I would leave it and see what happens when the clocks go forward tonight

To bring back on topic.. I just realised I could have had a pamper weekend sanct bag the other day when I bought 2 skincare items, what are peoples experiences of asking CS about missed offers?

Yeah actually good idea. Oh and I think if you have still retained the receipt ring customer services and they might be able to help you out. Or if you are feeling brave go back to the store with products and a receipt.

not meaning to sound a grump but i do think they will stop the chat on this tread if people keep on breaking the forum rules with the voucher swoping etc like the last time, redfox has mentioned it a few times

The free gift when you spend over £5 on vitamins & herbs is Boots Cod Liver Oil 498mg 30 One A Day Capsules. You can combine it with the 3 42 on vitamins/ herbs .
I need to get some bach remedies anyway as I bought the new bachs capulse for when Im out and feeling ill- but my other half found them in the car and ate them all like they were sweets ! I coulnt even have any to de-stress me ![/QUOTE]

Dont forget the coupon from the green 'change 1 thing' leaflet. £3 off a £10 spend on vitamin and herbal supplements. Also, the ACM offered me 3 extra 100 points coupons for different vitamins. worth a check as they dont expire untill tuesday.
A combination of all these together could give you a bargain stash.
*free cod liver oil with £5 spend
* 3 for 2
*£3 off £10 spend
* upto 300 extra points

BE WARNED - THE 6 4 1 DOESN'T WORK JUST TRIED IT

Went to tandem centre, colliers wood, and bought 6 suncare items - 3 spf15 and 3 aftersuns, shelf said £6.00 each. BOGOF kicked in so I ended up paying £13.00 after handing over the red £5.00 off No7 items. A bit gutted, since if I had done the transaction separately, ie BOGOF I could of used 3 No 7 vouchers and just paid £1.00 for 2 bottles. But never mind, i'll either give them away to teachers for summer presents or try to flog a couple at car boot sales. I was not confident enough to say that I didn't want them at that price. Will keep a couple for me since going to Dubai in August on honeymoon. Very surprised to be given back another No 7 voucher at the end of the transaction, so I will use that on something I know I will only have to pay a little bit on. HTH someone.

Oh no, feel terrible now. I am confused though. When SA put 3 items through for me yesterday to check how much to give me on an exchange the till did 3 for 2??

can someone tell me how it works for the 6 4 1 , i cant seem to get my head round it. i keep thinking you would end up paying for 2 ??

Hi littleoldme!

It took me ages to work this out last time and it did work!!

Because No7 suncare is on BOGOF and all No7 is on buy 3 for 2 the till does not recognise only 1 offer - it takes both off.....

So if you buy 6 items around the same price (eg £6) you take 3 off for BOGOF then.... the till thinks you have done 3 for 2 twice so it takes off another 2..... leaving 1 to pay for at £6:T If you have a no 7 voucher you take off £5 which leaves a £1 to pay.

Remember your free wrap as well. I hope this makes sense.

I had to use my fingers to count it out when the promo was on last time.

I would return them with the receipt and say they were for someone else as a pressie and it turns out they can only use certain brands due to a skin allergy:p
