    Just wondered how you got 3 free gifts with only a £6.01 spend:beer: Have i missed the boat now on that one?? Thanks!

    Hi doddy7,
    it works by adding 3 of the cheapest sanctuary items to your basket (salt scrub is the cheapest at £1.50)
    so £1.50 plus £1.50 plus £1.50 minus £1.50 on 3for2 = £3.00 plus £1.95 collection charge (i think) so £4.95 total (for 3 scrubs and 3 free gifts & delivery to store)
    then add three of the £10 gift sets to your basket manually and it should go through :)

    Now out of stock of most of the cheap products and the GWP is also out of stock!
    "Buy me, Lady", said the frock, "and I will make you into a BEAUTIFUL & WHOLE & COMPLETE human being".
    "Do not be silly", said the Man, "for a frock alone cannot do that".
    "True", said the Lady, "I will have the shoes and the bag as well".

    Thank you so much. I did try this earlier, thinking this might be the case but only added one GWP to basket. When I added them seperately it charged me the full £10 for it!! So must have been corrected now. Thank you anyway :)

    Hi doddy7. freddiesmum09 has already kindly answered your question and yes that is exactly what I did. I was alerted to the glitch by previous posters. I ordered 3 of the face masks £2.03 each and because 3 for 2 it came to £4.06 but then had it delivered to store to collect which is £1.95 so came to £6.01 altogether. :j I manually added the daily spa escape free gift (one at a time) to my basket and once 3 had been added the price was still £6.01. I have noticed that sometimes when you initially add the free gift or once you have added 2 free gifts manually the price goes up but as soon as you add 3 free gifts (one at a time) it goes back to the price of the items with the 3 free gifts. The gift does keep going out of stock tho so does not always let you add 1 let alone 3! Hope this helps. :)
