    they always check points when i go - just to check you've got them all (one sa said!) they didn't check money off last week though - had £1.50 off huggies nappies & for some reason it only took 66p! queried & she gave me £1.50 cash back, meaning i actually had £2.16 off! love the photo kiosks!

    Does anyone know if I were to pay for the EI stuff with points would I get all the points added onto my total or only with a cash spend?

    If you pay using the points on your card, you won't get all of those lovely extra points. You need to pay with cash to get points.

    I've lost track of this thread a little and have tried backtracking through the page but ama still stuck.
    Can someone please tell me where the £5 skincare voucher comes from?

    Hi Dragonfly, you get the voucher when you spend over £10.00, it's divided in half, one a £5.00 skincare voucher, the other half for chocs at 99p.

  • oh i see, thank you.
    Is that £10 after reductions so your final price must be £10?

    How about paying with a pigsback Boots voucher? would that count as cash?

    If you pay with vouchers, then they are considered cash, so yes you should get your points that way.
  • Yesterday bought :

    4 x Lynx Shower gel £4 ( reduced from £1.99 each )
    3 x FCUK body spray / shower gel £5.25 ( reduced from £3.50 each )
    3 x Ts Glosser £3 ( from about £4 each )
    2 X Hair Science £1.99 (BOGOF)

    Wasn't sure if FCUK was in Spend £10 save £4 promotion, so had Hackett Body Spray (£3.50 ) in reserve. Bought it anyway, because still couldn't see discount when items had gone through. Is this meant to be on ALL mens toiletries I wonder?

    Anyway, really couldn't work out my receipt.

    I had 100 point vouchers for TS, fcuk, Hair Science and Hackett. Till bleeped after one of each had gone through, and I said ' but I'm buying more than one', but SA said one only. Anyway got 700 coupon points and 19 normal points.

    So, -
    Seems like you only have to give one coupon, for example for FCUK and it gives you 100 points per item. I know this works on Ei, but I don't think I've seen it work on anything else before. Would actually be excellent for those coupons that ' disappear' once you print them, and also feels better at the till not passing over tons of coupons.
    No idea how I only got 19 normal points, instead of 55? on a spend of £13.74. Also think she may have missed one, I probably could have bought something else to take over £15 and got 100 total spend points.

    Anyway, bag full of stuff for a net of less than £7! ( + Lindt and skincare vouchers! ).

    May try today for remaining TS glosser -
    10 x £1 = £10
    less £4 toiletry discount = £6.
    100 points coupon x 10 = 1000 points + normal = 24.
    Therefore £10.24 points for £6 spend and more hair glosser than I could ever need!!

    Yes, you need to actually pay £10.00 or more after all reductions/offers.

    Remember men's toiletries are spend £10.00 get £4.00 off, and this can be combined with AC machine vouchers. Yesterday it also worked on some of the reduced products in the FCUK range (not giftsets), and I got the points!

    Also if you get the EI voucher you get 150 points per product with just one voucher, even the free ones (range on BOGOF at the moment), so handwash that costs £1.66 is BOGOF and you get 300 points. :D

    If you're aiming for a no 7 bag, remember that no 7 suncare is also BOGOF at the mo, and the AC machine is giving out vouchers for no 7 nail polish. (I got a nail polish at £6.00, and some exfoliator/scrub stuff - 2 at £5.50 BOGOF, and two sun skin care bags at £5.50 BOGOF - all so that DD1 could have the bag!
