    Just wondered if the the lilac bag will go through with two suncare items or should I just buy this separately (assuming they have some left)?

    Many thanks for all the contributions. Did the 641 offer twice yesterday, mind you I was shaking when I left the store. I got a lovely young Saturday girl who didn't bat an eyelid.

    I was in Oxford Street yesterday - didn't get down there until after 5pm though. The first Boots I went into had no No7 suncare on the shelf. So I walked down to the next Boots store. They had 3 4 2 signs up on the suncare shelf. Left there and walked to the large Boots store on Oxford Street. They also had the 3 4 2 signs up on the No7 suncare shelves. I assumed the loophole had been fixed, but after reading the posts on here last night, it obviously wasn't fixed and they'd put the 3 4 2 signs up to disguise the loophole:mad: I'm disappointed I've only had a go at the 3 4 1 once. However, I'm pleased for everyone else on here who managed to get lots of 3 4 1 and even better; the 6 4 1:j I guess I have enough (that's an understatement!) toiliteries & make up. Not to mention all the Botanics stuff:D

    I had a few vouchers left so I bought the sunless tanning kit @6.50 (?) and in a seperate transaction the No7 wipes @6.25 (?). I used the 250points voucher from the bags in both transactions. Had a problem with both SA. the 1st said it wouldn't work because I was using the 5.00voucher. I told her it would work. She said I will try it and if it works I will let it go through - it did work:D
    I wasn't paying attention during the 2nd transaction and didn't realise the SA hadn't scanned the voucher - although he'd put it in the till. It was only when I'd left the shop that I remembered to look at my receipt - no points added - had to go back to SA. He said he couldn't add points to my card. He had to call the manager. I got my points in the end:D spent 2.75 received 500points.

    Does anyone know why the Oxford Street stores charge more for some of their No7 products? I'm sure in my local store the sunless tanning kit is priced at 6.00 and the wipes are 6.00. Can someone clarify? should I call CS about this?

    To clarify the Botanics offer. It does not matter how many "cheaper" Botanics products I buy, I will be able to choose a Botanics moisturiser. So in theory (not that I would) I could buy ten cheaper ones and get ten moisturisers for free? Or is there a limit?
