thanks for that info....
i'll prob do seperately then, as they are around £1.99 and £1.69 i think....or was that when chewable vit c was half price... oh i'll decide instore i think lol :rotfl:

Glad to have helped!

If they are £1.99 each, if you were to do them in 3 separate transactions, each time using a £1 off voucher, your total spend for 3 would be £2.97. If you do 3for2 and they are £1.99, and use one £1 off voucher, your total spend would be £2.98 (so not really much difference!)

If they are £1.69 each, doing separately = £2.07 (use 3 x £1 off vouchers)
doing 3for2 = £2.38 (use 1 x £1 off voucher)

Hiya, does anyone know if there are any Max Factor boxes in Croydon Whitgift Boots or the Purley Way Boots? Been stuck at home for over a week with flu but i MUST have a MF box (or 4!!). Will venture out if I know I can find one, but am not up to my usual 4-Boots-stores-in-one-day-to-find-the-best-bargains today!

Thanks all :beer:

Okay...I shall answer my own question :rotfl:

YES!!! Boots Croydon Whitgift Centre have LOADS of MF boxes. You have to do a Mission Impossible stealth style roll, grabbing one or 2 as you fly past, without the MF SA spotting you, then pay downstairs at the photo counter. I tried to get them (one black and one red.... I had to have both, obviously) at the main tills (with Botanics wipes, 49p with voucher, and Bodyform 50p off with voucher from machine) but the SA said "you havent bought anything from MF so you cant have them" so I did the "Oh No!!! where oh where could my 2 MF eyeliners have gone?????? they must have fallen out of my basket" thing (nice tip...thanks to whoever posted that one!!!!) and payed downstairs where they havent a clue/just dont care.

Yay!!!!! to whoever posted this one.....and Yay!!!!! to me for giving it a go whilst bunged up with flu

P.S..if I am feeling brave and get anymore I will let you guys know and give them out in exchange for the P+P costs. Because I love you all :rotfl:

Does anyone know if the Mens £2.50 skincare voucher can be used for Nivea men's deodorants? Just been looking on boots.com and they seem to be on 3for2 and some for £1.99 each, meaning you could get three for £1.48...

No i tried and it wouldnt work and then she moaned that it wasnt facial skincare that i had picked up!

Think all vits are still 342. Pretty sure you can mix and match them. And there's £1 off vouchers in the COT booklet... the *squints to remember*...green one?

...or if you've got any Tesco QK vouchers, there's a £2 off £8 healthcare spend, and H&B has a £1 off £4 spend.... they can be used together.

Their is a £2 voucher in the change one thing for a spend of £10 or over but i bought 3 £3.99 kids omega 3 on 3 for 2 and still got £2 off as the till recognises the overall spend and not the after deal spend.
hope it helps

I suppose if anyone is feeling scared of the MF lady (as I am) you could always pick up £15 worth of goodies and the box and then put your MF bits back along the way round, or do you think that may look abit dodgy!!

I don't suppose any one has any vouchers for extra Boots points when you buy a pack of Huggies as I will have to stock up on nappies again soon, i'd be happy to swap for Tesco H&B vouchers or Boots mens/womens vouchers

Yesterday I got my MF box and ANOTHER FREEBIE that was at the MF stand, it was a clear small pouch with 2 nail varnishes in, I think they were free when you have a makeover, this also went through the till at 0.00
