    my attempt worked fine today! 6 of the no fragrance essentials wipes for £3.97.

    Should have been £6 on the 3 for £3 deal.

    Thanks!!

    Went back in today, noooo problems!! This SA didn't even look confused. Another trip tomorrow me thinks.

    Sadly we don't have any self service checkouts in our one, but in Reading, where I work, they do, so may have to make a trip next week too.

    It excludes everything but creams, I asked the other day if two things were OK to use with it (things from the ranges listed which would work out free) and got a very snotty SA who said it was just the creams. The creams work out at another £5 spend, or more so I suppose it depends on whether you use that cream :o

    Have you done this? If its worked for you I think I will go and try it in a bigger Boots near me as they only had six in my local so I got them all, looked crazed clearing the shelf :rotfl:

    The SA at my store spent a couple of minutes trying to work out why it had come up at that price, luckily she gave in and let me have them. Definitely going to have to go back for more.
