    Mortgage-free Glee!
    went to boots yesterday my local is only small but managed to buy a few things at 75% off but I bought 2 botantics soaps{the sa put them through after moisturisers} and they charged me full price think i may have picked eye serum up instead of eye cream does this make a difference? Could I take them back and ask for a refund? 1 item was body brightening cream. Any help much appreciated. Thanks

    Make sure that you put through the cheaper items first.

    Most make-up, moisturisers, suncream etc has a picture of a little open tub on the back with a number next to it : like 24 or 12, which means the number of months that it'll last (from when it's opened?...thanks pudding!). So for eg, some of the Botanics moisturisers have a little pot and a 12 next to them so they may be better to use through the year for birthdays etc, rather than give them next Christmas, whereas some things have 36 on them, meaning they're ok for 3 years. Even so, I've used stuff in the past what it says on the back and it's seemed fine. :A

    Thanks Snow Angel and bear1

    Good job I asked - I thought the tub and number was a code for how to recycle the packaging! :embarasse

    2x body buffer @5.50 Not on BOGOF in my local store:(
    1x No7 hair spritz @5.50 Also, not on BOGOF in my store:(

    Is this because the till didn't deduct 1 off or because there were no signs up? I only ask because it worked for me today and there were no signs for the bogof at festival park store. Worth checking at the till if theres no signs up....xx

    no7 suncare range is bogof in store- this includes the cream coloured items in boxes as well as the yellow ones. (The displays local to me are only pointing out the bogof on the yellow)

    If you take any 2 of these plus any other no7 item to the till you are only charged for one because both linksaves activate ( bogof suncare & 3 for 2 any no7) Dont forget to then use a no7 £5 voucher if you have one- leaving a balance of £1-£3 depending on what you chose.

    I have been getting 3 of the pvc bags at a time as they can be given as a gift on their own.

    If you can- buy other items at the same time to try and disguise this loophole. SA yesterday couldn't believe i only had £1 to pay and rescanned the whole transaction. Today i got other stuff at the same time.

    im confused please could you explain this loophole-sorry for being a pest!
    I used a voucher today and got 2 no7 lip sunscreens for 50p-does the 3 4 2 mean i should have got 3 and still paid 50p? it was in the hanley store
    Love can tame the wildest

    Question about the 3 for 2 bags...I have a few No7 Vouchers and I am trying to figure it out..will they let you use more than one voucher when getting 3?

    Does any kind person know whether it's worth looking at any Lincs/Notts stores tomorrow? I've done Lincoln (several things on a 'sale' counter still scanning at full price)* and Nottingham Victoria Centre.

    * but I did get a Totes gift set of striped umbrella and spotty notebook for £3.75 instead of £15, and there were quite few left.
