coraastbury - is it possible you could explain further how you did this and what mutiples of which vouchers you gave in? Did you take them to a 'manned' till or go through self-serve? (I'm trying to plan a strategy for using up my vouchers and wondering which is the best way).

Isn't this addictive, its giving me a right buzz.

Hi, I get it so that it is just over £10 without taking off the bogoffs so that then brings it down to around £5 with bogoff. I hand in £2.50 voucher, the £1 off £4 H&B and the £1 off £4 "treats voucher" which is in our store at the mo. Also in this lot is 5 x 50 point vouchers and if you put them so they go through together you get all the points, if not it will only scan 3 x 50 points.

Anyway this should bring your shopping to under £1 with up to 250 points.

I usually do two shops at one time saying that I am shopping for someone else too.

I only use the manned tills as we haven't got self scan yet.

You are right it is addictive!!

Hope that helps.

Thanks for that Cora.

Sorry but you clarify further on this point, I'm not quite getting what you mean?

(Also in this lot is 5 x 50 point vouchers and if you put them so they go through together you get all the points, if not it will only scan 3 x 50 points)

And (sorry about this ) do you just buy the toiletries in each separate shop or do you buy other groceries at the same time (i.e to 'bulk' it up)?

Thanks

Sorry Cheekylittlemonkey. The points one, you need to hand the vouchers over all together with nothing in between them, i.e. a money off voucher or it will not accept all 5 and will only accept 3 of them. So I usually give them in in this order £2.50 voucher, 5 x 50 points vouchers, £1 voucher, £1 voucher. This should then get you 250 points plus the normal shop points (unless you get a jobsworthy who will notice and will only take one voucher for the points)

I have just bought the toiletries and nothing else and it has been fine. The thing is that you have bought the products that the vouchers are for so you are doing nothing wrong.

I have just been on the website to see what else is on bogoff and might go down again when dd wakes from her nap!!!

Hope I have explained myself, I am no good at making myself clear.
