    found today in my T^sco 400ml Pantene with promo packaging . could anyone advise me please, can I buy shampoo & conditioner or it's just one product per household? thanks.

    it says in the T&Cs one entry per person. So I would think that is just one item (shampoo or conditioner) but then it says "and/or the dry oil." Be aware you need to send the product back in original packaging! not sure how much you need to leave in the bottle!!
    See all the full t&cs here:

    Don't you feel you are scamming the company. Basically robbing a promoion?

    If we actually read the reasons I bet half of them are rubbish. Just want free stuff aye?

    Thats if you don't like the product? "If you don't like the product get your money back"

    Still kind of robbing the companies? resulting higher prices for all?

    If I understand you correctly then I get where you are coming from.

    I take advantage of some 'Try Me Free' promotions but not 'Money Back Guarantee' type promotions because i'm not comfortable from a moral point of view buying a product intending to claim money back regardless of whether I liked the product or not.

    I'm sure the companies are aware and take into account a certain amount of claims are not necessarily made because the person doesn't actually dislike the product but, as much as I like a freebie, this type of claim for money back is not for me.

    Not at all. TMF promos asked the person claiming the money please tell us why you like or do not like the product.

    I am with you on this. I am more than happy to do Try Me Free's but stay well clear of the Money Back Guarantee's. With the TMF's, it makes no difference if you like the product as you get your money back anyway. With the MBG's, you end up telling porkies if you like the product and still want your money back. Been there a few times and no longer feel comfortable doing it.

    I only try the money back guarantee if I have a genuine interest in the product, and if it works - then I don't request my money back, and instead feel pleased that I had a chance to try something that actually works!
    That's why I appreciate people posting the money back guarantee offers too - as every now and then something will pop up that I genuinely would want to try. For example, I have bad adult acne/scarring, so the recent money back guarantee on the Effaclar Duo face cream has been a good opportunity for me to try a new product on the guarantee that if it works I'll be delighted, but if it doesn't I've not wasted yet another £15 on another product which promises to help, but doesn't!
