The Essentials Aromatherpay Bliss (Orange) Gift Box definately goes through without the other two purchases is says on the ACM voucher

Today I got

Boots Mens Anti Persperant (2 x £0.99) = £1.98
4 x Mitchum (In-store Saving £1.00 = was £2.49 - now £1.49) = £5.96
Bodyform Ultra = £1.49
Essentials Extra Giftbox = £5.00
Total before deductions = £14.43

Vouchers Used
Mitchum via Virgin Radio Vouchers -£4.00
AVC Voucher EA Giftbox -£5.00
Over 60 10% discount on Boots anti-persperent -£0.20 (I'm only 39!!!)

Total to pay £5.23

Total Savings £13.20

Advantage Points Received 128
including 100 voucher for Bodyform

Unfortunately the SA used the Giftbox voucher first so wouldn't let me use the one for 100 points for spending over £10 as the first one had taken the total to under £10.

The girl seemed to have a good look at the EA Voucher and I was worried she would notice but luckily she must have "seen" the same as I did i.e. FREE and put it through anyway even though I didn't have any other EA products

Using the Mitchum vouchers in conjunction with their in-store saving means you get them for 49p each.

Hiya

Did u get 4 mitchum in one transaction and used 4 vouchers in one transaction or was all seperate??

Thanks

No they aren't targetting you, the till prints them automatically after a certain number of transactions have went through, it even prints them when I'm scanning the Healthclub signup forms through the till, so in that case I have to throw them in the bin.

Yes - I got them all in one transaction. I bought four last week too - again in one transaction

Both times I have used the vouchers the SA has had to key the numbers in as the print out isn't very clear but other than that they have accepted them no problem. I don't know if it is the way she keys the voucher in or not but the till also gives you the advantage points on the full amount before the vouchers are taken off.

Not likely. It's the same as checking your change before you leave the till as you've no proof otherwise that you didn't actually get the card.

By the way she seemed v shocked when the till spat out a leaflet after my receipt to enter into a survey online - she said random people get them and can win £1000 for entering - has anyone ever entered ?(or won !).

I got one of these on friday and entered for it. Think i remember other ppl saying they had got it too so should be fine.

Think your best chance is to phone up in case anyone noticed they had a spare giftcard when they tilled up on Saturday. I wouldn't leave it until next Saturday to mention it.

Got a great Toni & Guy Bargain yesterday. full size shampoos/conditioners reduced to £3.32. Used a 200 point voucher from the acm (my card), and a 100 point voucher from the acm (oh's card) together, so effectively £0.32 for a full size T&G shampoo.

Could only do this once in a transaction though as till only lets one of each type through at a time.
