Today I tried to use a pinky to get the old gwp, the cardboard bag with miniatures, and mens washbag with miniatures, they are on sale at my local for £6.50 each but couldnt get either with pinky as they are classed as gift set!

a quick question. if you use points to pay for something do you still get till spits ?
today spent £6 paid in cash and only got skincare one. i queried what you have to do to get no7 one sa didnt know but gave me one anyway:j

No, you don't get nada when you pay with points.

Today my SA didn't give me a pink voucher, and I innocently said, "Oh, don't I get a pink voucher?" and she said yes, I forgot, and gave me one. So if you are only getting the skincare voucher, it doesn't hurt to politely ask if you get a pink voucher, too, as they may have forgotten, or they may give you one even if the till didn't prompt it.

Another note, how is everyone liking the Mitchum? I've been using it a week, and I've got a slight rash under my arms and wonder if it's related to mitchum? I haven't tried any other new soap, lotion, etc.

Had a fab day shopping today - like so many others on here! :j

Bought:

TS Long hair serum 1p (after mag voucher)
TS Shampoo
2 x Mitchum @ £1.65 (15p each with 1/2 price vouchers)
Time delay Wipes (free with till spit)

Paid 31p
Saved £17.46
Got 200 points with TD mag voucher
and got new till spit and £5 No7 Voucher!!!:rotfl:

Repeated that combo "a few" times!!

I am struggling to understand how you managed to get this lot for 31p!!
The TS ........ 1p with voucher
TD Wipes ........... free with voucher
2 x Mitchum ........... 31p????

If the original price is £2.65.... then the voucher takes off 50% 1.32
then the instore saving takes off 1.00
So......... £2.65 - £1.32 - £1.00 = 33p each
2x 33p plus the 1p from the TS Product should be 67p left to pay yeah?????

I know its only a couple of coppers, but how does this work?

Any takers ........... Broclo to the rescue.... LOL

For some strange reason the 50% off voucher doesn't take 50% off, it takes off £1.50 no matter what the original price of the deodorant!

Ignore me, i have got it now........... Duh!!!!

The 50% voucher takes off £1.50 yeah, so £2.65 - instore £1.00 - voucher £1.50 gives a grand total of 15p to pay............
Hooray!!!

Spent very little but got loads of freebies with the tillspits and pinkies. Also got both vouchers after just using a £5 RoC voucher as till sees it as cash.
Wombled a pair of vouchers left in a basket too I love it when that happens.
Took me ages to get out of Boots today as they kept on giving me vouchers.
