Hi, I got 2 miniature sanctuary cleansing facial washes priced at £2.50 each
with a £5 skincare voucher today, no probs at the till even tho the SA thought it wouldn't work.
This should work on the toner as well. They're 50ml each.

Hi - anyone know if there is anything left/restocked in either Nottingham city centre stores?
Thanks

Can everyone tell me if this is correct or just one of those over excited sales assistants who seem to think the money that people save comes directly out of their pocket: I went to buy a regenerist olay cream wash £7.50, gave her the £5 off voucher and the 300 (I think) points voucher for regenerist. She asked me why I was trying to get £8 off of a £7.50 product, I just said that the two vouchers were valid, neither said they couldn't be used together. She then refused to put it through and even try both of them, which I thought was quite mean. It says on the first page of this post they should work.

I've just come back from Vic Centre, there's hardly anything in there in the sales area. There was only one damaged Ted Baker, some little books on wine and a few cheap toy type things, nothing worth having. Didn't go to B/Marsh though, but they didn't have very much last time I went there anyway, so unless they have restocked I wouldn't have thought it worth the parking.

I visited one of the stores that I visited since I raided it on Tuesday.

Rows and rows of empty shelves.

I wish I would have taken a picture of it.

Does anyone know if there is a money off / points voucher inside the No 7 Lip and Body Shimmer Gift Set? Its 4 little pots with a diamond on each lid. Was £12 (£3 in sale). Its on page 52 of the xmas catalogue if anyone still has it.
Going to use it as a teachers gift and dont want her to find a voucher dated Jan in June !!
Would save me trying to get into it and maybe wrecking packaging if anyone knows, Thanks in advance:o

Sorry to hear abt the mean SA.
from what i can remember, there have been some mixed report on this. personally i have found that it depends on the SA/supervisor to manually add the points. certainly no problem with using the skincare voucher. HTH

I have had them work twice, first time, the till beeped, SA went to ask someone and was told to put them both through. Second time, I had a reduced eye shadow palette and highlighter that beeped, SA was told that all vouchers were playing up so to override it, whilst she had got her key in to overide that, I put the Regenerist 300 point (on a £6.50 face wash), a NO7 200 point from a gift set and a £5 off skincare voucher through. Haven't tried it since as the ACM won't give me anymore!!
I also had the voucher turned down the first time I tried it though, and I rang customer services, and said I thought it should have worked, the nice man agreed with me and put the points on for me.

in birmingham city centre branch today, other half spotted some duracell batteries on clearance for £2.50. it says special pack 12 + 6. he had picked up the aa ones and i remembered i needed some aaa ones too. i then realized duracell was on 3 for 2 so picked up an extra pack. and they went through at the tills on 3 for 2! :T



well chuffed and i think my husband was impressed but i still am on the verge of being banned from boots, due to the skincare vouchers! every time i manage to exchange 1, i ended up with another. so we keep going round in circles, lol

I got these, you can carefully open the packaging to have a look. I couldn't see a voucher unless there was one hiding in between the insert but I think this is unlikely.
