Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 20 - Post your finds here

Yes, you get GWP with points. I bought one of the No7 mirrors (£19.99) with points and asked the SA if I would get the GWP if I got another small No7 item to take the total to over £20. She said no, so I didn't. Then I took a second thought and queried it with CS, who said that they tried their very best to ensure their staff were properly trained (!!) in the correct procedures (!!!!) and credited 1500 points to my card as compensation. I had already got five of the pink GWP, so I was more than happy with 1500 points rather than a sixth one!

So away you go and complain. Tip.....if you complain by email or snail mail, put your Advantage card no on it so that they can track the purchase and so it's ready to hand for them to award you some points as compensation. They'd rather do that than go through the procedure to send you a GWP, I think.

Chiswick: Suede Sanctuary weekender boxes for 10.00 (but I wasn't tempted)

You can use the £3 off Sanctuary vouchers on these, plus you'll get the GWP if your branch has any left. AND both the Weekender bag and the GWP have £3 off vouchers in them. Bloomin' good deal if you ask me!

Hi Val

Got any good bargains today. Thinking of going to Fort Kinnaird tomorrow.

Been to Westfields today. I had to snigger a bit as even the SA commented that *it was nice to find a voucher that actually worked*:rolleyes: . I'd given her the 17 one........I did ask her if it was the Expert ones that were giving them grief & she said yes. So i think it's nationwide.

Bit of a mission for everyone now:

Have had an email today about a Lacoste/Max Factor special edition set that's supposed to be out. It's a bottle of pink lacoste plus a Max factor mascara in a pink box.....retails at £29.99 (saving of £10 on individual prices)
So........if anyone in the east mids spots one on their travels.....can you let me know please

Yes you can.

Dotchas: I've just found this on crazyposhgal's first post.


Thanks Sam84uk

I have just sent an email to CS,asking why card holders with points should not get the GWP.Hopefully they will respond!

I will let you know

I saw one today in Edinburgh while I was being refused my No7 Gwp!
Probably a bit far!

Im sure I have seen the set you have mentioned But if I remember correctly the lacoste perfume is not a big bottle at all-I thought it was a smallish bottle-similar to the size they were giving away free at xmas with the big bottle. That said I might check again tomorrow, It might have looked tiny compared to the enormous bottle my sister has at home(which I always use when she's not around):D

I'd be tempted if the cupboards aren't already groaning with balms, creams, powders, lotions, moisturisers, etc etc etc.....trying to be good coz there's another glitch just around the corner...I can feel it....

Not long back from the same Boots...some good stuff on the sheves ( for a change ) an they were actually quite full too. Along with the stuff nettienoo reported there was also some garnier cellulite rollerballs green one was 80p and yellow I think £3.xx. Nutrogena deep clean creme cleanser 40p. Botanics Hair minimising Body lotion 55p, Charles Wortington Hair Gel 50p .

Had Garnier eye cream (loads!!) that has been going through and taking the further £2.00 off however it was piced at £4.24..so didn't bother

i would try and take your S&G stuff back and just expalin that you bought the wrong one . See if you can get the refund as they have not got the one you were really supposed to buy?


Thanks Sam84uk for the vouchers they worked a treat;)

:A

Did you manage to get the Sanctuary GWP (unless I have the wrong bootser lol) as I know you have been after one.
