    Even though the 2 GWP's didn't work for me I'd suggest trying it as I really think it was more to do with me adjusting my shopping once I'd put it in the bag. I honestly expected both to go through fine, I remember a couple of years ago when the the OOTW was the No7 box and it was on 3for 2 as well. The GWP's went through then as if the boxes were full price, I got a fair few with my purchases. As you say Sandra still a good deal with just 1 GWP. After cancelling my purchase in the shop I ordered it online and picked it up from a store on my way home from work and only had to carry it a short distance. Hope DD finds it useful, there was 3 of us trying to get ready in front of the mirror in my room last night as the lights better there.


    I just wanted to report that it does work with 2 gwp's as I'm just back from the store now with mine. I also used the mailing £5 off electrical items coupon to get the mirror and 2 gwp's for £14.99. Could not get any extra points vouchers to work though, mailing or the one from the current gwp, not sure why..........

    Did you use self-service or manned tills? Thanks, just wondering whether to be brave enough to try at a normal checkout.

    Thanks rats, I was sure it would and was sure I had a problem with getting 2 as I jiggled my shopping. I ordered it online and got it for !15 with 1 GWP, a second would have been nice but I can live without it I'm sure. Well done for succeeding where I failed.

    It was sent in a mailing a few weeks ago. If you didn't receive one I don't think you can get one I'm afraid.

    I used a ss till but I think if you go to a manned till away from the electrical or no7 counters then it's worth taking the risk. I was fully prepared to plead ignorance if it didn't work. Good luck if you try :)

    I would have been happy with just 1 too but it's always worth trying. lol

    My OH got it in a mailing a couple of weeks ago. I never get the Boots mailings despite phoning and pleading with cs. They say it's random.

    Hi - just to say I see that the mirror is back in stock at the same reduced price. I just ordered one and its still giving the same GWP. HTH and was worth the bump.

    This was never worth the original price of £49.99 - I bought one last year for my daughter when it was £19.99.
