Yes, if you spend £20 before handing over your printed voucher, you should get a No7 gwp and if you're buying the mascara, you'll get the brush kit, too. If the other items you get include suncare, you can use 200 points from the Boots mag. And I'm not sure, but I think you could use the 250 points on color cosmetics which will be inside your gwp (if you get the women's one) on your mascara?
Say you got the no7 sunscreen (I think one of the varities is 9.50 and bogof), your total would be £20, then reduced to £15 with the coupon, you'd get 450 in points and two gwps. You could get other suncare, like one glossy spritz and one lipcare, which is 5.75 but the register will think it's 11.50. So in that case you're actual total would be £16.25, and I *think* the printed voucher would work here, but someone else would have to confirm that (in which case your total to pay would be £11.25 after the voucher and still 450 back in points). You could also use a PC coupon for £5 if you had it, but I'm guessing you don't since you didn't mention it.It's fun doing "Boots math".
Edit: Oh, and yesterday I got an NC bag with a reduced headband (and another with a full-priced face mask at 99p).'They only had one cow!'0 -

My mum goes into Christies in a couple of weeks for major, surgery. (bowel cancer has returned after 5 years, so full bowel removal, hysterectomy, hernia and new kidney tubes)Anyway, sorry, (I ramble a lot!)I went to boots this morning and got 5 nail varnishes, nail and cuticle cream, (nail file, nivea hand cream mini and nail varnish removal pads from bodycare :eek: I know I know but far cheaper!). I'm gonna put them all in the NC GWP i got the other day and I'm going to give it to her when she comes home from hospital, she wont be able to do much for herself for a while but she can sit and do her nails! :j
Sorry for going on, just wanted to say thank you so much to Polls for posting the voucher (I never get any of them or the mailings). You've made me (and soon my mum!) very happy.
Treated myself to a few as well, well it would be rude not to!!lol
Thanks

P.s sorry for rambling on:o
What a lovely idea, it's lovely to hear how these Boots glitches can make a genuine difference to someone instead of people being greedy and making profits on a certain site :mad::mad:
Sorry to hear about your mum, she's had a rough time, I hope it all goes well for her0 -
You can use as many vouchers from the backs of magazines as you want, but only one of each coupon per transaction. If you want to use a second of the same coupon, you just have to do a separate transaction (and a third, fourth, fifth, lol).
Oh good! I'd much rather gets lots of yummy stuff (over and over again - where's my restraint!) while being legit. :rotfl:

I used some Amazing eyes eyeliner last night and nearly popped my eyeballs out trying to remove it! Don't know what they're putting in their eye pencils but they are there to stay!Or maybe my old brand just came off too easily, who knows?
Do No7 do a nail varnish remover? Don't think I noticed any.
Also did I read (god knows where now) about someone finding a instant tan wipe thingy and getting the suncare points voucher to work with it? I could have dreamt it mind! Don't think I've seen any of those either though.
Last point to make (promise) I'm pretty sure that the mascara in the GWP irritated my eyes when I tried it so if any of you have sensitive eyes be aware.0 -

I managed to find a tan corrector wipe in a reduced bit for 25p (might have been 20p I can't remember now!) and the 200 pts worked against it. Was a few weeks ago now. I think someone else has also found a reduced one (5p???) that worked with the mag voucher.

Nope, they're in store too, though not all stores have them yet I guess (referring to the blue-box gwp for Dream Lash mascara).0 -

Glad I didnt dream it! Well done, quite a find. I will be searching from now on as I really dont need any more suncare but want points.

P.s sorry for rambling on:oSorry to hear about your mum...hope everything goes well(p.s you sound like a fab daughter)This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.Robert M. Hutchins0
