    Does anyone know what the micro combat vehicles look like. They are listed under mens gifts. Would they be suitable for an 8 year old?

    Can I return them to a boots store if they are not suitable?

    Why are they showing at £12.50 and when I enter them in my basket they are £17.50, what will I get charged?

    Can I use more than one discount code at a time?


    Sorry its questions, questions, questions!!!!!!!

    Can't answer your first question, I'm afraid but on two of the others:

    yes, you can return things - there is a returns slip in with the delivery

    you can only use one discount code per order with Boots

    There appear to be a lot of items with differing prices.

    I have queried this twice with Boots.

    The first time, they completely ignored what i had asked and simply told me what the current selling price was and the second time they rang to tell me that the "offer i was enquiring about" had finished when I placed my order but had since been reinstated.

    Neither reply answered my original question as to why there were differing prices quoted on indivdual items and, in some cases, a third price when added to a basket (not always cheaper).

    I bought a set of small radio controlled tanks a few weeks back.
    I think these are the micro combat vehicles. Very small "micro even."
    I Put them away for a rainy day.
    Each tank has it's own separate remote control. I also think if you score a direct hit the victim's tank is disabled for a minute.. Providing I read the instructions properly and my memory is still OK! I paid 12.50 in store

    I've already added this to an ongoing thread but I thought it was worth posting here too.
    The HP1215 All in one printer is on Boots.com at £49.99 but it can be brought down to £39.99 with the £10 off discount code + 200 points + cashback if you are registered with a site like Rpoints or Greasypalm.

    The Olympus Mju 300 - 3.2 MP Digital Camera is £169.99 (was 229.99) online and added to the basket its £135.49....no use to me..Use the £10 off £40 in the online vouchers section, get it for £125.49

    The Fuji MP 100 Digital Mobile Phone Printer is online for £59.99 (was £99.99), but when you add it to the basket its only £39.99.......also no use to me, but someone might want a bargain.....also if you add a wee cheap thing to get your order over £40 Use the £10 off £40 in the online vouchers section, you would get it for £30.

    'The Fujifilm Digital Mobile Printer MP-100 is a new concept lifestyle printer, developed to enable users of cameraphones to print and share their pictures anytime, anywhere, quickly and easily.

    Step 1: Take a picture with your compatible infrared cameraphone

    These units are pricey to run check the cost of consumables as the cost per print is high.

    Software for IR on your laptop / PC is usually free and the on line services can be quite cheap.

    This is a good price for this sort of gadget though.

    Thanks OP.
