    My working out is that with six you get minus £5.97
    so with 6 x 79p vits you pay £3.16 for vits and get £2.81 off other shopping
    or with 6 x £2.05 vits you would have paid £8.20 minus £5.97 equals £2.23 to pay

    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    That's right - cheapest way to do this is to get the 6 value vits & 6 energy shots (I've seen multivits and vit c in the vaule range) which gives you £2.81 off other shopping)

    Sorry Cj87 - think we had wires crossed!

    BTW, both the "Re-energizse" and the "Revitalise" in the shots work, as I accidentally picked up a combination of the 2 not realising there were more than one type.

    not a problem josie, I understand what you was saying too :)
    plus knowing the saving is £5.97 helps you work out the discount on various combinations of vitamins, and how much extra you would have to pay or how much profit you can make.
    (with thanks to gardenia too)

    I also got some of both types of the shots, I know that one is an orange flavour and the other is tropical.
  • Has anyone got this to work online?
    Every sixty seconds you spend angry, upset or mad, is a full minute of happiness you'll never get back.. :p:p
