    no, because the barcodes are the same on each double glossy voucher. You need one glossy voucher and one self service tillspit voucher, and you use them together in one transaction (remember to separate both parts of the glossy voucher and scan them each individually).

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

    Nice one!

    Thank you *max*

    it has to be one glitchy No7 skincare item ie a tinted moisturiser, a bronzer, or a BB cream. Then any make-up item you like from the No7 range.

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

    Yes I did, but paid for all the items at the SS tills. :o

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

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

    Thanks for the tip off, Chris25. Will look into refuge centres in London to donate some bits. :)

    Fab, I wanted to get the same foundation yesterday, but I was scratching my head for ages trying to get the best deal, and gave up in the end.
    Will hopefully be able to pop out at lunch time :)

    Does anyone know if this deal would work?
    P&P cream - £23
    BB Cream - £6.47 (BOGOHP?)
    BB Cream - £0 (free on 3 for 2?)
    Subtotal: £29.47-SS voucher-2x glossy vouchers

    Grand total to pay: £10.47?

    yes, thats all skincare and you have glitchy skincare/make-up BB creams in there, so that would work. But it would be £29.47 - £16 in vouchers, so that would be £13.47 to pay.

    If its the PP cream that you're really interested in, you might want to swap the BB creams for the tinted moisturiser or bronzer instead, as those are cheaper, so it would go =
    P&P cream £23
    tinted moisturiser £11.50 (£5.75 on bogohp)
    tinted moisturiser free on 342
    = £28.75 - £16 in vouchers = £12.75 to pay.

    Does this still work?

    I think it will work until the end of the day tomorrow, as Wednesday is the day of the week when Boots changes its offers.
