    well i'm back-am pleased to say I managed to get my no7 gwp & a couple of other bargains & got a survey spit too.
    I wanted the glossy locks but didn't want the voucher to beep so got
    2 bottles of tan maintainer & gwp £10 bogof
    2 botanics vitamin recovery masks reduced to £1
    2 packs of botanics wipes -free with above
    Reduced expert hair removal spray 99p but scanned at 65p
    Feria colour reduced to £3.78 which I need and use regularly anyway
    Totol to pay £16.73 minus till spit so £11.73 & 164 points(100 for expert)
    saved £25 according to reciept
    The clearance stand has dr lewinns , nuxe, avena, waxaway , bits of botanics and a couple of other bits at stupid prices but I think the expert spray and botanics are the best bargains.
    No mitchum in old style bottles, only cottons tampons reduced to 43p
    Forgot to to the try the trevor sorbie glitch & really want a rainbow pallete so will go back again tomorrow.
    Sa was really lovely and I got a till spit too!
    Love can tame the wildest

    Oh pants, my brain is not working this morning :rotfl: had 2.5 hrs sleep :rolleyes: I'll 'try' :rotfl:

    Little man is fine, but gone back to sleep :eek:

    Not sure if your saying you want to use ALL of your vouchers as they are burning a hole in your handbag, or not :confused: so have done what I would do if that were the case, leaving 1 x 500pts wys £10 Facial Sun ACM and 1 x 250 wyb No7 bathing range unused :rotfl:

    If I have got that completely wrong and you only really want the sun protection, shop 1 includes the £5 off No7 wys £20 PC :)

    Shop 1
    2 x No7 P&P Tan Enhancing/Firm-Your-Body Toning Sun Protection @ 12.00 = £24.00
    GWP
    BOGOF -£12.00
    Sun etc T/S -£5.00
    £5 off No7 wys £20 PC -£5.00
    500pts wyb No7 Sun Protection MAIL
    £2.00 and 548 pts

    Shop 2
    2 x No7 Protect & Perfect Anti-Ageing Lip & Eye Screen @ £5.75 = £11.50
    2 x No7 Glossy locks @£5.75 = £11.50
    GWP
    BOGOF -£11.50
    Sun etc T/S -£5.00
    £6.50 and 92 pts

    Shop 3
    2 x No7 Anti Ageing Anti-Dark Spot/Standard Facial Sun Protection @ £10.50 = £21.00
    GWP
    BOGOF -£10.50
    Sun etc T/S -£5.00
    500pts wys £10 Facial ACM
    £5.50 and 584 pts

    (next 2 shops a bit pants as you can not do a great deal with them :rolleyes: )

    Shop 4
    1 x No7 Micro-Dermabrasion @ 10.50
    1 x No7 from list below @ £10.00

    I'm really confused as to what makes the no7 BOGOF glitch work with the till spit and gwp now. Tan maintainer worked for you, but the facial suncare didn't work for sally06. :(

    Haven't managed to get to Boots today so hope this hasn't finished now:mad: Hope someone reports that it is still working as like you Sally I have my last PC voucher but don't want to 'spend' it yet, seems strange that the till would recognise over £20 spend for PC voucher but not for till spit:confused:

    I didn't want to use my last 5.00 off PC coupon either, but I had no choice. SA def scanned the tillspit, but I don't know why the till didn't deduct 5.00 from the total. In hindsight, I should've got 2 beach towels too. I'm sure the tillspit would've worked with a full 20.00 spend and they would've cost me 5.00 for both and I'd have them for my hols:rolleyes: Oh well, you win some you lose some. Maybe the tillspit only works with certain items or the 500points ACM voucher might actually cancel the tillspit when that is scanned:confused: I'm waiting to hear how other peeps got on today with using the new tillspit. I was going to buy the tan maintainer as peeps have reported the tillspit working with that, but I really wanted to try the dark spot facial suncare (done too much sunbathing over the years!) I still got a bargain though and 3 TS hair products for nought, so I can't really complain:D

    Here's a pic of the 3 products I got free with express voucher, mag voucher and PC coupon:hero.jpghero.jpghero.jpg

    Broclo: I hope your son is feeling better today

    Skitten: congrats on your engagement:beer:

    I'm confused too-I don't even need the tan maintainer as my skin is naturally brown and doesn't tan so the other items would have been better for me but I was worried about them not working with the till spit & really wanted the gwp so got the tan maintanier.

    Since reading so many reports of nasty SA's (99.9% of which are female)refusing vouchers, reporting peeps to CS, cancelling ad cards, making snide comments and taking away points, I have starting seeking out male SA's at the tills. Luckly, we have 3 lovely male SA's at my local store (I touch wood as I write:D ) who never question the amount of vouchers I hand over, they never read the t&cs (most female SA's at the same store do!) and congratulate me on my great bargains...bring on the men:rotfl:

    Hi Sally06,

    Did the till spit not scan at our local by any chance because I was hoping to try the dark spot suncream with my till spit tomorrow in town but if it didn't work for you then I won't try it.

    TIA

    Oh I am really confused now:o , the dark spot one worked yesterday for some I seem to remember including the 500 points from ACM, I might try and brave it tomorrow but trying to think of an excuse if it goes pear shaped...perhaps I might try the till spit first and then the points voucher

    Found this from Sarah Skint yesterday and I was kinda hoping to do this 3 times too
    snipped......
    that 5.00 new tillspit has confused me lol, but i still used 3

    sun facial 50+ 10.50 x2
    gwp
    total 10.50
    handed over 500 points suncare and tillspit
    total to pay 5.50 and 500 points

    will post more later lol
    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.

    I handed them over in that order AM thinking the tillspit might not work if I did it the other way round. I'm wondering now if the SA scanned the voucher incorrectly:confused: I had so many vouchers, so I didn't notice until he asked for 10.50 I did mention to the SA I thought 1 of my vouchers hadn't scanned, but he said he'd scanned everyone. I didn't want to make a fuss, so I said ok then and left. This will teach me to keep a close eye on the till in future:rolleyes:


    jemclajess, yes, it was at our local store. BTW the clearance shelf was empty:eek: I was going to get some more 50p botanics items and free wipes, but nothing there!
