    Couldn't fit anymore on that post!

    Just wanted to say not to get the sunless tanning starter kit as your other suncare item (if you are buying make-up as your third item) as it doesn't work on the BOGOF offer only the 3 for 2; so fine if you are buying 3 suncare products. Hope that makes sense!!

    Will read back now but did anyone manage to get 6 suncare items for the price of one?

    The sunless tanning starter kits are on 3 4 2, instead of BOGOF. Check out which No 7 suncare items are on which offers at Boots.com, as there are a few more anomalies.

    You need 2 x No. 7 suncare items which are on BOGOF, (no signs stating this at my local Boots though), and 1 other No. 7 item which will be your 3 4 2 product.

    I got the 6for1 deal today. It does Work:T
  • I managed the 6 for 1 earlier and a few other posters did too. At the moment there is a question as to wether the glitch has been fixed after a jobsworth sa claimed to have rang head office.

    can somebody who got the 6 for 1 glitch to work please report how many suncare items they had to 'buy' to get it to work? Did you get all 6 suncare items or 4 suncare products and 2 others? Thanks

    I didn't try this myself, but I have been reading this thread all day (except the part where I had to do an exam, after which I rewarded myself with a trip to Boots!) and as far as I can tell, you have to buy 6 suncare items.

    Also complained to Customer Services as I didn't get vouchers on Monday when I bought £5 worth of sale stuff - and they've credited 800 points onto my card - wohooo!!! I LOVE Boots!!!!!!!! :D
    Lucky You. I can't understand why Boots doeasnt love me :rolleyes: I reported that I didn't receive 4 £5+£3vouchers and firstly she said that I didn't spent required amount - £10 so that's why I didn't get them. I respond that you need to buy only £5 and I've got mailing from Boots stating this. Then she said that... the store was out of vouchers :eek: :eek: :eek: Ridiculous, it was only 3rd or 5th day when they were given, and they still do. She gave me 50 points as a "kind" gesture. I was shy enought to dispute with her, that 4 x (5+3)= £32, and 50p doesn't smell like "kind" :rolleyes:

    Do you think I should call / write them again? :rolleyes:
