    woo hoo - I managed to get the T&G shampoo and conditioner - took it to the till and the SA was really surprised when it came up at £7.00 but she then went off on her lunch break to stock up on the stuff herself!!

    I don't normally manage to blag the bargains going at Boots, but did get this one (several times!!)

    Thanks to everyone for the tip.

  • Travelling to the bigger boots 20 miles away hoping the advantage machine will have coupons for me - going through posts now to remind myself of all the bargains!
    In our local boots(who does not have a machine) have 2 pantene bottles for £6.50. 950ml they are too.... works out very close to the toni + guy offer!

    my boots have the 2 bottles for £7 offer in small labels on the shelves under all of the normal sized toni and guy bottles, and nothing under the large bottles, so they want you to think it doesn't include them. i picked up 2 large bottles and a woman next to me buying the normal sized ones told me i'd be better off buying those - i told her the large ones were 2 for £7 too but she didn't believe me lol! she ran off to change hers for large ones when she saw mine go through the ill lol! i got a 250 points voucher from the advantage point, it's the first toni and guy voucher i'd printed.


    i got a grumpy shop assistant today - i'd bought a few things such as christmas presents on 3 for 2 to make my toni and guy, first aid kit and evening primrose purchases up to the £25 total spend needed for my extra 300 points (the machine normally says i have to spend £30, i prefer spending £25 lol!) and she told me i could only use one voucher!! i had a primrose one, a first aid one, a 300 total spend one, a toni and guy one and a 50 points on flu products one (i bought the boots sinus tablets reduced to 99p). she was adamant that the till would only accept one voucher, so i just smiled and asked her to try them, she had a face like thunder when it all worked and i got 1302 points on a £25.38 spend lol!

    then i wanted to use my points to buy a fragrance gift pack (£30) and she said i wouldn't be able to because it was a voucher, but i asked her to try and it worked :-)

    Good day at Boots for me today, got the big T&G 2 for £7, 400 points for a £35 spend from the machine, BOGOF's on cotton wool buds, blister plasters, bought 2 Mx Factor powder things and got a free sparkly evening bag, the first aid kit went through but no points even though the assistant had said it had gone through, so got those added on too but even then I somehow managed to make £15 in points today.....

    started at £2.38 and ended up at £17.59.....no idea how..

    A very obvious and thick question do the offers on boots.com relate to the offers in store. And vice versa.

    As on boots.com the natural collection is on offer. But instore not. As I really wanted some for a Xmas present.

    Also is it ok to purchase with a voucher gift cards?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yours
