    yes just two bottles

    the math is

    2 x 2.59
    - 2.59 bogof
    - 2.50 vouchers (2 x £1.25
    = 9p

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    I did a shop yesterday, and rang it through as 2 transactions on the self scan, so used 2 sets of vouchers no problems (even with the Sales Assistant hovering and having to authorise the voucher at one point... he didn't even leave his little station :j

    depends on the SA again, they can refuse to take them, but if your doing a big shop its a bit harder for them to remember what you have brought
  • And if the stuff comes to just under £5 ie 2 x £2.48 bogof, then just make it up to £5 with a cheap bar of soap or something.
