    Hi, does it make a difference what order you scan the items through? TIA.

    I scanned the vitamins first, but I don't think it matters what order you scan the items. The till works it all out:)

    I wonder if, as the till sees the shots as vitamin products, and there are two different types, if you buy 3 of each one and no vitamins at all, if it'd still work?

    I'm not brave enough to try it lol

    i was going to try that today but forgot, pretty sure it will still work as it is classed as a vitamin but in terms of discount im not sure how much it would take off i think it could take even more money off though, fingers crossed i'll try tomorrow hopefully
    Take care of the pence and the pounds will take care of themselves :)

    I got 3 lots of shots and 3 lots of a-z vitamins at £2.39 each - total to pay was £2.79 paid with points :D, went back and did it again - the girl on the till was amazed and said she may get some.

    Maybe £3.98? Lol, that would be nice, maybe I'll try tomo if it's quiet by the self scans :)

    I bought in 6's today (6 x multivits/vitc @ 79p each, 6 x shots) and was amazed that more came off. Nearly had a heart attack as added a pack of No. 7 wipes to use my voucher on and total came to £4.19 (so -81p after voucher). Hastily stuck two creme eggs into each basket but the guy on the till was initially hellbent on working it out. let the first basket through but on the second, pressed bell, called for help but luckily for me, supervisor was upstairs and the queue was long. He mumbled I've lost interest, that's 19p please and I grabbed and ran. In the first shop I went to the till lady wouldn't even scan all the products as said I couldn't have the free drink for the third lot of vitamins as they were free on the 3 for 2. Didn't argue, just said I'll leave it then and walked out. Much as I love this glitch, I think that's me done now. nerves can't stand it anymore although I did get two more No.7 vouchers today.............
