I think that the boots.com choice of toys are excellent! im waiting for an order now but not £100 :rotfl: but you seem to have got some great toys though.

The only problem i find is that there are SOOO many toys on there i haven't even seen them all as i never saw any of the ones you bought .

The way you've done quidco sounds right so it should track for you... I downloaded the firefox browser from the quidco help page and only use the quidco and links from there and never had a problem so far.

Yes I got some xmas bargains aswell, Vsmile pocket, Vsmile baby & a bob the builder bike + some infacol (to top the £100 mark) for just over £100 with 2200 points & hopefully £3.50 quidco.

with regards to paying with points for dot.com orders they won't let you but here's how I got round it - I spent my points on alarge un-wanted item in boots branch, then took it back without receipt and hey presto received a gift card because no receipt then ordered stuff in store from dot.com and paid using the gift card. long winded but worth it.

Problem here is that now technically if you don't have a receipt, they're only allowed to offer you an exchange: no giftcard. You might find a SA who'll be very nice and let you have a giftcard, but officially it's an exchange there and then instore.

I've also had to exchange there and then instore too so wouldn't dare try it incase i was then left with something i didnt want but it would be great if it did work.

As i'm sure we all do i think its very unfair that you cant spend your points online when they offer all these items and surely they can keep a check on your points as they could a giftcard etc.

Hi

Hmm, how does this instore collection thing happen at boots please.
I mean, if i seen about 6 things on boots.com that i'd like, but my local store doesn't have them. I just tell them what i want, and they'll get it delivered in for me, and i can pay by cash??.

Sorry i'm a little dim today

they can process it through the till point(the system is a bit slow so be patient with the sa)
you need to have the item code(the 7 number code) found at the end of item description in the catalogue-or take the catalogue in with you and let them find it.
you can pay with cash,card,gv in fact anything except points-also you cant combine instore purchases for 3f2
