Body Shop glitch people - need your help

chanelle2

I'm only wanting to buy from the glitch if I think it's worth it, but to me worth it is if it is better or equal to any of the past glitches.

I placed an order in early August when the 50% code was on for different items and included a moisturiser. Was the 5 for 3 offer on then, or has it been on at the same time?

Actually I think it was shortly after that but the topcashback changed from 25.25 to 12.12 or something so I thought I would reorder, but by the time I got to it, the 50% code expired. I remember people ordering from body shop when the 50% code was still working. I worked out a moisturiser worth £12.50 would end up costing about £3.20.

Now if I bought 5 now with topcashback, because 3 end up being free rather than 2, does it work out better?

Arghh my brain is getting confused because I can't remember correctly what the last glitch was (I THINK it was 50% off, buy 3 get 2 free, 12.12% cashback).
This time it would be buy 2 get 3 free, 30% off, 12.12% cashback).

Please correct me if I am wrong from the last glitch as I'm sure one of you may remember. So what works out cheaper?




Also, another question, how do you end up getting the baby bath towel for free? Can you get it with the moisturisers?

The original glitch worked out as buy three for the price of one when all discounts were added up. If you buy 5 items of the same (or similar value) to take your total over £20 ie 5 £10 items, then use the codes it works out around buy 5 for the price of one. Obviously it depends on what your buying. Basically it is a better deal.

eta - the double glitch isn't coming up for me anymore, 3 for 2 and 5 for 3. Maybe not anymore then.

One of my orders should have come to £62.50 - I paid £17.50 in total after the glitch and discount code and also went via Quidco and got £4.30 cashback so this deal is better than 50% off - So in total [After cashback] i have paid £2.64 for each item which should have been £12.50!

did u get 5 body butters? i was going to miss this offer BUT i realized it was going to work out cheaper than 50% off, cos it is buy 3 get two free plus used a code for 30% off... so i paid 17.50 - 3.50(quidco) 10.50? for 5 body butters.. with the 50% it would have been £32.50 for the same.

It seems like they've removed all discount codes.

We're sorry, but the promotion code you have entered is invalid, has sold out or expired. Please enter a valid promotion code.

they seem to have caught on - I got my 5 this morning for £17.50 but was messing about with it again and it's not working anymore.

They usually don't work weekends and glitches used to get spotted on the monday morning. I hope they honour orders already placed.

Well I must be a 'body shop person' now!
Fantastic value yesterday when you could order 2 x £3.50 love hand creams and you had to pay p&p which made it to about 10.50 -BUT I got 3 x £12.50 body butters for FREE!
Looks like the hand creams that activated the glitch are now out of stock - no wonder!

I think this one has reached over 1000 degrees of heat on HUKD too so no doubt they will have been inundated with orders, which probably brought it to their attention sooner than usual. Unless of course this was an actual REAL glitch (hence it being stopped) rather than one of those accidentally on purpose smaller glitches that they seem to turn a blind eye to.
