    Parenting voucher info needed

    Can anyone tell me is the PC voucher for Half price on Expert maternity and baby skincare range, need to be scanned every time it is used?

    Or does it just register on the card when used the first time and 'remember' the details on the card? I used my dd's voucher for wipes a couple of times, and each time I asked for it back and got funny looks. :mad:

    Hope someone can enlighten me. I asked for it back because it's not mine, just wanted to benefit from the wipes glitch.:cool:

    Happy I ordered 2 sets last night. Just checked my order still being processed provided they aren't cancelled more than happy to send you one.

    That's really lovely! I hope you won't be offended if I don't take you up on your offer, as I prefer to stay fairly anonymous online. The more I think about think about it, the more I think that I don't actually need the set - I'm just suffering from a bad case of toiletry envy. ;)

    Thank you for such a kind gesture. :A

    Some time delay items have been reduced such as face cream now £4.99 :mad:

    It might be for valentines day. Mind you husband would get a wallop if he bought me that to give to me.

    Really chuffed with my Boots shop this afternoon.....I got

    No. 7 P&P Facial Serum - £16.75
    No. 7 Highlights - £10.25
    No. 7 GWP - £0.00
    No 17 Satin Mousse Powder Finish Foundation - £3.00 (should have been £5.99 but when through at £3.00:confused:....so bought another one:rotfl:
    No 17 Satin Mousse Powder Finish Foundation - £3.00
    No 17 GWP - £0.00
    2pks Huggies Nappies - £10.00
    Olay Total Effects Hand Cream - £4.42 (reduced from £4.97)
    2 x Brut Anti-perspirant (for DH) - £4.70
    Pantene Conditioner - £1.79
    Always Ultra - £1.59
    Alldays Fresh Normal - £1.89

    TOTAL SHOP VALUE - £57.39

    Used the following Vouchers:
    £5 wys £20 on No 7/RM PC voucher
    £5 till voucher on No7/RM (from previous £10 spend)
    200 pts on No 7 (from 75% gift set)
    100 pts wys £5 on No 17 mag voucher
    200 pts Max Factor PC voucher
    500pts WYS £10 on baby stuff - PC voucher
    Free Alldays with Always purchase (reduced bill by £1.89)
    £10.25 highlights voucher - current mag

    So total discounts of £22.14 meant a balance to pay of £35.25

    Points added 1919:j

    So in effect I paid £16.06 for that little shopping trip. DH was so embarrassed by all the vouchers but when he saw the total dropping and realised the points on the card he was quite chuffed;)

    And.....I got another £5 voucher....so even better!


    I love Boots:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

    Edit: .....yes I know I could have gone through the till a few times and got more and more No.7 vouchers back but I already have four (from friends and neighbours who can't work it all out!) and just got another one
