Found last 2 cheap No7 suncare items and took them to the till with some No7 make-up and other items so as not to look too obvious but my untrained eye picked the wrong SA, she was a real jobsworth and said the till was making a mistake and shouldn't be taking so much off. She said she had put the items through in 2 transactions as they'd been told by head office that under no circumstances could they let me have 3 together!
So I just said ok I'll just leave it all and walked out!!
Did go back in a little later but they can't have put the suncare items back on the shelf as I couldn't find them anywhere.

Will just have to try again at the weekend when the Saturday staff are in!!

I have got my head around the 3 for 2, but after that i am lost. If someone expert could offer guidance please? TIA inkie

OK You will need to take 6 of these
1. Hand over six of these sets to cashier
2. Hand over 1 £16.00 Boots Parents Club Voucher

Thanks for pointing out the strips. So what exactly do they look like and ehat you meant to do with them?? Never heard of such a thing.

Hi Pingua,
The strips come on a cardboard backing - gold and blue in colour with the strips in a little green plastic case which is stuck to the cardboard.
it says on the back of the packet -
'Life can be hectic and your energy levels can become depleted. These easy to take strips are specially developed so that you can maintain your energy levels throughout the day.' You can take 4 daily and they just dissolve in your mouth. They are mint flavour.

Hope this helps, Gemma
