    no7 highlight (free with acm voucher)
    and a s&g product (use £2 off voucher)
    A no 7 nail varnish (free but use purkie too)

    The only "good" ACM voucher I got was for the free high lights. I asked at the No7 counter, and was told those had been discontinued and they didn't know why vouchers were being offered on them (I do -- lots of stores have them left and it will encourage people to buy something in order to get a "freebie" which is actually something they want to get rid of! Not to mention that I think these are the things we got last year for free with a mag voucher, and they weren't too impressive expect that they help you get other deals like 342, lol). Anyhow, my store had none left.

    I also asked about the no7 spring blossom lip gloss stuff that was half price online. Was told those had been saved back for the sale in June!

    I noticed some SAs grabbing armfuls of items from a back wall, and sure enough there were a lot of Amazon items on clearance. Well, actually there were just a lot of empty shelves behind clearance SELs. They had Amazon Forest skin treats toiletry bags for about 3.87, some body washes for 98p and body butters for about 1.84.

    I noticed that Dove aerosal deodorants were 1/3 off. The sign specifically said that this did not include the hair-minimizing ones, and I'm not sure if it included the regular roll on Dove. Which is a bummer because I would've bought the hair minimizing stuff last week when it was 2 quid and tried to use my two different 50p vouchers on it, but someone posted that dove would be half off this week so I waited. Ah well, you can't win them all.

    Oh, also tried to get the free 17 nail polish with purchase of a 17 clearance item. It didn't work (and the SA did scan the actual item barcode so the till knew it was a 17 item).

    What time did everyone try and use the eye voucher and it did not work?
    My receipt from the SS tills says 11.10. Just wondering if the people that could not get this to go through went earlier than me?
    Had no problems at all as all the vouchers scanned - and no did not use a perkie! Says on receipt total saving £41.50. Think may not have been this much if the till hadn't gave me back £1.20! lol.
    Hope others get it to work.

    My dismall failure happened at 1pm.

    Maybe its the other way round?? You did yours early enough before Mr B became aware of possible glitchiness:confused:, and to try and stop us taking advantage of multiple vouchers he has broken the tills :confused::rolleyes:

    You are definately this weeks top Bootser though BBB :T

    That ruins my theory then because didnt your highlighter discount have to be deducted manually?? But you did your transaction before BBB successfully did theirs.
    :confused::confused::confused: All a bit confusing, I wonder if BBB just has very good SS tills :D
