(CLOSED) Boots Soft Toy Collection for GOSH

Hi everyone,

First of all thanks to everyone for all the great money saving tips - now here's a chance to give something back!

As I've already posted in another forum, I'm planning to collect as many soft toy vouchers as possible and use them to buy tons of soft toys which will then be donated to Great Ormond Street Hospital in London.

Here's where I need your help!

If you have any tokens lying around which you don't need then please can you send them to me! If you PM me I'll give you my address and I'll happily refund any postage costs via Paypal or send you an SAE to send them to me in.

I'll take the teddies down there at the end of November when the promotion ends and I'll post a pic on here to let everyone see how well we did.

Thanks for your time and apologies in advance for posting this on multiple forums but I want as many people to see this as possible.

Thanks!

    u get the vouchers if u spend more than £5 in boots, u need to collect 10 tokens to get a toy
    excellent idea addicted moneysaver, if i come across any ill let u know
    Would you destroy something perfect in order to make it beautiful?
  • I also think this is a great idea (but shop in Boots rarely these days). Any chance this can get a sticky and stay as one of the top threads until end of Nov?

    not every customer takes the vouchers has anyone thought to ask there local boots what they do with these vouchers.. mabey a box could be put at the end of each till for unwanted vouchers and then each day depending how much they have they could put away a toy or 2 for a local charity, hospital etc
    Those we love don't go away,They walk beside us every day,Unseen, unheard, but always near,
    Still loved, still missed and very dear
