    Thought of a better deal than the above. Need to buy the following

    6xNicky clarke £4.28 = £25.68

    Total after BOGOF £9.21

    Therefore you can use

    2X£2.50 HB
    2X£2.50 SB
    Leaving £0.79 credit and even more if you use your QK vouchers

    And if you buy 8 products and use an extra HB and SB voucher (therefore 6 in total), you will be £2.80 in credit. The more you buy, the more you can save!! :D
    tried this today and only 1 H&B went through, cashier even tried twice for me, luckily I had other coupons which helped the total balance, and being a dimwit I forgot I could use the quits aswell

    did 4 shops today:

    2 x nick clarke
    1 JF sachet

    Just used £2.50SB and £2.50H&B which still gave me about 50p credit after the glitch. Trying to save my last few £1.25 QK in case we get another round of coupons next month.

    No Mousse at my closest store :( ... will try another one tomorrow :)

    Damn!
    I saw the elusive mousse today but the SEL said £2.odd (in red) so didn't bother trying it....do you think it would have gone through at 66p anyway ?

    It said 66p on the website yesterday but was at £2.odd on the website today ? Don't have any scanning thingamyjigs at my store.

    Does this mean the glitch has been fixed now? I was going to make a trip across town to look for some, but as it's 2 buses there and 2 back, I don't think I'll bother now :p

    I got overexcited and spotted the mousse. In front of it, the label said 66p.

    "Great", I thought, "I'll have 6 of those". Bought some other toiletry bits and pieces and also quite a lot of food. Went to the till. Total bill was £72-something (before BOGOFs and coupons). After BOGOFs and coupons, bill came to £38-something.

    I was really pleased until I checked my receipt and found that I'd been charged £2.59 for the mousse, not 66p. Due to this, I'd spent £27-odd on H&B before discounts, so I could have used loads more vouchers (well, actually, I wouldn't have even bought the mousse in the first place!!).

    When I worked it out, I did get £3.48 knocked off for each "pair" of mousses, which meant I was in credit of £2.67 for the mousses. However, because I bought extra toiletries, the credit of £2.67 wasn't enough to cover my coupon shortage, so I ended up paying £2-something for my toiletries.

    Not bad considering I got 6x mousse, 2x dove handwash, 2x colgage toothpaste and 2xsure deo, but not as good as free :D

    I was thinking about taking the mousses back. However...
    1) I don't to draw attention to myself and
    2) I think I might have picked up the wrong one (it's a red can with Firm Control written on it). The label in front definitely said 66p though. Not sure what to do :confused:

    Buy any of the bogof Nicky Clark/McAdam for just over a tenner and you can use £2.50SB, £2.50HB and £1.25 Quit......

    eg...2 x Nicky Clarke BOGOF £4.27 and a JF sachet £1.49 Total before BOGOF £10.03 ?Total after glitch £4.50ish 1SB x £2.50 1HB x £2.50 1QK x £1.25= £1.70 ish towards other shopping


    You can actually use 2 x £1.25 quit along with the others for a bigger saving off your other shopping. I have done this 4 x today.:T

    Being really thick...can I use 2 different vouchers on the same transaction as it says 1 voucher per transaction in the T&C's...

    Have bought some H&B vouchers on Ebay - so need tips on maximising their use.

    Have read 1st page of thread but still a little confused! xx :confused::p

    Yes you can.

    Just a word of warning, if you have two identical vouchers, sometimes they won't scan one after the other. Hand in the first identical voucher, then hand in a different voucher, then hand in the second identical voucher and they should all work :D
