Thanks for this, wish I had tried it earlier. Was going to do it today.

I would think you could get the fine line and glyco for £8.xx and would need to do a separate transaction for something cheap and use the highlighter voucher.

got £10 Boots vouchers from Valued Opinions burning hole in my purse! Think I will combine with some pooeys and treat myself - well it is free money !

I do think that before asking for stuff you need to be clear what charity it is for and when the event is. The confusion over both these has caused people to be a bit suspicious and the last thing we need on here is more bad feeling! I know most people are generous in giving to charity but there is a big difference in the two causes you have mentioned and some people may have already done 'their bit' for comic relief this year as it was several weeks ago now.
Perhaps in future this kind of request could be posted on the chat thread?

Thanks elisamoose. In reality it is against the rules to make any request for sponsorship or donations to charity without permission. Copy of rule Here

Perhaps Hja, you should post the copy of your permission on the chat thread and it will end all speculation.

If you don't yet have the permission, it may be advisable to go through the proper channels.

Not everyone is aware of the site rules, so it may not have been brought to your attention before. The rules are there for everyones protection. Hth. All site rules here

"SPONSORSHIP

Site users should not ask others to sponsor them/attempt to raise money for charity from other site users. Posts without direct permission asking for sponsorship, however worthy the cause, will be removed."

Edit.......I have just seen similar post from edinburghlass

thanks for that - i did think this was the case but could not find the actual wording when I made my post and actually thought "surely if it is not allowed someone should have removed it by now"

I think the charity requests were made many times and from what I remember no post was removed.

Perhaps it's because no-one alerted a forum guide to the posts?

I was also very aware of the many messages posted, so I worked on the assumption the maybe Hja had permission. Hopefully she has and can confirm it otherwise maybe the messages may well be removed

Look out for reduced Expert Body Contour stuff to use the 250 pointers on, (it was £2.44) and the reduced Expert Mouthwash which was covered by the 150 points (at £1.50)

I got Expert Instant Soothing Cream @ £1.75 which went thru OK with 250 points to me [/QUOTE]

miss*whisper did this go automatically or did the till beeped and was added manually? One of my friends who had, initially, told me about this corrected herself as her pts had been added manually... TIA

Hi everyone tried the 3 vouchers today and was a definite NO NO NO!!! The sa tried everyway possible and i did try the way you peeps said first but i think they must of corrected it now as no matter which way the till beeped. So in the end only got the free illuminating powder and the age peel for 8.80 and wasnt even allowed something else for 342 as she said the powder was free!! Also got the s&g body butter 2.21 x2 oral pulsar brush 1.47, colgate plax mouthwash 90p, dental pick 63p, wisdom brush1.22, 17.44 to pay altogether. Reciept says i saved 18.80 so not too bad i suppose. Be suprised if anyone manages to get the magic three to go through now, but good luck to anyone who manages!!

always harrased has the bubble been well & truly burst?! I, finally, got the magic 3 and was gonna give it a try this sat...
