    spend £4 or more and use the self service till to pay. With your receipt you will get a separate No7 voucher from the self service till. This is the tillspit voucher.

    My day is made! :D

    I first got a mascara + a tinted moisturiser for £8.70 with a SS till voucher and received another voucher. I needed a couple of things so paid for those at a manned till and got a shiny voucher.

    I then got another round of mascara + tinted moisturiser, I used both SS and shiny vouchers and paid £0.70! My heart was doing saumersaults...lol

    I could have got the first lot for 70p too, but I'm happy with what I got anyway! :T My mum is going to be very happy!

    Edit: I also used the £2 off a mascara voucher from the ACM, twice!

    how did you get the mascara and tinted moisturiser for .70p ? i am going to boots today to try this

    Thanks everyone. Yesterday I bought:

    Stay perfect foundation - £14
    BB cream - £6.47 (was £12.95)
    Total paid after discounts - £4.47

    P&P day cream- £22
    P&P night cream - £23
    Spot corrector - £0 (3 for 2 offer)
    Total paid after discounts - £35

    I realise I could have saved more money if I bought 1x P&P cream and 2x BB creams, but I didn't want to end up with loads of BB creams and not use them.

    Will be trying the lipgloss and nail varnish offer at some point this week :)

    Did you use 2 sets of vouchers - glossy & self service till split?

    Women's refuge centres are always grateful for unused & unwanted make-up & toiletries.

    These glitches (especially Boots) that regularly come up are so useful :)

    I used both a manned till voucher (the glossy ones) and a self-service till voucher in one transaction. They both come off!

    So: 12.95 (mascara) + 5.75 (BOGOHP tinted moisturiser) - 5 - 3 - 5 - 3 - 2 (ACM £2 off any mascara voucher). = 0.70!

    I used a self-service till for this, I was quacking in my boots...but it all went through fine! :D

    So 1 make up item and 1 skincare item works with all 4 vouchers??

    Nice one!

    Thank you *max*
