    If the till spit is on - make sure you do multiple scans to get maximum amount of vouchers (ie. lots of £5 transactions) i complained that the SA wouldnt do this last year and CS said they should have done what I'd asked them, even if there was a massive queue, so don't let any SA fool you!

    could someone please tell me what this means, i dont usually shop in boots but will be there for the sale in the morning, i remember last year i put all my shopping through in £10 shops (much to the sa's discust) as there was a £5 no 7 voucher with every £10 spend and i use the facial wipes, is this something similar as i didnt notice any signs instore this morning, thx for any help
  • me too, my 2yr old will have more chocolate and treats tomorrow morning than he will for the rest of the year, anything to get him to sit quietly in his buggy and let me shop!


    :rotfl: Mine too. Great minds think alike

    Its a £5 skincare voucher with a £5 spend this year
  • Was in Boots in East Kilbride near Glasgow and asked sales assistant when 75 percent sale was starting and she whispered 'tommorow'.

    She was a very helpful sales assistant, the first transaction i bought baby item for 5 pounds and got planned 5 pound off skincare, then i bought regenerist facial wash for 7.50 using 5 pounds voucher and 300 points ACM voucher and added a few necessary purchases and obviously got another 5 pound voucher as over 5 pound spend.

    She told me that i only had to spend 5 pounds to get this 5 pound voucher which i thought was really helpful and she congratulated me on the 300 points and sniggered . I think this will be the store to visit tommorow, the sale is on and i hope she's on the till !

    I think i've done quite well but not half as experienced as you all on here !

    Thanks for all the info, getting a bit addicted !

    Did the 500points parenting coupon scan or did SA have to put it through manually? just wondering 'cos the AC voucher for 300points didn't scan for me last week when I bought an olay product. SA said it was 'cos I was using a 5.00 skincare voucher in the same transaction:confused:

    I can't get in to my local Boots 'til about 3.30ish tomorrow, I hope there's still stuff left, what are my chances?


    I went last year to 2 different Boots 3 days after 75% kicked in and there was still stock.

    Does this mean that the Highlighter is limited to 1 per person due to the fact the AC will lot allow you to use more them one, even on seperate occasions????

    Has anyone bought more than 1 but on seperate visits???

    Yes - but I did not use my AC as I was only buying 50p wipes so no loss on points and Boots don't know how many I have/intend to get!!
