and pointed out that I needed to get a bigger one rather loudly (I had put the voucher down on the counter to rummage through my bag and she'd read it upside down :rolleyes: ). She then had the audacity to ask if they would all fit in one bag, to which I just had to reply "I don't know - you're the one being paid to pack bags"

Decided to forget about the tooth whitening pen and another couple vouchers and paid with my points instead, worked out at just less than the £43 I'd just had added on for the yoga mat bonanza

They must still be working on the prices as she had to input the sale price manually for the first 8 or so things - the 3 pink books for £2 went through at £3 and so did the eyelashes - so I went back and reclaimed those 200 points to my card - shame they don't do DD

And for some strange reason the blady cameras went right out of my head but will try Kings Lynn tomorrow :rotfl:

You can voucher combine - SA permitting :rolleyes:

So on a £20 total spend you could get away with say a 200 off £20, a 100 off £10 and 75 off £10 - but I haven't found a really happy Boots scanner yet - still learning - I'm a Tesco girl really

If you look at the first post in this thread you'll find a list of what you might have from the machine - maybe the OP has 2 cards - hence 2 different offers

Hi everyone, not been keeping up with the Bootsing lately but I'm planning a trip later this week. I have a 750 points parenting voucher, can I combine one YSL product with one EA? And last week I saw a couple of posts mentioning an "EA gift", what is this all about? :j

Sparkles123

Hi, I got a voucher last week from the ac machine for a free essential aromatherapy set with 2 essential aromatherapy products, however it went through completely free without purchasng any EA products. It is an orange box, with an orange ribbon and contains a tube of body lotion and a 75ml bath essence. Hope this helps...
