    if you have managed to get the oral b toothbrushes x 3 for £7.98 and now want extra heads for them the packs with 4 heads in are normally £15, but at the moment have £5 off each pack and are in the 3 for 2 offer, so at the till they go £15 + £15 + £0.00 and then -£5 -£5 -£5 = £15 and if you have a 10% off voucher ,it then takes £3 off ( thinks you are buying 2x £15) and makes a total of £12 for 12 replacemant heads
    my friend spotted it in our local small branch and we tried it yesterday, we got 6 packs and 3 toothbrushes for just over £33 when we used the 10% off voucher as well.
    the receipt said we had saved over £119.00 !!!

    Thanks for this tip about the heads. I bought 3 toothbrushes 3 packs of the 4 heads and my bill came to £20.99. I may only end up keeping the heads as the kids already have the blue and pink toothbrushes anyway. My 13 year old daughter and 16 year old son don't fancy the idea of using the incredible ones on holiday.

    Does anyone know if I should also get triple points on this "little me" offer as I am awaiting new advantage card and receipt doesn't show points that i am owed as it's a vaildated receipt.

    Anyway thanks for this info, have been dying to try it and had to travel 20 miles to find a boots with the sets rather than just individual little me items, anyway it worked and i ended up paying £12.30 for £42 worth off stuff, bargain!!!

    Have looked in my local boots couldn't find them, where in the store would they be located

    Thanks

    I had real trouble finding them in Sheffield, seabiscuit told me they had them at meadowhall, which were clearly on display. I'd already looked in town and not found them, then yesterday I found them by accident. They were on the bottom shelf, and tucked away in amongst the other baby stuff. I only saw them because i bent down to faff with my magazine/10% voucher. So have a really good look, they're not very obvious.
    OTH :o

    Lots of Little me sets left in Broughton, N Wales (Keepsake Cartons, T-Shirt Sets and Sleephead) all give the extra 500 points when bought in sets of 3. A little confused about the cuddle aroma bear as it is showing on the shelf as not in the sale at £14.99. Not sure what they will scan as though and should be in the 3 for 2. Anyone know if this should work.

    Also Boots are giving a £3 voucher off mens grooming products (includes FCUK and Gillette Mach 3) at the moment when you spend more than £10. I bought a £3.50 FCUK deodrant for 50pence!

    Finally triple points only seems to work when you spend more than £10 net ie after 3 for 2 discount, Sale discount and voucher discounts and are only applied to the net amount. This seems different to some other peoples experience. Can anyone clarify?

    None of the sets are marked as on sale in my boots but all have worked with the discount - the aroma bear and everything else.

    Just been down to Boots to buy little me stuff. In Broughton the Dreamtime Cuddles Aroma Bear is still scans as £14.99! Anyone any ideas as I really like these?

    Also can't find the 10% discount voucher in Boots Health and Beauty Magazine (May/June 05). Is this the correct magazine.

    Any help gratefully received.

    thanks

    Answered my own question on the 10% voucher, found it in the hot holiday buys insert.

    Anyone any ideas on the Aroma Bear?

    the bears do scan at 14.99 but once they have scanned three the three are reduced to half price and then on top of that they take off 14.99 which it the three for two offer, i think if you get them to scan just one then it will be 14.99, hope you understand as its difficult to explain it
    Another day another R&R
