Boots sanctuary glitch. 3 for 2 plus free gift for every £10 you spend

freddiesmum09

Ok this is going to get complicated to explain, basically boots are offering 3 for 2 on all these products:

http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CatalogSearchResultView?storeId=10052&st=specificPromo&promoName=3+for+2+Mix+%26%2338%3B+Match+across+selected+skincare%26%2344%3B+hand+%26%2338%3B+body%26%2344%3B+self+tan%26%2344%3B+indulgent+bathing%26%2344%3B+No7+%26%2338%3B+vitamins+%26%2345%3B+cheapest+free&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

The offer includes lots (if not all?!) the sanctuary products boots sells which are here:

The glitch is that as well as getting 3 for 2 on sanctuary products, you also get a free gift for each £10 you spend BEFORE discount comes off.

To put it simply. Buy 3 sanctuary body butters, £10 each, and you end up paying £20, but you recieve 3 free gifts (automatically added to your basket) as the free gifts are based on the original price you pay before 3 for 2 is taken into account. The free gifts are selling for £10 each on there own, and although they are not worth that, they may still come in useful for pressies/mothers day etc.

HTH someone, love sanctuary products but they are expensive so a glitch is always nice.

Remember free store pick up for orders over £20, quidco or tcb, plus advantage card points :j

says generic error for me and won't let me pay!!

I'm tempted but do you think you'll actually get all 3 free gifts?

juliebunny

There seems to be different free gifts too - it gave me a bubble bath free that I added to my basket and a gift set too. Hmm, wonder how this could work with multiples of 2x3.....! Not that I need anything...I never realised how expensive Sanctuary is, having only every bought Christmas sets and that was in the sales!

Edit - sorry think the bubble bath was my 3 for 2 item.

Getting same error message so guess they fixing it. Not that I was going to order, only trying it out ha ha.

Well if they don't include one I am going to complain as its false advertising lol, mind you they probbaly have some stupid loop hole, whilst stocks last etc... I have only brought stuff I would buy on 3 for 2 anyway.. my email confirming the order came through fine with all the freebies included so looks hopeful!
