    Visited my Mum yesterday and her local Kentish Express newspaper had a page of miscellaneous shopping coupons including 2 for Boots.

    £2 off Time Delay Day Moisturiser SPF8 or SPF15.
    £2 off Time Delay Instant Lip Plumper or Restoring Night Moisturiser.

    Coupons can be used in any Boots store. Valid until 24th June I think - bit hard to read as it is in small print.

    Anyway in small Boots by station tonight found SPF8 moisturiser reduced to £3.99. Used 100 points on Time Delay from ACM and the £2 off. So £1.99 and £1 back in points. :cool: Bargain! Coupon scanned fine.

    Kentish Express is sold across Kent under various names I believe e.g. Kent Messenger etc. so worth checking your local paper if you live in Kent. The front page advertised coupons off your shopping and I think this is current edition which came out last Thursday. None were specific to Kent though so they may be in local newspapers across the country hopefully;) . HTH someone.

    Thanks for that, i dont normally buy it but will go get one! x

    Not a bad shop yday...I got:

    Olay Total Effects Hand Treatment £4.97
    Olay Daily Facials Express £4.49
    Memory Card £3.75
    No7 Colour Miracle Nail Polish In Plum £6.50

    Total Spend: £19.71

    I used:

    600 Points on Olay PC Voucher
    Free Olay Wipes PC Voucher
    500 Points Memory Card ACM Voucher
    £5.00 Off No7 Email Voucher

    New Total: £10.22 and 1350 points! :T

    What a shame I didn't have a 500 points on Olay voucher too & also the ACM machine was out of order so didn't get to check for any other vouchers.

    Ooh I just realised that I forgot to add the 250 points on No7 from GWP!
    Our 1st baby is due 29th December 2007! :rudolf:
    I'm hopeful that this get's me out of cooking Christmas dinner!

    Baby Ruby arrived after 55 hours of labour & an emergency c section on Christmas Day at 14.41 weighing 6lb 6oz...And yes I did get out of cooking Christmas dinner!!:rotfl:

    It might be worth ringing CS. Another poster didn't get their voucher and ended up with a decent amount of points.

    As for ringing up once this year already?? That's nothing :) I think some posters have CS on speed-dial and ring daily, if not twice daily :confused:;)

    Good luck.

    I know at least one person who was actually told by CS that she had a history of making complaints because she'd called twice in a year, so on her third call they wouldn't help. Some people have CS on speed dial and get helped each time, but I don't call over little things as I don't want to be refused help on a big problem.

    Hi guys,

    I am a total Bootsing newbie. I am armed with £5 off No7 vouchers and am off to Boots today - please could you advise how I can make the most of my trip? Not sure if my boots has an ACM.......

    Many thanks - you guys rock! :j

    Ciao! :D Have been busy booking Caribbean cruise for end of the year, Yay! :j

    Yep, this combo (250 points from female GWP + eyeshadow/concealer brush + £5 off No7 make up voucher) worked for me this afternoon no probs, so 250 points for 75p ;)


    EDIT: You're very welcome pollsdolls, glad you had a great time in Manchester xxx

    I can also confirm this. I used the online £5 voucher + 250 points from the GWP to get nail varnishes (nail care, miracle one with 2 colours). 1.50 or 1.25 to pay. The N7 SA put both through, though they had to type in the code for the online voucher to work, since it would not scan. Great bargain!!

    My online vouchers are black, since I've got no colour printer, but didn't have a problem. I did print them quite big to make the code clear.

    My eyes are sore i have skim read back through all the pages to find the product code for the med GWP i know i keep banging on about it but it has become a bit of an obesssion with me now i just have to have one.

    I'm reading backwards and I can't find the answer to kitiaracat question. And what's up with this med specific product? Or is it the med GWP (body butter gift set)?

    That's a well thought out shop. :T

    Could I just ask about the Bathing ACM points though? I have the 350 one but know nothing about the 300 points voucher. Is it just a case of being lucky to get different ones through the ACM? Seems strange there are two for washing and bathing.
    I used one voucher from my card and the other was from my friends card! As they were for different ammounts they went through together fine (and the SA didnt notice the different names)
    Will not spend more money:naughty:, but will spend more time looking for that great bargain!:dance:
  • I received the email about the £5 voucher for No7 make up but my printer is only printing in black. I thought it just need new colour ink but it didn't as I got some on Saturday. Will they accept the voucher printed in b/w is what I want to know?

    I can take a copy of the email I received it in if that would help.

    Yes I think black and white will be fine, some of the other ladies on here have used them hth.
