Tried again this afternoon with 3 dry shampoos @ £1.30 each and a thining hair spray but till beeped at voucher and when SA called supervisor over she just voided the cost of the thining hair spray so I ended up paying £3.90 for the 3 dry shampoos. Has anyone succesfuly purchased a dry shampoo as part of this glitch?

Did get the 17 gwp though with a reduced eye shadow and lip gloss spend of £2.50.

so does that mean the glitch only works with specific products??

I think they might have fixed the glitch - my hair loss voucher beeped too, and I bought heat protection spray and heat protection serum, the full price of which added up to just over £5.

SA called over supervisor who then took off £6.65. No, that's not what I want!

Anyone else have any tales?

Hi MK.
I am wondering if the current ACM voucher for the free Expert Hair item
and the £5 off wyb R&M plus No7 Acm vouchers if you have them, could be used along with this £5 off from NOTW.

An example might be
Expert Hair should be £9.99 but now £6.66
2 x Expert Anti blemish/ or Anti redness £4.99 each but now 2 for £4
1 x R&M item lets say £10 (example only you may find cheaper items)
Then anything from the No7 range if you have either the £5 off or £2 off Acm vouchers! for another £9.50/ £10.00

Total should show as just over/ around £30.
First scan the newspaper voucher to get £5 off = £25 ish to pay.
Then free Expert Acm voucher = £15 ish to pay
Then £5 off R&M = £10 ish to pay
Then £5 off No7 = £5 ish to pay
If you also have the £2 off No7, it will leave you with just £3.xx to pay.

But its just an idea, so won't know if this works unless some one tries it out.

Hi jazzteddy, great list:D However, these vouchers don't usually work unless your total spend after all vouchers handed over is £30 I've had a lot of trouble with these in the past. Always worth a try though

I knew someone would come up with an excellent plan!!
Just have to hope the tills let it go through!

But i seem to remember someone saying ages ago that the till refused to accept vouchers after a certain number had been scanned?? Have i got this wrong or can someone confirm whether this has happened to them/how many people have scanned without a problem?? TIA

Thanks jazzteddy

Anyone tried the pepsi raw coupon as part of a meal deal?
I wonder if it will deduct the full cost of the drink from the £2.99?

Its a couponstar coupon, dont know if anyone has experience of how they work at all?

I bought one dry shampoo as part of the glitch and it worked fine.

A word of warning - Boots in Greenbridge Swindon, not only are the acms broken (no surprise) all of the Expert hair stuff is full price!

The manager offered to honour the voucher when I asked about the acm but I politely declined! _pale_
