    (((hugs)))hazelwoods:( I know exactly how you feel hun. I spent ages trying to get the line voucher to scan on SS tills, then I went to a manned till. Still no joy. SA said it wouldn't scan because of 3 4 2, so I picked up another No7 item. The voucher beeped again:mad:I gave up in the end. Someone suggested asking the SA to type in the code. I might just try that. If it don't work, I'm giving up! I've already wasted enough time on this. I even missed my train home tonight because of that flippin' line voucher:rolleyes:

    I tried this yesterday, I bought the glyolic peel, £8.80, then 2 packs of No 7 face-wipes, £6.40 each, so 3 4 2 meant £15.20 for the 3, then the line lift, free, the voucher did beep, but the SA read the t + c and couldn't find anything which suggested there was a problem, so overrode it.
    I don't see why this should be a problem though, because you've got the 3 for 2 legitimately, and the line lift, then youre given the sub-total. so it's then you use the voucher and get the free line lift and not part of the 3 4 2, and if they don't want two offers to be used in conjunction then they should state it on the voucher.
    So, maybe it's worth trying that, buying 4 items, inc. the line lift? (I'd normally begrudge £6.40 on face wipes, but at 342 they work out the same prices as the ones i'd usually buy :o).
    Also found one pot of No.7 Age rewind (or Age refine?) day cream and one pot of night cream on clearance at £4 each. All of these were gifts for my mum so she was very pleased yesterday :)

    First time I’ve posted one of these!
    Chicken and pesto sandwich – £2.25
    Innocent smoothie – £1.85
    Raspberry cheesecake – £1.10
    (lunch – £3.99)
    No7 cocoon body balm – £12.20
    No7 cocoon body balm – £12.20
    No7 spray spf 30 – £12
    (3 for 2 – £24.40)
    No7 line lift collagen booster – £12.50
    (free for spending over £15 on no7 skincare - coupon from machine)
    Macelans white & shine reduced to clear – 64p
    No7 spray spf 15 reduced to clear – £2.90

    Normal points 120
    Doubled 120
    Point for using the bag I got free earlier this week (coupon in machine) 1
    250 points for spending over £30 in one transaction
    250 points for something to do with spending a certain amount on no7
    Total £30.93
    Points 741

    And bless her, the lovely SA tried to give me another no7 thing free because I got the free no7 line lift and the reduced sun cream and thought that should count as 3 for 2, but sadly it didn’t work. I still think I did alright though!
    :heart2: Give blood. :female: Use a mooncup.
    But ensure the two are not connected!

    Do you own this board? No .. you have just came on here in the last few days. Seems strange for you to back her up, when you have no idea who she is.


    I'm not sure why you think it's strange to for her to back someone up who may be feeling a bit upset. Most of us at some time or another back someone up and we mostly don't know each other from Adam. It's called being compassionate. Whether hja was up to something fishy or merely disorganized isn't the issue regarding your comments to molthedoll -- whatever the discussion of the moment might be, I just don't get why you'd act with rudeness and suspicion toward someone for trying to comfort another newbie who is probably feeling raked over the coals. We try not to get nasty on this thread -- that's why it's usually nice to come in here.

    I do agree with you to a certain extent and the whole board works upon trust.
    There have been disagreements before and the board got closed down, I know we all don't want that to happen again.
    The whole board works upon trust, we do not know the true identities of who is posting, you could pretend to be anyone you wanted to be. This is why the board has rules, to protect people.
    In the case of hja, people have placed their faith in her and sent her goods. Now I can understand if she got confused etc. but it does sound suspicious, and I am sorry if you are genuine that I was asking questions earlier (top of pg130).
    I tend to be suspicious of others and that is just my nature, I don't know who you are, you could be a middle aged man with a pot belly. I don't want to offend anyone and there are rules for a reason, as we have all found out.

    please do not be horrible to mollthedoll. she was only trying to back me up as she pm'd me and i told her how i was feeling.

    to be honest you can either choose to believe me or not. I'm not going to attempt to justify myself again for the 100th time.
    It actually only concerns the 4 lovely people who actually sent me stuff for the charity event. But thankyou for the people who were interested in the event and questioned about it nicely.

    i can see that trying to something nice for charity and trying to get other people involved was just not a good idea and it will not happen again.
    i apologise for requesting for items. I had not read the rules properly and i would have been much grateful if someone did report the post so i would have been set on the right path.

    this will be the last post i will be posting regarding this issue as the whole thing has got me quite annoyed and upset and talking about it more will just get me more upset.
