  • Okay, by the No 7 counter is a display rack with reduced items, at the bottom are some of the bags with lipsticks on, they have great little items inside and are reduced to £6.50. There were about 5 left at 5pm today. DO NOT pay at the No 7/perfume till. Go to a normal checkout and it should go through with a £5 voucher.
    I got Lee stafford Shine Head, John Frieda Serum Finish Spray and John Frieda Emergency Treatment with my hair vouchers. These are products I know are good for my hair so it was worth the few quid I spent.
    No sale items left in this store so just look out for the No 7 and haircare bargains.
    Good Luck! :T

    Thanks a lot for the reply, i didnt have a look at the No7 rack with the reduced items:( , i think they probably have gone now though as you say there were 5, the john frieda serum finish spray is £4.16 online though, did you pay extra for it but in your previous post you wrote that they were all under £2.50?...I only managed to get the john frieda Anti frizz serum which was for £3.30, the cheapest item i could find. They dont take the minatures do they?

    the self tan starter kit is classed as make up so doesnt count sorry - its the normal sun stuff that goes through (or may not concidering a few have said theyve tried today and its not working anymore - maybe they have stopped this glitch) :eek:

    Exactly right - the BOGOF apparently only applies to straight sun stuff & not self-tan (as your rightly say, they classify that as make-up!).
    I did quite a few today, combining 'BOGOF' & '3 for 2' - I did 2 x hair spritz & a nail varnish; 2 x sun shimmer & an Age Rewind foundation (also has 200 points offer from the machine + a free skincare gift); 2 x sun moisturiser & another nail varnish. So glitch must still be going through the tills OK.
    I found a nice young male SA who obviously had a life outside of Boots - yi ha!!! So also got a few Botanics link sales.
    However, in a smaller store things were very different - they'd taken all the No 7 sun care off the shelves, nearly all the Botanics, hidden the magazines & even taken the SEL's off for the hair care items that were under £4 - how pathetic can you get? They even tried to tell me the voucher offer had expired until I showed them the date on another one I had in my purse!

    If we wait until the 31st January for the new bag to come out would it go through free with
    2 - body buffers at 5.50
    1- wipes at 6.00

    total spend before any - 17.00
    this would bring it over the 15 min for a bag.
