  • The sign with the GWP says free WYS £20 on all No7 so it should go through ok, pink voucher would be a problem though unless SA would override it.

    She said she had been asked many times for them and had rang head office to ask why they hadn't had them. She was told that only the big stores were getting them, but she is in a big store.
    The person at her head office said she couldn't understand why they hadn't had any. So she asked if she could order some.

    She was told that she couldn't order any as they had only had limited stock of them - hence why its only the bigger stores that got them, and they have now run out and have got no more to send out to shops.

    So if your local store tells you they are expecting more in, unless they have been already been packed and are waiting to be sent out to them, it is unlikely that they will be getting them.

    So buy them when you see them.



    Hartlepool store in the town centre had a stand full of these today I'd say about 25/30 sets. I wouldn't say it was big store though so maybe they are just sending them out on a random store basis.

    Hi,

    I know we aren't suppose to do any swapping here but I don't really log onto paidtoshop as i'm glued to mse.:p

    i'm keen on getting 1 x £5 boots pink skincare voucher if any fellow bootsers aren't going to use theirs.

    I have a 500 points when you spend £10 or more in the baby department (expires at the end of this month) to swap.

    Or perhaps some non store specific money off coupons which expire at the end of this month (not sure how much I have but please specify amount you want) to swap.

    Got my swap sorted so thank you!!!!!! :D

    thanks for the advice guys! never saw the attraction really with them, but my bog standard bathroom mirror is a pain when doing makeup with a light on plus i quite fancy the new GWP is it really nice? ...and a free highlighter won't do bad.


    I have a boy-mate who works on pharmacy...hes your average dozy saturday type which we all love...except if the till beeps, he just won't try it, regardless of the fact he's probably going to be my best man at our wedding...! I think quite frankly on that basis he should be reduced to Usher but thats another story! Whats the use in having a boots insider who is a stickler for the rules?! LOL.!

  • Hi, everyone.
    I bought yesterday £13 Heavenly Hydration mask, ILLUM powder(thanks to moneysaver12 and dollardog) plus GWP.
    Just want to say that HH mask is awesome, it does work and leave your skin smooth, radiant and fresh.
  • I'm going into Boots tomorrow and fancy treating myself to a self indulgent face mask so think I will get the HH one

    I want a decent body scrub too, any suggestions?

    Also stocking up on Scar serum, love the feel of it on my face

    Need to plan my shops properly to gain some vouchers:rotfl:

    i have pm you
  • I have been reading this thread for ages now and decided to go bootsing for the first time last week with my parenting club vouchers. I had a complete nightmare. First I tried to use the Free Camera voucher against two waterproof cameras but the sales assistant said that it wasn't valid against these cameras (I know now that it is) Then I picked up 2 normal disposable cameras and so she said I could only have one free! I then tried to use two half price experts vouchers against two packets of baby wipes (That were on BOGOF as per pre mentioned glitch) but she handed me a voucher back and said I couldn't use two. I found out later that she hadn't even scanned a voucher so I ended up paying full price. I then tried to use two vouchers against some allways stuff but she again refused to use the two vouchers together. I put in a complaint to Boots customers services about the member of staff's attitude but just got an email saying that they will investigate further! Maybe I am being a bit cheeky but I was kinda hoping for some points to be added to my advantage card as so many others have. Any clues as to what to do???? I am hopeless when it comes to complaining. Boots have asked me to give a description of the "Rude lady that served me" but I haven't responded yet. Any help off any of you experienced Bootsters is greatly appreciated.

    Hi guys,

    Why do some Boots stores have crazy discounts and others do not?

    I went to my local store last weekend (which is a big store on 2 floors) and there was one small shelf with discounted items. The stuff on the shelf was either damaged or in broken packaging etc and the discounts were mean, like just 50p off because it was damaged! There were no bargains to be had at all.

    I notice that lots of Bootsters on here find bargains like the Ltd Ed No 7 eye pallets for 40p - I bought 4 of those before Christmas and they were £9 each!!!

    I spent over £43 (in 2 transactions) and was not allowed to use my extra points with my purchase voucher because I used the Illum voucher. Seems unfair that there are different rules and discounts in different stores.

    Anyone else found this?

    Lemony x

    The £5 off excludes electricals so you will have a problem with that. In my experience the highlighter doesn't work with much other than the skincare and cosmetics {although it says with any no 7 product }and have even then had some problems if attempting to get the gwp as some have said they have set it so you can't have both.
    As to the gift with purchase I don't know whether you can get that with the electricals either would make a great mothersday combo though. As always depends on sa willingness. The highlighter vouchers are a bit on the scarce side as some stores have got the new mag although not supposed to have out till March. Good luck would quite like the mirror myself.

    I'm not sure which vouchers work with the mirror or whether you'd get GWP, because I got mine ages ago. But, I just wanted to let peeps know - who haven't got the mirror yet - how good it is. It's one of the best items I've ever bought from Boots. It's a bit scarey at first, when you see yourself so close up, but you soon get used to that, and It's amazing for plucking your eye brows. Mine have never been so neat:D
