The Mitchum vouchers work together. I bought a roll on for 2.79. The 50 per cent off voucher took off 1.50 (more than half!), and then the 1 pound off voucher. I paid 29p.

Edited to add: Neither coupon beeped, btw.

Sorry for all the questions but want to get some bits for a local Refuge center and dont want the horrible beep!!:
Was this in Boots? And did you use a SS till or did the SA take 2 coupons for 1 product?

Also my Mitchum coupon barcode for 50% off is blurry..is yours??

Thanks!:p

Okay, just a skin care question, I'm at a wedding tomorrow (my mum's ) and my skin is looking a bit dull was gonna try out the 15 minute turnaround facial from clinique but I've never used it before. I know what you're all gonna say, don't try it in case you have a reaction or something but my skin isn't THAT sensitive, I was just wondering if it would make any difference after one use that's all

Hi hope you had (are having?) a good time at the wedding! I know it's a bit late now but I've got the facial and it won't make a difference after just one use. I don't know if many products will after just one use, but if your skin's looking dull, you need an AHA or BHA (alpha-hydroxy acid or beta-hydroxy acid) product which exfoliates off the top dead skin layers to reveal fresh, glowing skin underneath. This video explains all about them - if you have oily or blemish prone skin you need a BHA, a fantastic product with this which you can buy in boots is Clearasil Daily Blackhead Remover Pads (it's a bit of a misnomer to say they remove blackheads, but they should stop new ones coming). For AHAs I'm not sure, but all the Paula's Choice products are fantastic and there is 10% off all exfoliants if you order from the US site (which is much cheaper than the EU site) delivery is $9.50 or $2 if you spend $75 (about £38).

This is great. I thought I got a good deal in Asda today who are doing mitchum sprays at £2.18 each or 2 for £3. I bought 2 and handed over 2 50% coupons so they manualy took off £1.09 x 2 and I paid 82p for two.

Just a quick heads up, these are £4.99 but they're on offer in ahem... Superdrug (*hides*) at the moment, 2 for £6.99, so worth a bit of a stock up if you use them regularly, thanks again Palice for the recommendation :T

Yes, it was at Boots, and it was not a SS till (don't have those). The barcode wasn't blurry. I printed it at a size where you could get about 4 to a page if you did two side-by-side and two below (I think you could get two below, I didn't try as I just did a couple at first because it's an ink-intensive voucher). The first tiny ones I did looked too small so I made them bigger. Also, give the 50% off one first, as you want that taken off before deducting a pound.

I was a bit nervous. I did it twice -- once each in two different stores. The first time I wasn't sure it would work but had decided if only one coupon worked, I would buy it and get no more. I handed over just the 50 per cent one, and when it worked, I pulled the other out of the back of my handbag and said "Let's try this, I don't know if it will work, but I'll take the deodorant either way." The SA didn't look too thrilled, but she did it and was friendly after I paid. The next time I just handed it over, ready to say I bought some before and it worked fine if the SA complained, but she didn't. She joked about what a deal it was. I think you run a higher risk of problems if you go up with a basketful in one store -- some SAs would do it, others might give you a hassle. I'm sticking to one per visit per store (or at least one per SA, lol).

Now the question is, will it work on all fragrances and kinds of Mitchum? I got the Powder Fresh and fragrance free roll ons:

Went to Folkestone today and naturally to Boots, got some clearance at front of store, didn't venture too far around store as had BF with me and he cringes when I go bargain hunting. Anyway, picked up the last 2 Lynx sets, SA says oh, someone has been paying attention to the internet and laughed, said might have done! She laughed and said why not. Wish they could all be like that.
