Jan '14 Boots voucher uses

Happyjaw

I know there's usually a thread because I always consult it before I go shopping to see what I might be able to get to best suit me and use my vouchers.
Can't find one this time.
So, I took my two vouchers and picked up 2 BB creams and a facial scrub, which under the voucher terms should come under the BOGOF on make up (BB is officially under make up now) and 342 on No7 skincare etc. However, it didn't like the scrub and refused the offer. So I changed the scrub for the vacuum face mask and it came in at £12.47 which is cheaper than any single item.
My receipt is like this(cant suss how to load a pic):
No7bb crm 12.95
no7 bb crm 12.95 now 6.48 saving 6.48
no7 pore vacuum mask 14.00
(includes previous no bb crm)
(includes previous no bb crm) -12.95
No 7 voucher saving -3.00
No 7 voucher saving -5.00

Total to pay £12.47
So I think it has worked to combine BOGOF + 342 and money off. HURRAH! I love BB Cream and the vacuum mask is pretty good.

looks like the BB cream and tinted moisturiser might be glitchy again -

ie 342 and bogohp with 2 of the glitchies, plus a skincare item of your choice -

pore mask £14
BB cream half price on make-up bogohp £6.47
BB cream free on skincare 342

= £20.47 to pay - £5 skincare voucher and £3 make-up voucher = £12.47 to pay .

my fave combo from last time this worked was -

tinted moisturiser x2 at £11.50 each, plus the No7 essentials night moisturiser £9.95 - with the double glitch and the vouchers both coming off, it works out at £9.25 to pay (even better when the tillspit was working alongside the 2 glossy vouchers to give an extra £8 off too ).

eta - just noticed the bronzing pearls £9.95 and bronzing duo and mosaic pallettes £11.50 are showing on the 342 - they would all be bogohp and 342 on the glitch too!

Are the till splits and glossies no longer working together?

Did you use a self service till?

I would not let you down Balletshoes :rotfl:

I have tried the following with no success :mad:
Till spit and glossy, computer said NO
Tried to see if the till spit would take £8 off the bronzing pearls, computer said NO.
Tried the £3 voucher with a nail varnish reduced to £3, computer said NO.
Also to make it worse everyone seems to be giving me their N0 7 coupons, I’m sure I have about 20.
I think this will be the first year B00TS will have a decrease in customers but an increase in profits.

Probably a good thing …….. allows us all to actually use the 6 bronzing pearls, 4 BB creams, 3 day creams, 4 cleansers and 3 night creams that we got in the 4 carrier bags in the bottom of the wardrobe.

Can anyone tell me if you were using self service tills when you managed to use both glossies in the same transaction? I assume you were as the SA would never be so helpful!!! I'd appreciate confirmation before Friday so I know whether to make a 30 mile round trip to my nearest store with SS tills.


Thanks in advance ladies.

i use manned tills with the No7 glossies - I just make sure I split them before I reach the till and hand them over one at a time. Some SA's will not try them, others will with no problems at all (I don't go to the No7 SAs though, pharmacy or photography tills are usually a better bet).

I have to admit I am wading my way through my No7 moisturisers from the double tillspit/glossy combo last summer - and I have enough No7 bronzing pallettes to last me about 5 years I think :rotfl:.

These current No7 vouchers are pretty useless aren't they? Thanks for trying Mon.

So in theory if I buy:


Duo bronzer £11.50
Duo bronzer £11.50 BOGOHP -£5.75
Hot cloth cleanser £9.95 free on 342


Balance = £17.25
glossies - £8.00


£9.25 to pay.


OR


BB cream £12.95 free on 342
BB cream £12.95 BOGOHP -£6.48
Night cream £13.50


Balance = £19.97
glossies - £8.00


£11.97 to pay


Am I right in thinking you have to buy 2 glitchy items such as BB cream, bronzing palette or duo or pearls PLUS a skincare item so that you can use both glossies.
