    has any body tried using the 3 dreamland coupons yet altogether??? Do you think that they would work all together??

    Need to buy for the kids as their room is like an ice book and they are complaing about there bed being cold!!!!!

    Was planning to try next week when i get paid again as i need to so thought i could buy 1 with all the coupons earning £30.00 in points back and then using my points for another one.

    Also not sure if I can ask this on here but has anybody got a spare 2000 points on Oral-B toothbrush coupon that they will not be using as I used mine on a present for my dad and now my husband is saying he would like one of them toothbrushed himself. I can send an SAE??


    I'd be interested to know this myself as I was planning to get my dad one for xmas. Has anyone tried yet? I have a mailing voucher and an ACM one, so might give it a go to use up a few of my boots (pigsback) vouchers.
    If not they are selling them inTJ Hughes for £15 -- (sorry for the non-boots bit, but it's an alternative bargain)

    I wondered this too, but I've got a feeling that one of the vouchers doesn't start until the 21st November, I can't remember which one at the moment though!

    Has anyone seen these in stores? I've not seen any yet and just wondered which section they had put them in as it would probably be similar in most stores.

    Thanks

    I passed through kensington high st this afternoon and noticed boots had a lot of the old MF GWP again - the red and black boxes. I'm assuming they still scan without purchasing any MF products. They are in the same spot as previously - on a shelf above the make-up counters on the back wall.

    They also had the new MF GWP (I doubt these will scan without a purchase because they are not so old, but you never know) I know some peeps have had trouble finding these. They had quite a few, so go get 'em:D I'm not sure of the contents. I was in a rush and didn't have time to take a peek.

    thinkginge, I've not seen the latest mag, but is the GWP you mentioned a grey bag with contents worth 25.00? If so, I tried to get this the other day with the cheapo olay wipes but till beeped:mad: It looks like a really nice GWP, but the definity range is quite expensive and as I have quite a few face creams (mainly botanics;) ) I don't want to spend money on something I don't really need.



    see thats what i wondered, if theres a minimum spend, im not too impressed with olays face creams, so if thats the case i wont be buying, but the loreal derma range is great. anybody got any idea of minimum spends? both gwp not online at the mo. pity, i love online glitches. lol
    my boots and tesco addictions are costing me a fortune

  • My last order from .com (£120 worth of my christmas shopping) has arrived in a truly disgusting state - not packaged properly, heavy items mixed with lighter gift items. The result - a bit of a mess to say the least.

    I did what we bootsers know to do, phoned CS and have been given short shrift - really poor customer service. It was the couriers fault, the warehouses fault, but the upshot was if I want a refund or a replacementI have to repack everything, take it to the PO and send it back. No apology - nothing. :mad:

    In addition, one of the high value items I bought for my sister (see http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/product_details_brand_treatment.jsp?productid=1090591&classificationid=1031586) was in a terrible state - broken box, tatty red shreds of tissue, snapped gift bow etc. Inside is just a load of the old No7 stock, battered boxes, shoved in a thin silver gift box. Really tatty and cheap looking. So much for No7 becoming a premium brand! And even more annoyingly - the day cream was missing.
    When I pointed this out to CS, thinking they would just send the missing cream, and perhaps apologise, I was told not only did they KNOW about it, but many sets had been sent out incorrectly. :eek: They would NOT send out the missing item, instead because its .com only, I had to send it back, then they would process the replacement. A real pain - another trip to the PO, as I can't return it instore as its a .com exclusive!:mad: What a load of waffly excuses, and 30 minutes of my time on the phone. Very not happy - I'm going to follow up with a letter and photographic proof I'm that cross.

    Just beware with these No7 boxes - it looks like a bargain but it looks like an excuse to get rid of the old stock in a naff box.

    I'm really fed up with .com - they've messed up, and I'm out of pocket. :confused:
  • omg, did you get the persons name who you talked to, boots usually send out a courier to collect unwanted orders, if i was you take the pictures and write a letter but also ring customer services again, maybe you'll get someone better to arrange courier pick up but be firm
  • Hi there my gorgeous fellow bootsers:D I just had to post to tell you all that i have just ordered my first £10 boots voucher with Valued Opinions!!(will be stashed for the sale me thinks:D) Does anyone know how long they take to com?
    And also to see if anyone wants to do a swap for the 2000 points toothbrush voucher?I don't have any babys but haircare/pantene or whatever would be appreciated!:) Just give me a shout if anyon is intersted i can't justify spending that much on a toothbrush especially with xmas practically biting my heels!!:o Cheers xx
    Thought for today:-
    There comes a time in your life when you realise who matters, who used to matter and those that never did;)
    :T Now facing my debts instead of hiding from them!:T

    Thanks to everyone on here than has helped me through my darkest days!:D

    Boots are punishing me for being a lapsed Bootser!! :o

    I've been enjoying myself with H&Bs in Tesco, but have been catching up on all your exploits and thought it was time I went to Boots and played. Popped my card in the machine and got:

    1 comp entry
    3 for 2 on mens Kangol products
    100 pts if I buy travel insurance

    That's it :mad: :confused: :eek:

    Everything, the whole shebang, all offers.....3 piddly useless things? What happened to all the little freebie vouchers, 150pts on £10 or £20 spends etc, etc?? I used to get masses.

    Mr Boots has forsaken me....cast me out into the ACM wilderness...SOB.
