    the advnatage card machine is offering a free eyetest if you spend over 100 poinds on designer specs.

    but prob better to get free D and A eye test then get some cheap 20 quids specs online (see other thread) - but that's being very frugal!

    Thanks for that.....I got a really good deal thanks to a fanatstic sales assistant...my glasses were £210, he said he would throw in some sunglasses...frames of my choice, I chose some pink frames (very me!!) and he let me have the pink tint in them for free too...should have been about £70 to upgrade!!!! also I mentioned to him about the free eyetest in the machine (couldn't get a ticket to print) and he said he couldn't knock the money off but he could give me £15 in points!! all in all I walked out with just over £40 in points :) a free pair of sunglasses better than I was entitled to and the glasses I have had my eye on (so to speak)

    I have tried getting my glasses on line.....didn't work for me....couldn't wear them when I got them!!!!

  • I have had a reply from Boots re the Intuition razors (the cashier refused to let me have them on BOGOF, as they were already half price). Here's what they said:

    I am sorry to learn that after using our advantage card point to print off a buy
    one get one free offer, you where told that this offer was not available to you
    as the Intuition razors where already reduced.

    We normally do only have one offer available per transaction, which maybe why
    your voucher was declined. However I can certainly appreciate that we where
    advertising an offer via our kiosk you would expect us to honour it. And I have
    contacted our salesplan team to make them aware of your experience.

    I am sincerely sorry for the disappointment and inconvenience that this matter
    must have caused you. And I would very much like to send a £15.00 giftcard to
    you. Please forward your address details to me quoting your reference number


    I think the inconvenience was worth it!

    HI Sarah, just wondering how you contacted Boots and how long they took to get back to you? I emailed them last week and was wondering if I would hear from them soon. Thinking about it now I should've phoned them!!

    I emailed them at the beginning of last week via the website. I got an automated response, then a full response today.

  • Very pleased with No.7 gift box, come in handy for my holiday.

    Do you find great price difference between Boots.com and the stores?

    On Boots.com Boots Detox 5 day plan is only 6.75 pounds, while in the shop it is 13.50 pounds!

    They're out of stock again. Have been chasing this particular offer for some days now but no luck.
