was there some points offer on at that time that meant he was getting more points than the price of item? didnt somepeople do that in the past with tan wipes as well?

Think...it was buy a natural collection toe seperator for 50p get 100 points? So people were buying 100 at £50.00, getting £100.00 of points...so it was a good way of 'doubling your £'s' for xmas etc. I dunno...it was 2004/5 lol

Hi guys, need a bit of help.

Today I bought

TS serum shine - £6.99
TS long hair shampoo (Blue bottle) - £4.49 i think

Handed over the mag voucher but I still had to pay £2.51

I know I've gone wrong somewhere but where???

I also bought a R&M foundation brush for £6 using the £5 pink voucher and also managed to get the 17 bronzer for free without buying any 17 products!

Mag voucher is for free TS long hair item so till deducted off the £4.49 leaving you £2.51 to pay

Total: £20.50
use pinky and 500pts voucher
New Total: £15.50
Points: 500 plus normal spend
And GWP (if you get nice no7 SA or use a diff till )

This is exactly what I did yesterday and it all goes through fine:)

Lucky you! There don't seem to be many men who understand bootsing! Fortunately I'm single, so don't have a partner to have to explain my shopping/hobby/obsession to, but a lot of our fellow bootsers seem to have problems with partners who just don't 'get' bootsing.:rolleyes:

Hi DarkAngel

see my post here (hope this link works!) http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=13426243&postcount=574

You need to make sure your long hair product is as close to £7 as poss to get the smallest final total to pay.

sorry, having a blonde moment.

So for me to get the glitch to work properly the £6.99 product has to be long hair and the second item can be any TS product?
