Does anyone think that this will work
No7 nail file 4.00
highlights powder 10.25
use highlights voucher and £5 off voucher so both for free. Don't think i will try it in *that* store though.

I have a feeling someone has already tried this and it didn't work, but I can't find the post now! I don't think it works with accessories.

It should work as the pink voucher is for £5 off any No7. You could also "up" your spend by another £6 and this would entitle you to the GWP too.
Put all items through the till then hand over highlights voucher, then pink voucher. Use the main tills though, not No7

I bought a Virgin top-up from Boots the other day but when I got home and tried to enter the code, I discovered that they'd given me a Vodafone one instead. :mad: Anyone know whether they will refund it - I guess they can't prove whether or not I've used it?

Same thing happened to me, but I got a T Mobile instead of a Virgin one. Haven't been back to the shop yet, will be later today, so will let you know what happened

The pink voucher says "Excludes price reduced lines, Mix& Match sets, No7 Electrical Beauty and Beauty Accessories".

the pink 5.00 voucher WILL work, but I don't think the high lights voucher will work on accessories. (It doesn't work with p&p set either) someone please correct me if I am wrong:D

I'm going to try the 250 points with the £5 no. 7 voucher today with this:

http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/product_details_brand_treatment.jsp?productid=1057364&classificationid=1031592 (it's skincare right?)

Plan is to hand over the 250 points voucher first, then once the SA says "£7.00 please", I will 'find' <ahem> the £5 off no. 7 voucher, hand that over, with £2.00, thus they'll be actually paying me 50p to take it away

That should work shouldn't it?

This happened to me once and they wouldn't refund me :eek: so one of the shop assistants bought it off of me:D

Yup, it should.....

.....but in case you encounter one of the more miserable SAs, decide in advance what you want to do if she knocks back one voucher. I find this saves last minute hasty (and wrong!) decisions.

Good morning fellow Boots addicts

OK I have another question (sorry!)

Would this work?

1 x Hand Saviour £10.50
1 x Illum Powder £10.25 (or is it .75?)
1 x GWP

then vouchers handed over in this order:
250 points from previous GWP
Free Illum power voucher from mag
£5 pink No. 7 voucher

I'm not too bothered about the 250 points TBH as I already have £225 worth on my card :eek: :eek: ) but wouldn't mind yet another GWP to give to a friend.

Would appreciate advice, many thanks

Did this yesterday - got the GWP with no problem, but the 250 pts wouldn't scan and the SA read it very carefully and said "not with any other offers" - so I didn't like to push my luck.

Good thinking! Think I'll go with the £5 off one if I have to choose
