    Hi just wanted to know if I could have done any better....

    I bought
    2 x tescos own Glucosamine + Chondroitin @ £7.99 each bogof
    1 x paracetamol @ 16p to take me over £16

    I handed in
    2 x £2 off £8 spend (QK)
    3 x £1 off £4 spend (HB)

    The till refused a 4th £1 off from HB


    I ended up paying £1.15 for over £16 of vitamins

    I was delighted with this but was wondering why it refused my last voucher . Does the order that I hand the the vouchers in makes any difference.
    I plan to do an identical shop a bit later in the week and wondered if I had the best combination.

    I started taking these about 5 days ago and for anyone with stiff / painful joints they are doing a fab job for me.

    TIA

    Good day for me.
    Got 4 Colgate Toothpastes (on offer at 2 for £3) and 2 Carex Handwashes (on BOGOF). Used the following vouchers
    £2.50 H&B
    £1.00 H&B
    £1.25 Quit
    £1.25 Quit
    4 x 40p Colgate vouchers from Quit packs
    £1.00 Tesco Magazine voucher

    So I actually got paid about 22p to take the lot away :D

    Zippy x

    Strangely enough I did this combo today too!! I used £2.50 and £1.00 from H&B, 2 x £1.25 beauty, 2 x £1.25 toiletry and 4 x 40p colgate all from quit.

    Not seen the other one from the magazine so could perhaps have got another £1 off if I'd tried hard enough :rotfl:

    you have used the maximum amount - try the tesco mag one as the fourth h/b voucher this may work as its a different format to the h/b voucher booklet ones. They are on a flyer loose inside the mag.
    Thanks to everyone who posts comps :T
  • I picked up 4 mags in 2 different tescos and the H&B voucher was not in there

    Had a great day shopping today.

    got 3 r&s' but they would not give me one, so an e-mail has gone to hq

    Got macleans whitening BOGOF £2.45 50% extra free
    Simple bath stuff BOGOF £1.98
    2* Hayfever antihistamine 99p


    Managed to use £1.25 off toiletries from qiut pack
    £1.25 off beauty products from quit pack

    in essence I did not spend over £5, but with BOGOF it worked, or have the hayfever stuff knocked it over? could someone try? it would be brill if I could stock up on something that becomes an expensive essential in a few more weeks time.

    Any new on time of the month stuff?

    Plus other coupons bringing a £22 spend down to £12 so happy with that

    Boots was even better due to the double promotion
    Got 3 £5.50 body scrubs for 50p
    botanics gift set reduced to £2.50 plus free moisturiser, with a chorus of "it will never work!"
    Umberto Gianni shampoo +conditioner for 95p / 99p
    plus 2 coke and a bag of crisps for a £7.50 spend 350 points back and another voucher to spend!

    All in all a very good day, going back tomorrow to see if they have stocked up on body buffer, I am going to look fab with all these promotions!

    I think that the till will only take as many of one type of voucher, as you have bought items - so if you had bought two packs of paracetamol, it might have taken the fourth voucher. Just my little theory - it seems to be the same for the points vouchers - max of 4 if 4 items and so on.
  • has anyone tried buying allways ...bodyform with them ?

    what do you think toiletries or health care vouchers ?

    i sold my stash of bodyform that i had from the boots glitch last year :D
