Thanks for clearing that up for me - so if I bought the stay perfect compact on its own, without the 342, it would have been okay with a perkie? Its the 342 thats mucking things up then .

If it is a reduced stay perfect I don't think they work with perkies
You can do 342 as long as the cheapest item is not the only full price item

ie I did £4.89 key fob
£5.45 No7 pore refine
£5.45 pore refine

Key fob was free as cheapest so perkie was not accepted on the 2 reduced pore refines

but then I changed the key fob for a mens No7 so

Mens No7 £6.30
£5.45 pore refine
£5.45 pore refine

a pore refine was the cheapest item so perkie could be used as still a full priced item was left to pay for to redeem perkie

Hope this makes sense

Yes, it does Amelias Mummy.
But then what doesn't make sense to me is other posters who've bought the reduced Spring Pallettes, and the reduced lip lacquers on 342 etc with perkies .

I think some of the reduced items do work with a perkie, the creams I tried yesterday definately did not work and the reduced foundations don't either

Managed to spend my very last perkie earlier, don't know whether to cheer or cry!! ACM didn't give me any No 7 offers, though, so a big BOOOOOO to Mr B!! Had to spend my perkie before I fly off on my hols, so decided to buy another

3 No 7 Lip Lacquers @ £4.75 (& 342)

but, just incase the SA decided to be awkward about the use of a Perkie with these alone, decided to disguise this with a couple of bargains off the clearance shelves - grabbed the last two "Essential Aromatherapy" gift sets priced at £3.60 - similar to the £9.79 gift sets on .com

So I spent a grand total of £11.70, after the perkie & earned another poohey! Can't complain, cos that was, in effect, almost £50-worth at full price. I've bought 6 x lip lacquers in two days & spent about £10 in total on them, so thats saved me almost £50, when its £9.50 each at full price.

Hope you all get plenty of glitches whilst I'm away - someone please PM me with any brilliant bargains, as it'll take me another 2 weeks to catch up with everything when I'm back! Leave some for me, please!!

But doesn't that mean that you lost out on another item that could have been free? The vichy set goes through as free anyway so you could have had 3 other items (one of which would have been free. Forgive me if I've got it wrong. :rolleyes:

Edit - just reread your post and realised you got the 342 on no7 and the vichy set. doh :embarasse

Haven't got time to read thru @ the mo (have to do some catching up since last nite) so don't know if it's been posted but the 'Highlights Voucher' apparently has stopped beeping @ the tills!!!:T Used my last one 2day (will post my shop later) and it went thru with NO beeps @ a manned till AND also on 342!!:T :T This when I used it on thurs @ the same store and it continuously beeped...

Also the new £2 vouchers r going thru with NO beeps on the following Bourjois items:

Tweezers 93p after the voucher;
Nail File 93p after voucher;
Pencil Shapners FREE after voucher;

HTHS...

Can i just add that the Bourjois Nail Polish Remover also works with the voucher and only 44p to pay after voucher.

Has anyone tried yet, to see if the 17 free nail polish goes through with no beeps when you buy the 17 make-up remover wipes? These are 99p, so would appear to be the cheapest full price thing to buy on the 17 stand to get the nail polish.

I didn't try, as I was already a bit irritated with the No7 342 fiasco I'd just had on the SS tills.

Yes, i have read on here (cant find post now) that this combination does work, i went into store today to try this as i really like these wipes, but none in stock..:mad:
