    If you need to use up those aquired points this week, 'red' meal deals are now only £1.99 this week.

    It was Cambridge Retail Park.

    It was the only one there unfortunately, I did go back to double-check once I'd been thru the till!!

    If you can find a Boots with any, it'd be worth buying it ASAP, I wouldn't mind betting the £9.50 discount is a store-wide thing.

    dont think anyone has mentioned hair accessories - I went to the Meadowhall branch yesterday and lots of their accessories were half price

    i picked up a concorde / barrette clip type thingy (silver coloured with blue gems on) that wasnt visibly reduced but came up as half price at the till and also a sparkly bracelet that was displayed as half price (original price £10) and at the till it came up as £2.50, so it may be worth seeing it any you like are reduced - if i hadnt been in a rush I would have picked up a few more to try

    was also pleased as I got to use my £10 electrical voucher - got a hair curler thingy from braun, was priced at £16.99, and got to use my £2 off coupon from cosmpolitan so only paid £4.99 for it

    and picked up a childs sunsuit - priced originally at £13, reduced to £9 and then £6.50 but scanned through at 600 points (£6)

    dont ya just love boots

    Went to the York store today and got a Barefoot doctor set - smellies + sponge + massage wheel thing for £2.50 down from £15.

    Also noticed that crayola stuff was all half price. I got a pack of 3 paintbruses and a 2 pack of safety scissors. There were hand paints and some kits too.

    Unfortunately no Ralph Lauren aftershave.

    Hi Seabiscuit are you sure both vouchers went through ok. I have noticed that over the last week only 1 voucher comes off the bill, regardless of how many are used. The others beep (as if they have gone through) but they dont come off the bill.

    It happened again today. Bought ruby & Millie and other items to spend £15. Put the £2 voucher through and it came off and then the 1/3rd voucher which made a further adjustment but not enough for both vouchers. I notice only when I left. It seems to only work for one voucher with the highest discount.

    Anyone else seen this?

    receipt in front of me states "total saving £12" and all that is on the receipt is the £16.49 item - and ive paid £4.49

    so yeap both the £10 boots electrial voucher and the £2 cosmo voucher worked in one transaction

    not sure why yours didnt work

    do u remember which order they put the vouchers through?

    wonder if they have marked my boots card as putting too many vouchers through in one go?

    they put the £10 boots one first and then the £2 one

    i was making sure they both went through by only getting the one item - ive been had by the tils before - i had a huggies voucher that wouldnt go through but didnt find out til i got home and was very annoyed as i would have used the voucher at another time had i known

    I brought the 3 FCUK pink giftbags at a total price of £0.48 and got 151 points in total using a 150 points when you buy any two items from the FCUK womens range. Was well pleased. Hope they change the vouchers on the machine tomorrow so we can buy more bargains!
