    Just found this on their website:


    Buy 4 items and receive the cheapest 2 free

    Buy four items and get the cheapest two items free. Excludes the purchase or choice of: (a) charitable items and (b) Love Your Body membership. This offer is only available online at www.thebodyshop.co.uk between 12 noon on 13th August and 12 noon on 20th August 2012. Promotion can only be redeemed once in a single transaction. The promotional code must be registered at the time of purchase, by clicking on ‘use promotional code’ on the basket page.

    :eek::eek:

    Do you think this was added right from the beginning, if so good for you BS for honouring all these orders. :T

    Yes it was, someone else posted it on the first day of the glitch.

    BS could have cancelled all the orders and would have been within their rights to do so, there are other retailers who have cancelled glitch orders of far less value (joules, charles Tywhitt amongst others). Whatever BS reasons for letting the glitch run and for honouring the orders, promotion, marketing, discontinued stock etc, i'm really glad they did:)

    Yeah, they have done a good job sending all these bargains out. Was the Charles Tywhitt 'offer' the boxer shorts that were over priced to start with?

    I think the BS have probably have broken even with this offer anyway. The parcels don't cost that must to send really. The read an article recently that they pay the parcel companies about £1 a parcel.

    WELL DONE BODY SHOP AND THANK YOU OP :)

    Yes it was the overpriced boxers! The joules offer glitch was on reduced dodgy coloured tights, not only did they not honour it I didnt even get an email to tell me that they weren't sending them, despite getting a confirmation email!

    Experiences like this certainly give you a good indication of a companies customer service :)

    I think that as it has jasmine in it it has to be female. Jasmine is a very heady floral :)

    A way you could find out is search the mens items and if the box is not there it's for women :)

    Edit, had a quick look couldn't see it in men's section, but it does look & sound like it is for a man.

    Lol :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: you're as bad as me, I still couldn't resist another order this morning, of 2 lyb cards and 2 strawberry gift boxes plus free conditioner.

    I truly DO NOT need them I have placed 13 orders :eek::eek:

    I have 20 LYB cards coming :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
