    Tried everything cannot get it to work..odd
    Thought I'd try the 2 for £3 deodorant to check if it worked but can't even see the 2 for £3 deodorant offer., 2 for £4 yes...but it doesn't work with that either.

    It didn't work for me either. Popped in 3 4 2 items, totalling £59.97 before the 3 4 2 knocks off £19.99 but it doesn't work.

    Shoved a packet of Huggies wipes in for good measure, still didn't work.

    What exactly is the glitch? It's totally gone over my head.

    On certain items it is allowing the points on the total of £50 before the discount is knocked off. I posted examples of my basket costing around £38 after 3 for 2 is knocked off and it was still allowing the extra points

    Sweetie, what exactly did it say? Did it say 1200 points at the bottom or just 200 points and "£10 worth of points if you spend £50"?

    It clearly has to say 1200 points or the points won't be added on.

    I have just done what you have said and all it says is 200 points. On the line below it says but it does not mean you have been awarded the 1000 extra points:
    Your "Collect £10 worth of points when you spend £50 or more in a single transaction" promotion total:
    Remove Promotion

    When Jodie and Matt did theirs and posted it on, it said:

    Your Advantage Card points will be awarded to you when you receive your order. Total Advantage Card points you will earn:
    1206 –
    Promotions

    Your "Collect £10 worth of points when you spend £50 or more in a single transaction" promotion total:
    Remove Promotion

    The advantage points awarded to them are 206 for the spend and the promotional 1000 points, hence the total being 1206.

    When I tried using the deodorants, it only said 200, the promotional points did not go on.

    You couldn't tell us which babygrow (price and name) if you could please.

    I have just tried 3 x S and G manicure sets, a baby grow and a set of wipes, and all it said was "you have earnt 128 points". No mention of the 1000 promotional ones.
