    Ooh, never thought of getting the Little Swimmers trial packs with this voucher! Good idea! :)

    Although a jobsworth till assistant might moan about using a Pull-ups voucher for Little Swimmers?

    Only triple points for me on huggies.

    The voucher in the little swimmers is only 50p not £1 as in the pull ups.

    Hmm, I've just thought of something: I haven't bought nappies in Boots in ages (quite a few months now - my litlle boy is dry during the day), maybe that's why it offered me the voucher? :confused:

    Or maybe it only offers the voucher to parents with kids of pull-up age? Not to parents of newborns, under-ones etc? :confused:

    Or maybe only if you'd bought pull-ups before? Although I'm not sure if I have... actually I haven't, not the Huggies ones (too expensive)! I'd bought the Pampers easy-up pants though.

    Dunno... Too many theories, wish I knew what the trick is! :)

    well, the health visitor cancelled so i went into town. my sister is a member of the parenting club, she is pregnant and also has a 5 year old, no huggies vouchers for her. i have a new baby and i was offered £1 off little swimmers. my boots don't have trial packs of those and i have washable swim nappies so i don't need to buy a pack of little swimmers. i tried it on the last trial pack of pull-ups and it didn't work. ho hum. worth a try.
