Huge Glitch Over 60s P & P Boots!!

Thanks to RootedNomad for posting that P & P Intense Body was reduced to £17 online, and 3 for 2. Go instore, and if you are over 60, you can get 3 tubes, worth £81 for (drum roll) ............ £14.08!!!!! :j :j :j

The till first lists that it is £27, and that on 3 for 2, it is £54. I presented my £5 coupon, and it reduced to £49.00, and it took 10% off £49 giving a deduction of £4.92 (don't know where the other 2p came from, but who cares!).

The till then deducted a further £10 for each tube (£30), resulting in a balance to pay of £14.08 - and I got a £5 voucher off the L'Oreal stuff, and I paid in 250 points from a gift set! :T :T :T

I got 2 lots of these, so £162 worth of stuff for £28.16, and a fivers worth of points added on!!

    Does this mean that it would be £19.xx for 3 for those not over 60? Has anyone tried?

    Here's the link to that thread. There's opposing views. Some people can't get the £10 off instore.

    I did mine at the No 7 counter (twice). The lady after me wasn't over 60, but also had the £5 voucher and paid £19 - HTH.

    Thanks. Almost spent my £5 voucher on one of the new Spring collection items today, think I will give the 3 x P & P Intense body serum glitch a try tomorrow. Fingers crossed it will work, I only have 20 years worth of body lotion left at the moment :rotfl::rotfl:

    My friend has just phoned from Bluewater, saying it didn't work on the SS till, but did on the manned till - usually the other way round. I didn't go for the 75% sale instore, and only bought a few bits online, but will be buying another 6 x P & P tomorrow. For £56, I'll have 8 lovely gifts - and 4 for me, or perhaps 4 lovely gifts and 8 for me!!

  • Quick - back in stock online - 3 x P & P for £24 delivered to store.

    Thanks for testing this out Sandra. I can't get the online shop to show the 10% off for me. It shows it sometimes, yet is selective when it will give it to me. I asked on another thread about the vouchers and it only appears to work with some.
    SEE HERE. Typical Boots can't make its mind up.

    Well done for getting it at that price though. :T :TWish I had managed to get there today now :(
