Rubyloo - Go to another Boots cos the £5 vouchers should go through with ANY TD product. It doesn't have the same ingredients as P&P, but is very nice.

Thought I'd share my little coup with you all.......decided to treat myself to Lancome free gift plus 1000 points for buying 3 products......someone kept butting in with questions and the SA got in a right muddle as I was paying for other bits too. She had to add the points on manually too as that didn't work. When I looked at the receipt I thought it didn't look right but OH was getting his stroppy head on so headed off.
Just checked my receipt and found she's only charged me for two items - one £35 cream for free, thank you very much!!!!!!:T :T :T :j :j

Does anyone know when the acm vouchers change? They are the same every time I try it so assume they change them around at set times...

Hi All,

Can someone tell me which Time Delay product has the same ingredience as P & P? Is it the Night Serum £10? I asked one of the staff & they said that they didn't know!. I have tried to use one of my vouchers but everything I try has been refused. I am sure I have read that you can get a tanning moisuriser to go through with the voucher but the SA wouldn't even try for me

Thansk in advance :beer:

Yeah, you've got the right one, it's the wrinkle reducing night serum for £10, it's really really good too! I've been using it morning (yeah I know it's a night one, but P&P tells you to use it both! :rotfl: ) and night and my skins never been so good!

Well done! I love it when they get confused and make mistakes so you get a bargain! :T Shame it doesn't happen more often eh!

The night serum does have the same ingredients as P&P (+ 2 more, one which is perfume), I checked before I bought it, I was stood there with both checking in the middle of the shop!:rotfl:

Just been in to my local - TOTAL rubbish in the sale, nothing reduced much at all.

NOthing under £5 to use voucher on.

The highlight was the NEW PINK ac machine, it looked beautiful. Didnt give me many offers though.

I love the new machines! I prefer the fact that you can still see you card and can get it if the machine goes wrong, especially if you have a lot of points!! :rotfl:

We don't have them in our main store yet but we've got them in the out of town ones! I guess I'm quite lucky though as there are (I think) 6 ACM's in the main store, at the moment only 2 are working though as they're moving everything around!

Went to hammersmith today to see what was left of their sale. Not much there really, but I found a couple of things worth buying. I spent 4.00 in 2 transactions and gained 300 points:j

I bought botanics body polish (got a mini product free with AC voucher) the 1/3 off botanics voucher would not scan. I was in the shop ages while the SA tried to put it through. In the end she just took 1.00 off the total. I also used 100p mag voucher. I used 100points AC voucher on a T&G curl cream (though my hair is as straight as a poker :rotfl: ) reduced to 50p. They had the spa soap (in a dish) reduced to 50p (bought some of these before for £1) and a foot cream reduced to 50p. A botanics face cloth thingy for 50p + 100p with mag voucher:D

Maybe i just don't buy enough then? it's not a new card-i've been using it for years now. I go in fairly often, but i don't have enough money to spend a lot in their to be honest!

Thanks for the replies btw!

I tried the new pink machine today and it did come up with some random offers, but nothing really worthwhile...maybe i'm too picky or something....lol

Don't all shout at me at once, but my first reaction was to go back cos they're really nice in that store.....then OH looked at me like I'd lost it and I snapped out of that one.:D
