    Your total is £15.69. If you take off your £4.67 delivery you have in fact paid £11.02 for 4 items making each item roughly £2.76.
    I don't know what makes you think you paid £2.17 for 2 sets?

    Because it said next to each item QTY 2: £2.17 as shown in the breakdown I put above. That is probably without the VAT though as the VAT is added seperately by the total.

    No matter what I still got 4 sets for £15.69. I was just responding to Tara who asked how I managed to get 4 sets for that price :)

    I was just trying to figure this out, and realised if you refresh the order page with 1/2 packs in it then it says '£2.55£2.17' under price....then changes to £2.55, its odd...but as you say prob just VAT added :)

    I would try pressing back a couple times. Or close the page and start a new page up. The contents should still be in your basket as it was for me yesterday when i accidently closed the page whilst going through checkout.

    Good luck it really is a bargain and i am still debating whether to buy more! :o

    UPS delivered mine this morning. I only chose the saver delivery and it came next day! Check your emails for your order confirmation just incase. They do also send you a despatch and tracking email too.

    Many thanks for letting us know as I was a little bit worried what we were going to get :) as the offer is so good and I always think when I see such bargain that it's too good to be true. Now I can sleep well and I will just wait for my sets to be delivered. I ordered ultimate sets for myself, mum and sister (they don't know about the sets yet). :j

    Thank you OP, great find!!
  • Ordered with Supersaver delivery yesterday and they arrived this morning!

    1 x 250 ml colour care cleansing shampoo
    2 x 250 ml colour care conditioner
    1 x 150 ml daily colour protector
    1 x 75 ml nourishing shine shampoo
    1 x 75 ml colour care conditioner

    2 x 250 ml ultimate shine shampoo
    2 x 250 ml ultimate shine conditioner
    2 x 75 ml ultimate shine conditioner
    1 x 150 ml detangling leave-in conditioner

    1 x 250 ml blonde highlight reflective shampoo
    1 x 250 ml blonde highlight reflective conditioner
    2 x 150 ml ultimate gloss mist
    1 x 75 ml beautiful blonde shine and control spray
    1 x 75 ml beautiful blonde straightening balm

    First two sets are a fantastic bargain; blonde one is not quite so fantastic if you just bought this and added in postage. Also in the blonde set the 2 x 150 ml ultimate gloss mist, seem to be two separate clear liquids (third of top of bottle). This may be normal and next time I am in Boots I will take a look. If I had ordered three blonde sets I would be disappointed, but overall feel delighted with my bargain, particularly the first two sets!
    Thanks for the tip.
