Boots No 7 BB Cream Glitch

*max*

So the BOGOHP is for cosmetics I assume? If so, it should work on a mascara and a foundation, regardless of price...My mum's mascara is £12.95, so if I add a foundation (say, Beautifully matte at £12.95 also), it should work out

12.95 + 6.45 - 5 - 3 = 11.40 for the two. I'd be happy with that!

Edit: although that isn't the "glitch" as per this thread, it's just normal offer (still nice!). I can't work out what I'd have to buy to make it glitch with the products I want.

as both of those are make-up not skincare, you'd only be able to use the £3 off bit of the No7 voucher, not the £5 off (although I'd try the self-service till spit and see what happens, as thats not 2 separate vouchers, but one combined), but that would bring it down a little .
Do you or your mum have a Boots advantage card? If you do, you might find a £2 off mascara voucher in the acm machine, this also works with this deal.

Ah ok. I do have a card, so I'll try that. My head hurts...

Thanks for the original post. I went down to my local Boots today and bought the hair colourant I wanted anyway to get the No 7 vouchers. There was a very nice SA on the No7 counter who confirmed that the BB foundation were classed as skin care and was well aware of this thread.
I wanted to try the BB cream as my Loreal one that I am currently using for work has nearly run out and also wanted some new foundation for nights out etc.

I ended up having the colour match test and the SA recommended the No 7 Stay Perfect Foundation. She gave me a full makeover and took my vouchers no problem as well as the voucher for 200 extra points if you spend over £20 on No 7 products (get this at the Advantage Point machine in store prior to purchase).

So to summarise I got the following products:-

3 x BB Creams usually £12.95 each and 2 x Stay Perfect Foundations usually £14 each total £66.85 for £32.42 so less than half price and got another No 7 voucher which has been passed on to my sister.

So I am very pleased and this lot will last me well over a year!!

Are the two offers (3for2 and Buy 1 get 1 half price) still working together? I have read the whole thread and my head is hurting trying to work out how this is glitching.

If I purchase 1 x BB cream £12.95 and 1 x tinted moisturiser £11.50 , Total £18.70 (as both are on buy one get one half price). I could use both £3 off cosmetics and £5 off skincare vouchers to take it down to £10.70 but where are you all getting the third item from

both of those items are classed as skincare as well as make-up - so you can use both offers together and get a third skincare item (cheaper than £11.50 or another tinted moisturiser or an £11.50 bronzer) free on the 342.

Thank you. I hope this is still working tomorrow, if not I could easily say I have left my bank card in the machine I have been in to Boots today but have purchased too much No7 the past few weeks so gave my vouchers to someone in store. My friend has one she isn't using so I may as well give this a try

Back again...lol

If I bought 1 tinted moisturiser + 1 mascara, I'd able to use both vouchers, correct? So I would get BOGOHP and both vouchers.

12.95 + 5.75 - 5 - 3 = 10.70.

If the mascara ATM voucher also works, it should end up as 8.70 for the two. I hope I'm right this time! lol

Amazing glitch! I rushed down to my huge local Boots when I heard about double vouchers going through.

2 x BB creams (or bronzer or tinted moisturiser)
1 x No7 skincare product (price being less than other items)

Total £3.42! :T

And I did this FIVE times

I care more about the 'free skincare product'; the 2 BB creams are just a bonus to me. I rather see it as the third skincare product was reduced to £3.42. Really pleased, there were quite a few No7 skincare items I wanted to try out, and now I can. It's a really good range, usually quite pricey though, without any discounts (about £15 a product) so very happy.

Oh and I went about it all covert like. The subtle way. Just grabbed my items and headed to the self-scan to check-out, rather than alerting the sales assistant and asking for their permission or making a big fuss of things. It's quite a big glitch and I'd rather not draw any attention to myself for taking advantage of it.

Final thing is that, if your local boots is big enough, I find if you smile sweetly at the (male) employees and enquire what's the minimum spend to gain the No7 vouchers, they will typically go and get one for you, for free. (They don't care about them.) Saves you having to spend £4 each time
