    Ok, off to Boots in my lunch hour. Here is my plan:

    Transaction 1:

    No. 7 Suncare BOGOF £7.50 each = £7.50
    Lilac Bag = £0.00
    3 x Bodyform (3 4 2) £1.42 each = £2.84

    £10.34
    MINUS £5 No. 7 Voucher, £3 Bodyform vouchers, use 250 point voucher
    =£2.34 + 250 points on AC + £5 No. 7 voucher

    Transaction 2:

    Summer pallet/organiser £9.99
    Lilac Bag £0.00
    Easy4Men Hair + Body Wash £0.00
    Returning product -£4.50

    £5.49
    MINUS £5 No. 7 voucher, use 250 points voucher, use AC Machine 50 points voucher
    =£0.49 + 300 points on AC + £5 No. 7 voucher

    Is this the best thing to do?


    I don't think you will get your £5 No7 vouchers when you have used previous ones to get money off. Bodyform vouchers don't count, I think those will. Why not get more bodyform to make total price over £15 before £5 voucher comes off, then you will get voucher even though bodyform vouchers will make it really cheap anyway?

    Hi Kylie
    you won't get another £5 no 7 voucher if you are don't spend £10 - I forgot about that last week & made total up to £10 with bodyform etc but completely forgot about £5 voucher being taken off so had only really spent £5 doh

    How much Bodyform do I need in each transaction? :confused:

    .....I'm scared, I need someone to hold my hand..... _pale_

    So I should secretly take off the bodyform vouchers before i get to the counter. This will be difficult with so many packs !! :(

    LOL. If you get 2x£7.50 BOGOF No7 items that will be £2.50 after voucher taken off - so you need another £7.50 worth of bodyform. 9 are worth just under £9 (on 3for2) so if you can get hold of 9 with vouchers on then it is best to do that. If not, 6 are worth just under £6 so you could get those and spend another £1.75ish (depends on exect price of BF) to make it over £10.

    That sounds really garbled - sorry! You basically just need to work out what it will cost once £5 voucher been deducted then make it up to £10 from there.

    I know how you feel Kylie I get in such a panic. I'm only a novice Boots Tart too. I think you could get into trouble trying to take coupons off bodyform before you buy having read others on thread. I bought 3 packs to begin with on 3 for 2 offer, then you could make up with other basics eg £5 top up on phone or tissues headache tablets etc things you would use anyway. Then use bodyform vouchers have taken off packs for 2nd transaction

    I have been buying 12 bodyform and 1 pack of No 7 wipes. Total to pay £12.36, minus £5 voucher, minus £12 bodyform vouchers. Total to pay £0.36. Points earned 49.

    If I get the 250 points voucher from the magazine, will it work on the wipes, or does it have to be makeup. I can't remember.

    The 200 (not 250) points voucher from the mag is against "any No 7 cosmetics or skincare product" so yes it would.
