OMG im sooo excited, think this has been the best glitch since i started bootsing this year, actually it deffo is.

Getting up early to go to 1st thing & buy as much of this as they have, but this is what i plan to get eventually, will have to go back on sat/mon too probs:

12 x £0.71 basics mouthwashes (on 3 4 2) £5.68 to pay 1200 points

then going to do this 4 times over so i will end up with:

48 bottles of basics mouthwash!! for £24.72 & 4800 points

plus iv got a £5 love 2 shop voucher so only actually need to spend £19.72 real money & mum wants an epilator from boots so she said she'd give me cash & i could buy her one with my points :T

I'm totally lost on this glitch, I cant work out where the 1200pt voucher is coming from? and why it only works in such HUGE quantities of mouthwash etc... Would somebody be so kind as to explain please???

First transaction bought:
3x basic mouthwash @71p 3 4 2
Roc face wipes@5.99 free Roc gift set
3x N17 nail polish 342 free purse
used 1.00off and 50poff N17, 5.00Roc voucher from free gift, 100p any mouthwash and 75points on a 10.00spend (this is the first time I have remembered to print this one off!)Total to pay 5.89 and received 411pionts

second transaction: 3x exp disp flossers@1.99p 342 and 1/2price (you only pay for 1 item) Roc serum@ 12.48 and free roc gift
used 5.00skincare,5.00Roc voucher. Tried using another 75points voucher but points were not added. Total paid 3.46

It's worth remembering the till thinks the 5.00 Roc voucher is cash. In the first transaction I received a 5.00 skincare voucher, but not in the second transaction, because I was short by 1.54. Still not a bad haul though.

Hi Sally, Just wondered, was the Roc 5.00 voucher in your first transaction from the free gift you were buying or from a previous gift? Just wondered if it was easy to get the voucher out of the gift and use it at the same time, if that makes sense.
Thanks

sorry have edited it - the 100 point voucher on any mouthwash from the ACM gives 100 points per mouthwash bought, including ones that are free as part of 3 4 2 (you only need to hand over 1 voucher per transaction, no matter how many you buy)

im buying so many as i want to build up my points!

Thanks! So the mouthwash glitch goes:

100points for every mouthwash bought with voucher from ACM:

342 @ 71p each £1.42 and 300 points back?

Yes, it was from the first free gift. I just opened the box and unzipped the bag and took out the voucher. Cheeky I know, but I wouldn't use the voucher at a later date, so thought I'd make use of it whlie I could.

Just a thought, if you did this in one go, you could use one of the spend £25 and get more bonus points voucher from the machine
