    I had a great time in Oxford city centre Boots today. The main sale is rubbish (as celyn20 said the other day) but there are lots of things that are reduced dotted around the store on the usual shelves. I am so excited you can have a picture of my haul. :D

    First transaction:
    ● 3x Kangol men's body spray, on clearance for 75p each. Used 342 voucher from ACM so £1.50 for 3!
    ● 1x Dove handwash - on special offer for 83p, used 50p pigsback voucher so 33p - although SA scanned it twice by accident so -17p!!
    ● Nivea for Men gift pack - on clearance for £2.50, but went through at £1.66. Think this is because NFM is on save 1/3 at the moment?
    ● Botanics men's face scrub, 1/3 off so £2.99, used 100pts voucher from mag
    ● Boots vitamin E face wipes 99p +free cleansing lotion with ACM voucher
    ● FCUK mini sugar scrub £2.25 + 150pts from ACM. This didn't go through automatically, but as the ACM voucher DIDN'T say "excludes minis" as they usually do, SA added it manually for me.
    ● used 75pts wys £10 as well (only added once now though. :( )

    So total spend £9.22, earned 353 points & a skincare voucher, plus lots of bargains. :D

    Second transaction:
    ● Natural collection brush set £3
    ● 2x Natural collection Lotus Blossum manicure sets, on clearance for £1.35
    ● GWP free!

    So in total spent £5.70 and got another skincare voucher & 20pts back.

    Also got a back to school pack free (they're upstairs by the new pharmacy), and found an Olay total effects mask + £3 voucher which someone had kindly left on the shelf! So all in all a good day. :)

    I left lots of the clearance stuff there for everyone else :A. Also there's loads of reduced No7 stuff where the pharmacy used to be downstairs, if you want to use it to get the GWP. They had some liplicious gift sets reduced to £7.50 which you could probably use the mag £1 off voucher to get for £6.50.

    HTHS. Sorry it's so long but I was enjoying myself.:p Here's the pic:

    I might be getting up to York next week, is there anything left in the sales up there or has it all been scooped up? Apart from the two in town and the one at Clifton Moor where then is the next nearest - avoiding Leeds, too big for me to cope with. We use the trains a lot when we are up there so closesness to a train station is also useful!

    I have printed off my free mascara voucher in the hope of getting one- is that a lost cause?

    Hi,
    there are three in York (main one, one in coppergate and the other corner of goodramgate) but I'm afraid none of them have anything too interesting. There's loads of No7 lipsticks reduced to £5 but not much else going on.
    Clifton moor (i think) is only an opticians but if you go to Monks Cross, where they have clinique etc, there's a looong shelf of clearance stuff at the back. Last time i went it was full of self tan things i think.

    sorry to disappoint.

    Just a quicky to say I tried for the Sanctuary GWP today in Blackpool, my clearance item was £2.49, total Sanctuary spend with GWP £12.49 and after scanning the GWP, it didn't come up as a freebie....maybe the glitch has been fixed or have i got it wrong?

    Did get 2 very nice photo frames - bogof and 100 extra points + extra 75 points for over £10, and 2 £5 vouchers as 2 transactions and a pasta machine for £6 - Christmas present for DF!

    Does anybody know if you can only use 1 voucher at a time?

  • Hi All,

    Can you get mobile top up in Boots, without an electronic top up card?

    Thanks in advance
