Nope, last time the suncare worked on its own 6 4 1, I bought loads, suncare was on 3 4 2 and bogof at the same time hence the glitch. You could add 1 skincare and take off a suncare if you wanted a skincare item. This worked because the skincare was on 3 4 2, so 3 items 3 4 2 overall and then the suncare cancelled themselves out because they were bogof.

That right Flo !
Im wrong the 6 41 does work but there is also the glitch of 5 suncare and one skincare.
SORRY bedshaped I remember now - both offers work but the last time I used it mostly to get the free bags which they might sell some wraps off again.
So I bought 5 suncare and 1 bag and paid the 50p.

So people have the option the 6 4 1 on the suncare or the 5 suncare & one beauty item ( including the reduced electrical ) .
However I do remember it was easy to make a mistake the last time as I remember being overcharged .
But if the shops have the items reduced below £6 - which my local does then the items will be free with a voucher.

someone mentioned that the new rimmel nail polish was going to be instore maybe tomorrow. I would be grateful forever and ever if someone was going tomorrow and was going to check them out anyway, could you possibly see if they have a black/dark grey colour available. my sister has been looking for a cheap version for a while. I have had a look online but the colours always look different.

thank you to anyone who remembers!

No need to wait, I've done it today. 6 x £6 suncare items - total £6 minus £5 no7 voucher = £1 cash to pay

OK this is how I worked it out last time the glitch was on..

6-4-1

No7 suncare item £6
No7 suncare item £6 (free on BOGOF) therefore - £6
No7 suncare item £6 (free on 3 for 2) therefore - £6
No7 suncare item £6 (free on BOGOF) therefore - £6
No7 suncare item £6
No7 suncare item £6 (free on BOGOF & free on 3for2) therefore - £6 and - another £6

Total to pay £36 (6x £6) minus £30 (5 x £6 - 3 x BOGOF discounts and 2 x 3for2 discounts) leaving £6 to pay.

6-4-2

No7 Suncare item £6
No7 Suncare item £6 (free on BOGOF) therefore - £6
No7 Suncare item £6 (free on 3for2) therefore - £6
No7 Suncare item £6 (free on BOGOF) therefore - £6
No7 Suncare item £6
No7 wipes £6.25 (free on 3 for 2) therefore - £6.25 (no additional BOGOF discount on this like you would get if the 6th item was suncare)

Total to pay £36.25 (5 x £6 plus 1 x £6.25) minus £24.25 (2x BOGOF and 2x 3for2) leaving £12 to pay.

Hope thats easier for everyone to understand how it works.

I think the glitch Cat72 means is this..

3-4-1

No7 Suncare item £6
No7 Suncare item £6 (free on BOGOF) - £6
No7 wipes £6.25 (free on 3for2) - £6.25

Leaving £6 to pay.

This last one is probably the better option for the more fainthearted of us bootsers who don't fancy trying a 6-4-1 & don't forget you can use £5 no7 vouchers to take £5 off these totals too

lol!! i love you really, i just dont want any suncare but then when you tell me how cheap it is i have to go and buy it!! you know what i mean.

find some glitches on chocolate and you will have my undying love forever!:j

there's a thought. If you find enough glitches on chocolate there will be more of you to cover with suncare and you'll get through it quicker :rotfl:

Problem solved!

No need to thank me, just send choc;)

Boots Bluewater - no sign of sanctuary bags or vouchers. No actual sanctuary stand that I could see, just it's own little section with the other skincare ranges.

Got my freebie skin polisher and £3 off the eye gel stuff.

Poor me!!!

I was so busy today. So didn't have time to go to boots. Actually, planned to shop after lunch break (2-3 pm). Then, my plan was cancelled by an urgent meeting. Afterthat, was busy until 6.30 pm. So no time to go to boots before my store closed.

I got 750 points of 2 clinics which is valid till today only. So pity on myself. Wanted to stock up some SS weekend bag as my store still have more than 6 left on Sunday. Wanted to try 641, but lost my chance now. So sad.

Do you think whether the clinic voucher will scan after its valid by date gone?

Sorry to hear about your awful experience zztopgirl. I hope you get a satisfactory resolution.

Has anyone used a £5 No 7 voucher towards the Stay Perfect Lip Lacquer and managed to combine it with the 150 extra points voucher from the AC magazine? :think:

Am thinking of trying this tomorrow.

Yeah ive done it twice it goes through fine.
