For those getting cheated out of till spits, etc, there is a way to get till spits for less than 5 quid without using Mitchum vouchers (if you are tired of that or scared of getting busted). A few people have mentioned getting spits for less spend, but I don't think anyone has broken it down and so it may be going unnoticed. But I have noticed it in my shops, too, and am not sure exactly how or why it works, so I can't give a complete explanation, except to say that it does work if done as stated below.
Basically, here is what you do (all in the same transaction):
-TS glitch (can be the 1p glitch or 1.01, etc)
-use a till spit or No7 voucher to buy something (it's fine if the item is free after voucher)
-Make sure your total that you actually pay comes to over 2 pounds -- I like to toss in dove handwash, dish liquid, a snack -- something I can use and stock up on
-Wham! You qualify for both 5 quid vouchers! I have gone as low as a 2.22 spend and gotten both vouchers. I have no idea how low I could go (and really wouldn't care to go lower as I like to cover the TS glitch), or if it would work with only the TS glitch or only the till spit/no7 voucher with a 2-quid spend. What I do know is if I do both and spend a bit over 2 quid, I get both spits.
Several of us have noted that when using the TS glitch we sometimes get points as though we'd spent 3 quid more than we actually spent, so perhaps that is the key? The till thinks you spent an extra 3 quid if you do the TS glitch? So maybe you could just do the TS glitch and spend an extra 2 quid and get both spits? Like I said, I'm unsure, and have no idea if using a till spit, too, is required for this to work -- but I'm not gonna try it without using the till spit in case it doesn't work without one, lol!
The smallest amount I have spent and still received Skin care voucher and pinky is 41p.
I bought:-- Mens Time Delay item £4.79 less 10% = £4.31 (60 & over discount)
- No 7 Beauty purse 2.00 less 10% = 1.80
- No 7 Beauty purse 2.00 less 10% = 1.80
- No 7 Beauty purse 2.00 less 10% = 1.80
- TS long hair serum = 0.00
- TS Glosser Blonde = 1.01
Total to pay 41p & got pinky and skincare voucher & 212 pts.
The total even surprised me!!!:rotfl: :rotfl:~ What goes around comes around ~0 -

ikkle can you gimme i a like hun cos i dnt know my way round off the page hahaim not allowed to say what i think so ner!:p0 -
:idea: It's taken me a while, but I think I've sussed it.
Every time I visit boots, I mutter to myself about the lack of 'useful' [STRIKE]under £5[/STRIKE] things that I could get with the £5 till spit. All I've seen is stuff I won't use, so couldn't see the point.
It's now hit me that as long as it's Time Delay less than £5 and I use the 200 points voucher.....does it matter what I do with the stuff. :doh:
I've been stocking up on mitchum and managed a couple of the Trevor Sorbie serums. :T
No7 sun cream is still full pricebut I might have a look for the gloves.

This makes my £3.50 spend look like a massive overspend :rotfl:
The SA that served me was as surprised as I was pollsdolls, so I can only imagine how she'd have looked after seeing your spend
Off to bed in a sec and I imagine there'll be a new thread soon, so night polly and all and hopefully see you all in the next threadxx
