Boots No 7 BB Cream Glitch

you might get more than one £2 off mascara/lipstick acm voucher - I had 4 of them :rotfl:.

You won't be able to "rinse and repeat" unless you have a glossy voucher for each transaction, so you may need to spend £4 at the manned tills more than once.

with one glossy voucher, one ss tillspit, and one £2 off mascara, you can buy a tinted moisturiser, or a bronzing pearls, or a bronzer pallette, or a BB cream, plus the mascara of your choice (check the website for the prices). If after your calculations (ie bogohp on the cheapest of the 2 items you are buying, and then £16 off with your combination of 2 glossy halves of the voucher and the ss tillspit) you will have a negative balance, just buy a conditioner or something like that, to add to your basket, to take the total over a negative balance.

Then, if you want to rinse and repeat (as you'll get another ss tillspit from your shop above) you'll need another glossy voucher too. If you have the 3 No7 vouchers, and no £2 off mascara voucher, you can still pay pennies if for example you buy a tinted moisturiser (£11.50) and mascara (£11.00) which after the bogohp and £16 off in vouchers would cost £1.

Thank you. I need to understand something though. Why does 2 glitchy items and one makeup item go so low if there is no 3 for 2 deal in there? What is the math behind it?

Can anyone confirm if the double voucher trick is working today?

Hey Hun

It's makeup so was thinking of just buying 2 of those & buying my 2 creams with the bb cream. Will nd to buy something at £4 first to get the vouchers so would that work? X

as its make-up I'd buy your mineral powder along with a bronzing pearls
= £13.50 plus bogohp on the pearls (they also count as skincare at the moment) £4.97 = £18.47 to pay. You can then use both parts of the No7 glossy voucher to get £8 off the total = £10.47 to pay.

However, as you'd get £3 off with your No7 voucher if you just bought the mineral powder on its own, you might want to do that instead.

For your moisturiser, its on 342 and to make the most of the deal and glitch, you'd want to buy 2 glitchy items (so you could do 2 bronzing pearls and your usual moisturiser). Full price most expensive item, half price on the next on bogohp, and cheapest item free. Then use both parts of your no7 voucher to get £8 off the total after discounts.
If moisturiser is what you're interested in, you might want to swap the 2 bronzing pearls for tinted moisturiser and then have the 3rd item as your normal moisturiser - the glitch works the same way.

has anyone tried 2 bronzing pearls + 1 mascara ( 342 plus bogohp?) and 200 points voucher from H&B mag? TIA

I did notice there was one mascara on the website under the 342 offers - is that specific mascara the one you were thinking of? Other mascaras don't work, the 342 doesn't kick in with the glitchy items and the other mascaras (I've tried ).

Anyone know whether if I go to manned till and buy the bronzing pearls alone and use self-service voucher so getting £8 off with no trouble whether they are prompted to give me another glossy or may they think I have only spent £1.95 net and not give it me? Got 4 self service vouchers but want to try the 3 voucher trick.

Some have got 2 bb creams and a eye pencil for 30p. How does that work if no 3for2?

That is the lash serum thing that is £22.50 I think a bit of a expensive mistake if it is wrong

I'm not sure what you mean cupofTea?

If your item is just classed as make-up, the 342 won't work, its bogohp with one glitchy item which gives the best deal, as you can use the maximum £8 (or £16) in vouchers.

If your item is just classed as skincare, its 342 with 2 glitchy items which works, because the 342 and bogohp kicks in, plus then the maximum £8 (or £16) in vouchers.

The glitchy items (BB creams, tinted moisturisers, bronzing pallettes, and bronzing pearls) are counting as both skincare and make-up, which is where the 342 and bogohp and using the maximum vouchers comes in.
