In that case....I would try calling CS and see what they say. I wouldn't worry about the number of MOC and points vouchers put through....that's what they are there for after all.

I'd probably mail CS, because like you hesjane, I don't see these as 'glitches'

With hindsight, you might have been better doing two transactions **Patty** and keeping the 300 points for another day? Problem is, I can't work out the best combination lol.

What is it that they say? No publicity is bad publicity??

I am now intrigued and having checked out the pros(?)will probably buy the moisturiser!!

Post it as a grabbit and I am sold!!

jeppy

Checked it again! I dont have wrinkled lips but I am sold on the fuller lips!!!!

I wouldnt of known about this product if it wasnt for the mispelling! (and how do you spell misspell?)

Mistake or clever advertising!!!

Couple of highlights from my last few boots trips.

Shop 1

Got reduced sanctuary salt scrub, normally £9.50 red to £4.45 and used £3 sanctuary voucher from little luxuries set - so paid £1.45 for it:j did bleep, but was over-ridden.

Same shop got no7 Awaken eye gel free as was half price - £4 and used £5 pink voucher.

Also bought Q10 cleansing milk for £4.99 and got the 400 points for nivea Q10 - therefore .99p (I do actually use this anyway)


Shop 2

Tried to get

Sanctuary bright eye gel £7.95
Sanctuary cleansing wipes £3.95
free gwp for over £10 spend sanctuaries little luxuries
then once it totalled "suddenly found" £3 off voucher, but it didn't work. It charged me for the sanctuaries little luxuries and took the £3 off the cleansing wipes:( , so then pointed out that if I'd paid £10 for one set I could get another one free - wasn't quite what I was after, but hey you win some, you lose some!!!


Shop 3

Went to a new boots I'd never been to before and found some reduced R&M mini brush sets and eye compacts for £5 which was brill, as my 2 local stores don't stock R&M. Also got some p&p holiday stuff along with highlights to get yet another gwp, and pretended not to hear the no7 SA shout after me "you can pay here" as I walked past the stand for the fifth time and made my way to the general tills, knowing I was going to try to use at least 3 sets of vouchers and having been warned by twig 1 previously about this particular SA (bet you know where I mean eh twig) and they all went through like a dream.

Popped to woolies to get my free pack of cadburys mini eggs:easter_ba

and thanked the lord for MSE:T

£5 No 7 coupon
200pts wyb S & G Spa
200pts wyb Pantene
200pts wyb No 7 product
300 pts wys £30

No problems scanning any of them BUT.......receipt says:

pts received: 44
PC offer pts: 200 (pantene)
Offer pts: 400 (No 7 plus S & G Spa 200 each)


No 300 pts wys £30.

And not given another No 7 voucher either! :mad: despite handing over a £10 GV and £5.56 in cash.

So........would you:

A. Ring CS & have a bit of a moanie or
B. Keep one's trap shut in view of all the vouchers/glitches used.

When I tried the 200 points Pantene with the 2 for £4 offer, till wouldn't accept it, but it looks as though you got those

Hee hee hee - well maybe you can try it for free - I bought the Q10 cleansing milk today in shop, it wasn't advertising the 400 points and they're not advertised on .com for the cleansing milk, which is why I saw this, but I got them. If you got 400 points for this, as it is £3.99 it would be free;)

Hey Patty! Ive been lurking on the marvelous Boots thread for a little while just finding my feet and its nice to see a familiar face! How are you?
Regular Bootser or just bored of Tesco at the moment? I certainly am after the complete lack of H&B this time. Did manage a large baby points shop the other day though, I've not completely left Mr.T! Just deciding whether to have a holiday, save for a car or get my eyes lasered!

Just summoning up the courage to do some boots shops, looks less scary than Tesco though so I think I'll be ok. Planning an illuminator/mascara/gwp and 17 eye shadow with gwp and then a P+P gift set for my mum (with another GWP of course )
Phew! Sounds like I'll be busy when I put it like that!

And I also *may* have a look at .com at 5.30amish later so I may see all you hard core bootsers later!
