    Great list thanks :beer:

    Olay TE effects hand cream does not work (wish it did! :( ), tried in 2 stores today on own and with all vouchers you mention for olay. We figured it was cos of the 'facial skincare' clause on the spit, yet the Time Delay hand and nail cream works?? :confused: Really strange how boots operates its own 'definitions'...

    Thanks, I'll edit the list now ;)
    Gutted about the olay :mad:
  • anyone notice how you can't use the vouchers with reduced items any more. Last year i was using loads of stuff from the reduced shelf and coupons working fine. There are spies here I tell you!!
    :j I sometimes give myself admirable advice, but am incapable of taking it.

    Oooo can't see why not! Anyone used a previous £5 voucher off of multiple items? Obviously it is cheaper to use 1 per pack of wipes, but if you've not got tons then great idea!

    Yeah, you're right, it still works out better to get one at a time. I was thinking of way to use the 100 points, but not worth it that way! lol

    These are fab! Got some last time and still using them.
    Olay Total Effects
    cleanser (not sure about price, not online)

    That is 5.99 for the cleanser (with exfoliating beads), and 6.99 for the Total Effects thermal polisher. I bought both of these; haven't tried the later yet, but the former I don't like quite as much as the more costly Regenerist version. It just feels/smells slightly different.

    i had thought boots had run out of the h&b mags as I was after the wisdom floss voucher but hooray hoorah i found one today eventually in woking and got the floss half price, plus they had a few of the med almond soaps so used the acm voucher and got one of the mini body butters for a total of £2. this will be useful debulking on toilettres(sp?) when travelling.
    On another note I went to buy a normal mag in boots last week with my points and was told it may not go through! i argued the toss saying surely anything you buy in boots can be purchased with points but this SA had had problems with some of the mags before, luckily mine did go through.

    OMG, I have done exactly that with Boots logo! :eek: Glad i'm not the only one :o

    Awww I'll bet they look great :)

    Carrying both sets of T and B coupons around don't half weigh some
  • Went to sheffield and mhall on tuesday just to let you know, sheffield has 2 olay bags the gwp on the shelf.

    Meadowhall will be stocking the gorgeous bags they had run out shame.
    They also have the pantene gwp in stock

    I spotted a lady looking at the clearance no7 and wondered if she would be buying any skincare. she didn't think so until i said shame i have 3 250point no7 vouchers that expire today and i wont be using. She said oh yes pleased and scooted off to no7 counter to look.
    Only found in my purse mon night or i would have sent to lovely boots peeps.

    Spotted another lady buying green amazon bag but no soap so told her she would get free soap with atm so she left the queue and went to get one. I like helping other shoppers sometimes can't resist.

    what vouchers do you mean?

    the cosmetic till spit didn't work for me on a reduced RM brush but I've seen quite a few posts from those it did work for.

    or do you mean the new till spits or ACM vouchers?

    I think they mean the £2 till spit on reduced items Boo

    EDIT: looking back, it may be the new £5 one, as OP mentions 'last year' :confused:

    If anyone has a spare voucher I would be most grateful for it. Glad to send a SAE and other coupons that you might be interest too ;)

    anta, You have a PM:D CPG, you have one too:D

    I had my eye hospital apt today (at long last!) and to take my mind of it, I went bootsing beforehand:D

    Edgware road (near paddington) had loads of boujous make-up at 1/2 marked price, but they hadn't put stickers on the items, so the SA was altering the price on the till and none of my 2.00 vouchers would scan:mad: I gave up in the end. All I bought was a sanex deodrant reduced to 50p - 40p Moc from best = 10p:j and a boots roll on for 18p

    I probably have more spare metro/revlon vouchers and will let you all know when I have counted them. I picked -up a copy of the metro while I was on the train this morning and when I spotted the voucher DD and I collected all the disgarded metro papers in our carriage and ripped out all the vouchers:D
