All Boots seems to have different policy’s. What happens in one does not necessarily happen in another. :mad:

Successfully getting some of the better glitches often depends on if the SA you pick is willing to try. Its sometimes sensible to buy some other things to 'disguise' your bargain. If the SA won't put it through, please don't make a fuss - they are only doing their job. Just try again another SA / store / day. It is a good idea to try and make a friend in a SA if possible.

If you live far away it would be worth giving CS a call to check if the store you are heading to has any stock in.

:j :j Yippee! New thread! :j :j


Just found one of these £3 off Mens No7 vouchers in The Mail newspaper (see how I resist temptation and purposefully don't rush out to buy The Telegraph in pursuit of this but it still manages to find it's way to me!? and was wondering if this would work alongside the 350 ACM points off No 7 Washing and bathing if I were to get the £6 (or similar) mens body wash? Therefore meaning I would pay £3 for product and get 350 points back on card?

Also is it wrong to feel like I'm joint winner in a race of most vouchers used. :rotfl: Maybe I could count again and add one on.

Come on ladies, pollsdolls and I can't be the only ones to have fully utilised , these vouchers. Own up fellow addicts.

I seem to have acquired a few of these £3 vouchers and am going to try and use them with the 350 points ACM voucher. I have in the past used the ACM voucher with men's hair and body wash. The points had to be added manually but SAs were quite happy to do this.
I'm not sure how many £5 vouchers I used but know it was less than 10 so you seem to be joint winners:D

thanks CPG for the new thread:j
I got a bit lost on the old one and even ended up reading it backwards - not good:D
I caught up in the end but it is nice to have a new thread and know where I am:D
