Does anyone know if the till tells the SA that an item is on offer? It seems like the SA should tell you to get another one, and I know I have had SAs tell me something was 3 for 2 or BOGOF -- I never knew if they just were aware of the sale, or if the till gave them a prompt that an item was on offer. I also have gotten just two of something and later found it was 3 for 2 after I got home. If the till tells them about an offer and they aren't telling us, that's just crap service.

From what I've noticed the till will only tell the SA about a 342 or BOGOF if you have the correct number of items, eg: if you only have 2 items for a 342 then it won't flash up unless a third item is put through.
Yesterday an "offer" message came up on the till when I bought a hair colour but the SA didn't know what the offer was when I asked her, only that there was one IYSWIM.

In the past I've asked if an item was on 342 for example and the SA's seem to be able to check this somewhere on the till, I think they can bring up a list of offers if you query something, though they often have to check the SEL's like we do :rotfl:

I guess there are so many offers, vouchers, GWP's going on that they can't be expected to know them all, I've found the most "up to date" SA's are usually on the general multiple tills where they can swap info with each other as they spot new offers usually when us Bootsers have been in getting our glitches

You're a bit too late. These printable ones were usable until yesterday on N7 make-up.

But there will be other offers :rolleyes:

I have to say even though I was lucky with the TS offer, the Model Me offer is still annoying me, I have successfully done it 3 times with the Erin matt styling paste and Erin dry shampoo, tonight I just wanted 2 dry shampoos and the till bleeped and said criteria not met, so I swapped 1 for the matt paste again and it worked.

Very odd offer! Mr B if you're listening, we like glitches that work in our favour not confuse us and make the till bleep!

Was it deliberate that you didn't mention the £5 off NO7 cosmetics voucher:rotfl: Sorry pash but it was a good one:D I wouldn't worry though cos I'm sure good old Mr Boots has something else rolled up his sleeve for the not too distant future:T

LOL, no not deliberate, I'd forgotten that already as I didn't use any :rotfl:

Oh Pash, you really missed a good one there, it was like printing fivers :T :rotfl:
I can hear Pash saying Pah! already :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Many TIA,

You get a £5 off £20 spend on no 7/ruby and millie with the pregnancy booklet. (I think maybe the 12 months one too?) Some people have more than one via swapping vouchers/kind people on here giving them away/ebay/friends/pretend babies.
The offers you get depend on the age of your baby. You get book of coupons during pregnancy, after the birth, 3-9 months and 12 months.
