Hi Peeps is it the Max Factor eye liner thats going through free with out buying any other Max Factor product? Sorry if it's been asked a million times before but I am very slow , I was going to try it the other day but was to scared, also does it have to be SS or can you take it to any till?

TIA

I haven't heard of that one (though maybe I missed it?). What people have definitely been talking about is that the MF gwp (the bronzing one) is now going through free. If they have it in your store and you're nervous, you could always buy a cheap MF item and some other things and get it that way. Some people will go to an SA with just a gwp and buy nothing else, but you have to have nerves of steel and the ability to deal with it if the SA gets nasty -- which I don't have the nerve to do most days!

There is always a risk of being denied, so you may want to prepare a story as to why you then want to leave the MF item you were going to buy! Like you thought the gwp was free with anything, and if it's not, say you'll go pick out more items later. Or you could just toss it in with other purchases, none from max factor, and hope they don't notice or question why it went through for free. I generally don't try this as it never works for me, but it has for lots of other people.

Well done sk you truely are the boots queen. I have said it before but you do have the best stores for stock, In my store after the new re-fit we are luckly if there is 4 of each products out on the shelf. I love the RM bags i want some but no RM range near me boo hoo no max factor gwp either. I'm desperate for them for my raffles, Got to start collecting for xmas fairs. Did you say you mainly use ss tills? I don't get to go to a store that has them often but i might try next time i do. It's just i found them really embarrassing as the SA was stood right next to them and the computer shouted very loudly 1 ITEM FREE! she was in my bag like a shot looking to see what it was, i think i had used a pinky to get something the last time they were out.

Yes to both, unless you get a nasty SA! Last week I got two no7 facial suncare products at 10.50 each (and bogof). The till rang up 10.50, but counted the original price of the items, so I got the gift bag. Then I handed over the PC voucher -- you have to use this first as it is off a £20 spend, and the till still thinks you've spent £20 (if you deduct £5 off with the pink voucher first, you will have undercut your total). THEN hand over the pink £5 off voucher. I paid 50p for the lot! If the suncare is now half off and bogof at your store, you need to get twice as much to make this deal work -- though it will still cost you the same as I paid last week!

This works no matter what you want to buy, though obviously if the items aren't bogof, you really do need to spend £20 before vouchers are used. Just make sure they ring the gwp up before handing over any vouchers, then hand over the PC voucher first! And if at all possible, do all of this away from the NO7 counter, as they are more likely to squelch any glitch deals! hth

If you spend £20 the bag will be free regardless.
You need the till to think you have spent £20 so as suncare is BOGOF you need buy only 2 tan maintainers at £10.50. Till thinks you have reached the £20 threshold so free bag. Till then does the BOGOF so adjusts total to £10.50. I think this is where you hand over the PC first then the pinky so balance to pay 50p.

This is SA dependant in some cases.

I think though that the PC voucher might be useful to keep for another glitch another day so you always have a £5 to play with IYKWIM.

Hi Beth and welcome!

Yes you can use both vouchers although it is SA dependant.Best to avoid paying at no7 till and stick a few other bits in your basket the first time.I like going to tills with young guys on as I assume they don't know the value of you goodies and just scan everything through the tills.
Remember No7 suncare is BOGOF so 2 suncare at £10.50 will get you a gwp and you can use both vouchers and pay 50p If you are brave!!!!!
