B&Q Sandtex Masonry Paint 3 For 2

Went to buy Sandtex masonory paint 5 litre size today as 20% off in B & Q.
When i got there it was actually 3 for 2 as well.
So as its was £19.98 decided to buy 6.
So expected to be charged £19.98 x 4 less 20%.
But when i check my receipt i was charged for 6 with the credit back for 3.
So ended up effectively getting buy 1 get 1 free, then a further 20% off.
Therefore worked out at £8.99 a tin.
Happy Bunny!!

Looks like they only cost you £7.99 a tin
You say you got credit for 3, and paid for 3 (£59.94), less 20% (£11.99), = £47.95 / 3 = £7.99 per tin.
