    Apologies if this has already been mentioned: :o

    Yesterday while shopping at Boots I noticed they had some coupon sheets by the tills in the photo department. The sheet has some info re Boots digital photo services on one side, while on the other it has the following coupons, under the title 'Introductory offers':

    Save £5 on media cards and pen drives
    Save £5 on any digital camera
    3 free 18x13cm photos
    Free 20x15cm enlargement on the Kodak Instant Photo Kiosk

    All coupons are valid until 30/11/07.

    HTH :)

    Well I've finally had a good boots day,,
    at my local Boots I only ever get rubbish vouchers from the ACM, but today I went a little bit further afield and got lots of fab vouchers from that ACM,
    :j **Won 1000 in the Boots birthday thingy, **:j

    other vouchers included
    (finally) the 500 point memory card voucher-although I couldn't find any cheap cards :mad:
    1000 points on any samsung/fiji camera-looking for 1 for my son for xmas.
    100 points on boots expert range- bought a shampoo for 1.30
    200 points on the new no.7 mascara, but I also had the £5 parent voucher,

    spent around £5-6 and got £12 worth or points, this is my first good saving, so I was really pleased.

    Kind of makes up for yesterday, ordered a £40 baby walker in store, but didn't have any vouchers that I could use for extra points, and I couldn't order it online because I was paying with vouchers, BUT having said that the vouchers were free from pigsback, so I guess it isn't too bad.

    Thanks for listening, lol, I will be quite now ;)

    well done.

    No joy for me, got a Gilette mens shaving foam for 30p, marked £1, then got some of the shoe gel cushions for £1, 2 packs of 8 duracell AAA batteries for £1 each.. they were on 3 for 2, but had no more :( Got some gillette shaving balm for £1 and a no7 cleanser for £1, just paid by points, so back down to £46.69 :(

    Dont they have to sell it at the lower price if it comes up? Im sure they are supposed to honour it??


    any item can be legally removed from sale up to the point that the transaction is complete. i.e.payment for said item(s) has been placed into the till and till closed, or as far as an internet order is concerned i believe it is untill item has been dispatched which is when the payment is supposed to be taken.

    well done sharon69 for standing up to the sa you can quote above if anything like it happens again and know you are in the right.
  • I picked up a voucher by the main tills in boots yesterday for 50p off radox daily elements deodorant 150ml or roll on 150ml. Seeing as the range is on 3 for 2 that's not too bad!!

    Also the over 60 discount at boots works on the shapers meal deal! I also had a coupon for 50p off. My total meal deal (sushi, cloudy lemonade and fruit snack) came to £2.38 which is less than the cost of the sushi lol...
  • Hi

    I wonder is you can help. I have just logged onto boots.com to check my point balance and it says pending points -5300 or something...what does this mean ?

    No sign of the sale left in Swansea now - Sharon 59's supervisor has probably hidden it all!!!

    Pink ACM downstairs actually took my card, but basically only comps, NOT the 1000 points one. Upstairs did get a chance to enter, but no luck. (They say winners are pre-selected, so I was probably banned straightaway!). Better vouchers too, inc an on-line extra points that I wanted.

    Managed to find the Botanics body waffles and got a pack of wipes. Till would not allow free wipes with the Botanics Exfoliating body bar (£2), so it was over ridden. SA put the 2 wipes through and they came up as BOGOF: useful to know if you only want the wipes.

    Cafe is closing down on 6th October, which is a real shame as the staff are fantastic. It will be a doctor's surgery. Wish it was a dentist - we are desperate here now, and too many people have to go without or have one check up a year. Can't even get a private place!

    Only spent £3.50 - Mr B's shares will probably slump now!

  • Hi all, Just back from Boots @ The Fort Edinburgh and they have just brought out sale stuff next to the exit door(this was at 10am). Loads of toys with 90% off. They also had a stand with 90% of some make-up and perfume.

    Elizabeth Arden Christmas Gift.

    I saw the Christmas gift today :j . If you spend £40 (they think its going to be) then you can get the gift for £39.50 and its gorgeous. Red weekend bag with a matching wash bag and cosmetics bag. filo-fax thing too that you put your make-up in. You also get the Make-up and sponges and brushes. It only comes in red but omg its to die for.

    Edited - I have now put some new codes up on the first post for £50, £55 and £60 spends.
