    no - one brush and one bronzing pearls only for the maximum money off with the £16 in vouchers if its the body brush you are really after. Its classed as make-up so you can't use it to give you any 342 on skincare.

    You could add more glitchy stuff and make it 3 glitchy items and your body brush in one transaction - but you'll be paying more money out. Kadison over to you, I can't get my head around what comes off if you buy say 3 glitchy bronzing balls and a body brush?

    Lol!

    Body brush is £11, bronzing pearls are £9.95

    Total is £40.85
    You get one 3 for 2 and two BOGOHPs, essentially 2 x bronzing pearls are free, so total before vouchers is £20.95, so after vouchers you SHOULD pay £4.95.

    Was this on its own or with a glossy? I really can't understand how the SAs won't put through both parts of a glossy yet will put through a tillspit which automatically gives both the £5 and £3 discounts. That doesn't make sense unless they then override it?

    And I do believe that Boots could easily change their systems to prevent the glitches from working so generously - the fact that they don't speaks volumes about how little harm they do to their profit line.

    No, the strange thing was she put both glossy vouchers through it was the till spit that she wouldn't take, hmmm not convinced she wasn't just bring a jobs worth!!
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

    Big thanks to Kadison for her help in the wee small hours.
    Couldn't find any ss at st pancras so decided to go to Oxford Street on way home from Gallery. Used phone sat nav for nearest Boots which it said was 285 oxford street.
    This store no longer exisits so turned round and walked up ti 151. Lovely Boots.
    Luckily mum wanted some insoles so that was our first purchase to get ss till spit. Male sa by ss tills who left us well alone.
    Armed with my first ss till spit we then went back downstairs to no 7 counter. Lovely sa asked if we were just 'browsing and said she would leave us to it. Did not think to ask for gwp. 3 x bb and 1 foundation. Back upstairs to ss tills. Used ss till spit and both parts of glossy and £8.39 to pay.
    Then bought 3 bronzing pallets using both vouchers and ss till spit and paid £1.25

    Not to self could probably done better but savings of £73.66 so happy enough.

    Had spent ages last night putting lists into phone but got to boots and had not saved list.

    Wombled a couple of ss till spits and hoping to go up to Bluewater or lakeside next week as have return for ikea.

    Like the idea of a few bronzing brushes to make up xmas presents so will start to look into that area.
    Can't wear no 7 myself as delicate skin and use clinque only but daughter is an airline cabin manager and as she has just gone back to work after having baby funds are low so want to stock her up a bit .

    Big thanks for all your help hopefully I am a bootser in the making.

    Let us know how Lakeside goes. I felt the SA was too close for me to ever try glitching (no7 glitch wasn't on at the time but thought of it when I went).

    I went through most of the n07 product reviews and found which items stand out best. A lot have negative reviews and when I tried swatches in store it confirmed it for me in a way. However the blushes were highly rated but when I swatched the different blushes I didn't like them much at all. I'm not sure if it is different when you apply it to your cheeks but I can normally tell if I'll like it or not and I didn't so left those.

    I am considering brushes next so if anyone personally likes any of the brushes then post your suggestions.

    Its the Kings Cross station branch that has SS tills, not St P.

    I'm going to try the face and body brush in one transaction and a foundation brush in another as the reviews are excellent for that too.... :)

    I never though of make up brushes... Thanks for the ideas folks ;)

    Hope the glitch stays on until the vouchers stop... ;)

    Don't know how I missed this thread for so long! :)
    I have just tried this at MetroCentre and the ss till would not scan the ss voucher. I think somebody else has already mentioned this - its almost like the tills are set up to not accept them :(

    Was the bar code faded or creased as I used SS the other day for a few transactions and all went through fine no issues at all.
