It wouldn't go through with the Boots Expert Sensitive Gentle Cleansing Bar either. Had to be added manually (by lovely SA :A ).

the SA I spoke to said it has to be used with the hair loss product which is the picture on the voucher. That may be what they intended but there is no mention of this on the voucher.

Just so happens I've got one right here on my desk. It quite clearly says "100 Advantage Card Points when you buy any Boots Expert Product."

T&C? One coupon per transaction, coupon for one use only. This offer cannot be used with any other offer."

So your SA is wrong.

Ok, Boots related first...... then I need a rant off topic but you'll understand why when I start.

I can confirm that the Frizz-ease 5ml original serum £1.99 DOES go thru' free with the £2 hair voucher or you can get the 25ml bottle for just £1.95.

Was able to print off 4 S&G vouchers (1 yesterday, 3 today) and combined each one with vouchers from mag to get 400 pts for each £5 S&G Spa item I bought.

If you are getting the 17 lip glaze, 342 offer and want to get the new foundation they are doing the ACM has a 50pts voucher for this which says it can be combined with current 342 offer, so don't take any nonsense from SA's


Now my rant - (not Boots related) I have 7 year old twins, one of whom is disabled.On Monday he is due an operation in London, it's a big op, he may even be able to walk (he never has) after this and lots of physio. I've made arrangements for his twin sister to stay with family for the week that we will be in London, she is so excited about this, and my son although disabled is fully aware of the fact he is having an op, is excited about going on the train to the hospital and although he doesn't understand everything he does know that this may help him walk in the future and he so wants to walk but......

they've just cancelled it :mad: :mad: :mad: and can't say when it will now happen (staff shortages). I've got to go and tell him now, when I get him from school, he's going to be so disappointed, so is my daughter and as for me:eek: my emotions can't cope!!!!

yes I know she is. It was a young lad on the till so I didn't want to stress him too much! Another SA came over and scrutinised the voucher said it was to be used with hair loss product and when I said does it say that on voucher she said no and i can add them on for you. By then I'd decided not to have the product:D Next time i will argue my case and i think they should put them on manually as it says any product.

Ditto, u poor thing. Hope they rearrange sooner rather than later. I work for the NHS and wouldn't recommend it. There's plenty of money for pen pushing exec's but little for frontline staff like myself!:smileyhea

Just managed to get the no7 mens shave gel for £6.00 with the 250 points from the gwp and the £5 No7 voucher. Went through the till with no problems :j

*Bright-Idea*, i hope they send you a new appointment pretty quickly even though the appointment for your son should have taken high priority and they have left cancellation so late,
just lots of hugs for you, but if you need to talk we are here for you

You poor thing :-( big hugs x

Ah that's terrible for all of you.
My eldest boy is disabled too (he's 5) and i know what a fight it is to get them what they need. I'm sure the hospital staff will be gutted too, I've been on both ends of this, working for the NHS as I do.
Hope you get a new date sorted soon and I'd like to wish your son all the best for when it does happen.
Take care.
