    Could you not buy something then take it back in and get the refund credited to your bank account?

    No! Tried that and they insist on points back on card or go and get something else.

    2 x meal deals for myself and DD (no washing up as we still have no water)
    DD got a shaving kit and some chocs for her dad's birthday in the sale
    Went downstairs to get photos developed but can't be done - no water!

    But then saw the toy sale :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    Bagpuss toy with a mousey attached £3.75 down from £15
    Tomy nano egg from ???? down to 25p!
    Crayola crayons 18p (got 4 of those)
    Winnie the pooh torch 15p (think that was a misprice)
    Light up reindeer thing for mobiles 45p

    There was LOADS of other stuff but I can't justify getting anymore (and DD was looking daggers at me)

    Used 100 points WYS £10 printoff voucher and 100 points WYS £15 from ACM (went through at 200 points) :T:T:T:T:T:T

    do you think the items in this so called sale are going to be reduced futher.
    loads and loads left in my store but nothing worth buying at their "sale" price!!

    Couldn't you get it a refund put on a gift card (oh no, i seem to have forgotten my AC?!). You can buy other gift cards / vouchers with gift card but don't think you can by points alone.

    At least you get a few christmas presents out of it...?

    I've been back to boots today, although a different store. This is my 3rd visit in only 1.5 days - :)!!! yep, im addicted.

    i have no idea if im doing well with these deals or im paying more than the xmas sale price but they cheered m up anyway..

    Parenting vouchers:
    2 x Boots disposable camera FREE (SA said they were BOGOF)
    Always ultra, plus FREE liners

    Sale:
    3 x Febreeze sprays @ 75p each.
    Boots fondue set - £2

    I had the R&M voucher to use but i coudnt find any in my store :( .... i also had a money off voucher for the sanctuary mum to be stuff and i spied lots in the sale but didnt dare buy it as i feared the £2 off voucher cant be used in sale - does anyone know different as i'd then pop back?
