Basically, the dearer the product, the cheaper they are, as the till takes off more for the 2 for £3 offer.
The price to pay is the price for the pair of products.

So if you were to get 4 x £2.99 products, and use 1 voucher, they should all be free.
If you do 4 x £2.49 products, you would pay £1
If you do 4 x £1.99 products, then you will pay £2

One more....hope Im not confusing you!!

The expert glitch

two vouchers with two diff codes - ***92 and ***93

work together to take 1/2 price off each, making the expert baby skincare item free

(wipes apparently not skincare)

The current instore offer of 2 for £3 means that with any 2 items you buy, the difference between their total and the £3 is the amount that you get off the rest of your shopping

OK - an example ;

http://www.boots.com/shop/product_de...5&slmRefer=000

Boots Expert Baby Sensitive Moisturising Cream 100ml

6 @ £2.49 = 14.94

- 1/2 price with PC voucher = (£1.25 x 6) £7.50

- 1/2 price with 2nd PC voucher = (as above)

- 2for £3 instore discount = (2x£2.49 = £4.98 which is £1.98 over £3) (£1.98 x 3) £5.94

Total cost for 6 moisturising creams is £14.94

Total discounts are £7.50, £7.50 and £5.94 = £20.94 -14.94 (orignal price)

SO you need to but something for over £6 to make sure they dont owe you any money!!

You need to buy in even numbers to make the most of the discount due to the 2 for £3 deal

Are you looking at using one Expert voucher or 2?

There's 2 Expert vouchers, the barcode on one ends in 92 and the other one has a barcode ending 93 so you can use both in the same transaction. I'm guessing you'll be using the 1 voucher then (unless you can dig the other out???). I posted about how it works with one voucher so I'll just find it to quote. If you have just the 1 voucher and buy 8 or 10 £2.99 items then they'll go through FREE.

Ok so if you use 1 voucher then you get any mutiple of 2 products that cost £2.9 free...on anything less you pay £1 or 50p per item.

BUt if you use 2 vouchers then the till has to give you money off your shopping!!!

It was in the last thread so can't quote it so here it is copied & pasted....
Expert glitch with one half price voucher should work out as follows:

There's 3 different prices for the Baby Expert stuff: £1.99 for the bath, shampoo, head to toe wash. £2.49 for the bottom balm, moisturiser. £2.99 for the baby oil.

2x Baby Expert items @ £1.99 each = £3.98 - 0.98 (2 for £3 deal) - 2.00 (half price) = £1.00 to pay

2x Baby Expert items @ £2.49 each = £4.98 - 1.98 (2 for £3 deal) - 2.50 (half price) = 50p to pay

2x Baby Expert items @ £2.99 each = £5.98 - 2.98 (2 for £3 deal) - 3.00 (half price) = £0 to pay

I was looking for this earlier!

If you use both of the half price vouchers then the half price is taken off twice making all of your Expert items free but then the 2 for £3 discount also comes off so Boots end up owing you! Best thing is to buy other stuff to disguise this.
