    I was told in Boots today that the current No7 voucher will be given out until Sunday (9 October). This is odd, as usually when a voucher expires on a Sunday as this current No7 one does, a new voucher will be given out on the Wednesday before it expires (so that would be today). It's a nice chance for a little overlap in offers sometimes, but I guess not this time. Which also means the next new voucher would be given out next Monday (10 October).

    I don't know if the SA was right or not, and as I hadn't spent 5 quid I didn't qualify for a voucher to verify what was coming out. The lady I asked was assisting at the manned tills, though, so *maybe* she got it wrong as she wasn't personally handing out vouchers today. But all the signs I saw on shelves were for a free No7 voucher, so she's probably right.

    hiya we're giving out new vouchers starting today its still a no7 £5 voucher but also a £10 eye test one as well valid until nov 9th i think xx

    So does the new no7 voucher have a different barcode from the one that was giving out until yesterday?

    If anyone has a new No7 voucher that was not given to you before yesterday (Wednesday, 5 October), could you please tell me the barcode on it?

    The barcode is different.
    The older one, given out until Tuesday (with the fragrance voucher) ends in 360147.
    The newer one, given out starting yesterday (with the £10 eye test) ends in 541584.

    The barcode shouldn't make a difference though, if you were thinking it would mean you could use 2 in one transaction?!? Unfortunately SAs wouldn't be allowed to accept them, and even if we tried I'm sure the till won't let us. There was on overlap between the Gold No 7 voucher, and the No 7/Fragrance one this time, and the till would not allow them both. (I did try for a customer just in case, although was quite glad it didn't this time as although I love people using vouchers and getting bargains, I also don't want to risk getting into trouble for doing things I shouldn't!!)

    Oh, and for anyone thinking of using the £10 eye test voucher - don't forget they are Free in Tesco!!! :D

    It must depend which order they are put through the tills in then. Because I did what you've described twice in two different stores and it worked. £10 off a foundation and £10 off a mascara. Both were human tills rather than self scan. Was very miffed when I got home and found another gold voucher in the bottom of my handbag I could have used for another buy. I'm off to Boots now to try it again with these vouchers! :-)
  • I used both the old no7 in one transaction last time, I went through a SA as we do not have SS near me, I just said to the SA my sister was allowed to do it at another store & would she try for me, she did & it worked. I got stuff that I still had to add money to. I did four seperate transactions & got 2 waterproof mascaras total renew body exfoliator & micro dermabrasion exfoliator didn't post at the time as it was the last sunday at about 3.30. Not sure if it will work this time but will try if i get a voucher.

    A month ago, when there was the last no7 voucher and the one that was given out until Tuesday that were both valid at the same time, they worked together like a charm on the SS tills. ;)

    Let us know how it goes! :)

    Oh, and also if anyone tries these vouchers on No7 Xmas giftsets, please report back.

    Anyone used the fragrance voucher?

    Do you know when the Calvin Klein offer on Eternity moments expires.....i think its down to £17.33 atm.

    And another no7 voucher - thats 3 in a row - a bit strange - we never had that many in a row!! I think i have a big stash of make up now i dont use. I think i might just buy the wipes with my vouchers now or start collecting the nail varnishes!
