Please be gentle as this is my first grabbit :)

I was in Boots at Gemini retail park yesterday and saw that the boots flight socks were in a summer offer for any 3 items marked with a sun for £15.

The socks were £12.99 a box so got 3 boxes and when I got to the till the socks went through as 342 and then they knocked off the full discount that should have made them £15 so only paid £2.01.

£12.99 X 2 = £25.98
1 packet free
discount 3 X £7.99 = £23.97

Total to Pay = £2.01:j

Hope this helps someone :j
:naughty: Save money on toiletries: no new/duplicate items until I've used up all existing supplies

    there are no little sunshine stickers on the flight socks in my local store (the 3 for £15 mentions that the items have a little sunshine sticker on them) - and as I have no use for them anyway, decided not to try the bargain glitch. Well spotted OP :).
  • No stickers in my local but I got 3 packs with 2 pairs in each for £2.01 thanks OP :beer:

    Many thanks Bunnykins for this. Worked for me in my local and I used the 10% off boots branded coupon from the points machine - this made my socks free somehow?? I also bought the 3 for 2 vitamins in the same transaction (boots branded ones) so maybe that is the key!!

    does anyone know if the other stuff in the 3 for £15 range http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CatalogSearchResultView?storeId=10052&st=specificPromo&promoName=3+for+%26%23163;15+on+selected+summer+essentials&langId=-1 is also 342. It might be worth it as I need a lot of this stuff for my holiday
