    I've been Money Tipped!
    Wow, Ilovecustard, now I'm really confused and getting a headache working it out!
    I thought I did very well getting 1 BB cream and 1 Lipstick for £10.32 on BOGOF and lovely SA putting through £5 and £3 voucher at the same time. Could I have done better, though not sure about getting more than one BB cream as never used before and sensitive skin?:(
  • I think this will only work on make up that is going through at 3 for 2.

    Sorry I can't get to try it!

    I don't understand, why are we trying the bronzers now?

    Does this no longer work on the BB creams??

    I was going to go buy some today :(
    Please, confirmation if BB cream glitch is still valid today!

    yes, BB cream is still working today. I think folk are mentioning the bronzers instead because the colour of the BB creams may not suit everyone.
  • If you read back someone reported getting 3 for 2 on the bronzers.

    Sorry I don't know if BB or bronzers are still working today.

    Use self scan....you can always say you forgot something and leave it if it doesn't work.

    I bought a bronzer for £3.50 this morning using both vouchers - it's the mozaic bronzer called Perfectly Bronzed. Decided to be sensible and stop at one! Thanks to OP and MYLITTLESISTERLOLA.

    I bought the following:

    No 7 BB Crm 12.95
    No 7 BB Crm 12.95
    No 7 Perfectly Bronzed Mosaic Bronzer £11.50

    Should have cost me: £37.40

    3 for 2 offer -£11.50
    Multisave (buy one get one half price) -6.48
    No 7 voucher -5.00
    No 7 voucher -3.00
    Actually cost me: 11.42

    The lady scanned the two BB creams first and then said I should get a third one to get the 3 for 2 offer, but I urged her to scan the bronzer first "just to see" and it worked! She was really suprised by the final price and seemed really pleased for my bargain!!

    Thanks to whoever spotted this glitch originally. I'm very pleased with my bargain!!!:j
    Debt at LBM........ £11,433 (Nov 08)
    Very slowly but surely...debt now at £7,324 (Apr 13):j
  • I went to boots and was able to buy 3 for 2 Protect & Perfect serum ( should be £22 each ) then used the £5 off voucher ,so got all 3 for £39 ! result £13 each!! another trick which I missed out on ,if you pick up the boots Health & beauty Mag (Free) in the back there are vouchers for 200 points if you spend £20 on no.7 range . still pleased with this bargain :T

    Would it work if you buy 3 bronzers? I use the bronzer so this would be great.don't need another 3 BB creams lol

    right my head hurts with this glitch -

    I've scoured the Boots website, would this work (i'm trying to buy only stuff I'll use) -

    one BB cream £12.95
    one No7 bronzer £11.50 (down to £5.75 on bogohp)
    one No7 essentials day moisturiser £9 (free on 342)
    = £18.70 - £8 no7 vouchers = £10.70.

    I've got quite a few no7 £5 and £3 off vouchers I can use, but if the above works I really only need one set of them.
