Skibster are these the ones at reading? Do the haircare/facial/purplies work before hitting the total button? Planning on using up all my vouchers on sunday at Reading but won't bother if the haircare/skincare/no 7 voucher don't work before as there's quite a few i want to use in each transaction! TIA.

...

Yes. The haircare/facial vouchers definitely work if you scan them before hitting "finish and pay," and you can still use one other voucher at the end when you hit "coupon" without the till asking for an SA. I haven't tried the new no7 voucher yet, but I assume (and hope) it works the same as the haircare vouchers.

If you should try to do more than one voucher after you hit the "coupon" button, let me know how it works! I tried once when the SS tills were new, and it called the SA even though the coupon was totally fine and would work without beeps on a manned till. So since then, I just use one such coupon at a time, even though that may have been some setting just while the ss tills were new.

Is it possible on No 7 P&P, to spend £18+ and then receive GWP but use the £5 off P&P plus the new £5 off No7 voucher too, bringing net cost down to around £8?

My points vouchers have always gone through fine when scanned after haircare/pinkies etc. Must depend on how each stores tills are set up.

Do you mean you scan the points vouchers *before* you hit finish and pay? And are these the ACM points vouchers, or the ones you get with a gwp? That would be awesome if that works! As of now, I'll just the haircair, etc vouchers, hit finish and pay, then hit coupon and use one points voucher (as using two vouchers requires SA approval at my store).

Does anyone know if there is any other product in the s&g range that smells like the peachy cream body butter? Or the righteous butter? My mum who doesn't normally use things like this used mine yesterday and loves the smell! Like me she doesn't like the blueberry stuff though. Ive given her my mini righteous butter and am hoping to buy her some things for mothers day so if any other products in the range smell like the above 2 products could you let me know please? (does the spray smell like either of them?)

I bought that peach body butter a couple of days ago - it smells good enough to eat, doesn't it? mmm

I don't think there is anything else peachy in the range, but I would think there must be something that smells similar to the righteous butter (which I also love).

Funnily enough, I'm not keen on the smell of the blueberry stuff either, so it's just as well I had a sniff of it before deciding whether to buy.

*is off to do a sniff test*


Ooops, I've been beaten to it. Sniff test called off lol.

Hiya
Sounds like my post a few weeks ago. If you can find any reduced Herbal essence, buy buy buy (I think the 100 pts per bottle offer is still on??). Otheriwse, if you can find some reduced premium haircare, and have some ACM voucher for 100/150 WYB certain products, you may be able to gather enough points.

Or maybe buy the shaving foam from the Gillette range which is £1.46 and there are vouchers around that give you 150 pts for each one you buy.

Please let me know if you need any of these vouchers because I may be able to help you.

Thanks Skibster, am just working on oh. :rotfl: (oh how he hates boots!) I have 11 haircare vouchers to use. :eek:

Thanks for the S&G reccomendations, I have an admit it you want me set and my mum smelled it all. The calm one bubble bath and clean on me shower gel dont smell the same as the righteous butter. (to us anyway. ) My mum doesn't use hand cream or body scrub but will definetely get her to smell the spray and the i-foam. Thanks. I know they do the spray in a mini size in xmas gift sets but do they sell it with the other minis? Ive never seen it.

Hi Skibster
I meant at manned tills. I wish that worked at ss tills. (alas i tried before xmas and it did not work. )
I have 8 fab shops planned out, meaning id get £35 of points for a £25 spend plus a stack of goodies. I dont think i can spare the £25 (plus it'll be a lot of faffing with all th transactions as sunday is the only day i can get to boots) but the again i could use the points to get my mum a couple of s&g minis and a kerry katona perfume set for mothers day plus a kerry set for my birthday. Ooh decisions.

I have used 3 vouchers at SS tills, all at the end of the sale by pressing the coupon button first then scanning all 3 vouchers one after another.
Have done this quite a few times now, and never needed any SA help.
