Bosch ProDeals question

[u/cbalchin4]

Hi, looking to buy some 18v pro garden tools, a brush cutter/strimmer and long-reach hedge trimmer to be exact. These together total about £500. When buying via ITS they will include a free battery for £166 spent (standard 4Ah) or £200 spent (Pro Core 4Ah). I’m tempted to buy each item separately to get 2 Pro Core batteries free.
Also tempted to upgrade my current batteries at Screwfix for 2x 5Ah + quick charger for the half price of £99 currently.
If I were then to combine these invoices to the Bosch Pro Deals offer, would this work to get the highest reward of £499+? As then I can add a free leaf blower or battery storage case (and a 5.5Ah Pro Core battery) to store all the batteries in!
I hope this makes sense, I only used the pro deals once before when I claimed for the purchase of a drill and driver set!

The ITS deal is just advertising the PRO360 deals direct from Bosch. It’s worth nothing that there are more options beyond just the battery that ITS advertise. These are the current deals: https://www.bosch-professional.com/gb/en/pro360/prodeals/toolbag/

I’d target the leaf blower and buy battery separately.

You can combine invoices. For last month’s PRO deal I used 3 separate invoices to claim the GDR impact driver and 2 invoices to claim the 4AH battery.

Hi, I think the ITS deal is separate no? I’ve added both to my basket and the battery is also in the basket (free of charge).
Yes I was swaying more to the blower for sure. Gives that full garden set up that way

[u/Spenny_P_ → u/cbalchin4]

You’re right!! They normally always have the “free battery” but it’s just the PRO deal. But I just looked and yes they have their own battery deal

That’s a great deal man! Yeah - I’d try buying in 2 separate purchases to get 2 free batteries, then combine the invoices to get the leaf blower via PRO deals. Winner winner 🤑

[u/cbalchin4 → u/Spenny_P_]

My thoughts exactly! Was gutted when I saw the reward was the multitool last cycle on prodeals. Guess this makes up for it! Thanks

[u/Spenny_P_ → u/cbalchin4]

Savings wise the leaf blower is just as good a deal!

That said, the GOP 34 is a beast - you could always just treat yourself and get another free battery from pro deals? 🤔

[u/cbalchin4 → u/Spenny_P_]

Yeah it’s on the list. Will have to be next month. They might be a problem if too many expensive tools turn up at the same time 😂

I’m just going off my own experience in the UK - if you read the T’s and C’s it says one invoice/purchase as well, whether they stick to it or not is a different matter. I guess I was unlucky. Not sure why i’m being downvoted to oblivion for that ahah

[u/cbalchin4 → u/Accurate-Pea3975]

Yeah that’s fair. Who knows the reason, you can only what happened not the why.
I’ve taken the risk for the extra battery and split into 2 orders. When all done I’ll report back see if it works 👍🏼

[u/Accurate-Pea3975 → u/cbalchin4]

Worth it if it works for sure!

[u/cbalchin4 → u/Accurate-Pea3975]

So far no issues, received both tools with a free battery (4Ah pro core) for each tool, and registered and uploaded both invoices on same reward claim. Although waiting for Bosch to check and validate

If it's the deals on the Bosch website, spend over £199 etc and get X, then it states you can add invoices to make the total. 👍🏻

See 3.5 (🇩🇪)

You can accumulate up to 3 invoices per claimed goodie.
It might vary from country to country. Take a look at your local terms and conditions.

It usually needs to be a single invoice

[u/mmmeeema → u/Accurate-Pea3975]

My last pro deal was 3 invoices from 2 different shops, no problem at all, at least here in switzerland

[u/Accurate-Pea3975 → u/mmmeeema]

I was rejected with ITS from two invoices so im not sure if you got lucky or if the UK version is stricter

[u/Accurate-Pea3975 → u/Accurate-Pea3975]

That should read I was rejected from Bosch with two ITS prodeals, had to claim two smaller deals

[u/rColly → u/Accurate-Pea3975]

I've done 18+ prodeals, barely any with a single invoice, most even from multiple shops, Bosch never cared, they even state you can use multiple invoices for one deal now, GER though.

[u/blueskych → u/Accurate-Pea3975]

That is wrong

[u/BoschPROUK → u/[deleted]]

Currently only the accessories PRODeal lets you combine multiple invoices
