    Hi I think that I am being abit thick!! How did you get a total of £3.40. I was thinking of getting the day and night pots of cream that are £12.50 but on the offer of 2 for £12. Would I have to top the total up to £15 to use the points voucher?
    Thanks in advance

    I used my over 60s card, it gives a 10% discount on boots own brands, which is how i got the £3.40 total as opposed to £4 it should have been.
    Because you are spending £25 before offers kick in the till is recognising the 200 points voucher. No need to spend extra. Just make sure to use the points voucher before the £4 off ones.

    Great find, unfortunately the machine isn't offering £4 off the range for me. Great if you can get it though!
