Don't know if this peculiar to just the store I used but.........
Soltan Suncare Lotion offer: Spend £12 & get free Soltan Once Face factor 30, 50ml worth £10.
OK, so I buy £10 Soltan Once 200ml, £10 Soltan Once Face 50ml (because I use the products & to take me over the £12 'spend' required). Plus the additonal 'free' £10 Soltan Once Face 50ml.
Total spend £20 & the 'free product. NOT!
At the checkout she rings up all 3 products & I'm charged £10.
Till receipt shows the 200ml product correctly as £10. The 2 Face products showing separately as 'linked' offer products both priced at £0.00.
Thanks Boots, undercharged by £10. :T :T

I went to boots this afternoon and it worked for me!
I bought 2 Soltan Face 50ml SPF50+ and one SPF30 and was charged £10! 3 for the price of 1!
I also spent enough (£50) to get the free beauty box which also has a Soltan face cream in it! :j :money:No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2023

I think this works because most Soltan under 100ml are minis which are currently 3 for 2. There is also 3 for 2 on some skincare including some Soltan tanning - (see online under Soltan then 3 for 2.) The 'free' £10 Soltan Once Face 50ml works on the spend before 3 for 2.
I bought four sun items for a total of £10 - two (£5) 75ml children's 'Once' & one adult (£5) 75ml adult 'Once' - plus the 'free' £10 Soltan Once Face 50ml.
Not always easy to find the 3 for 2 Soltan instore. They can be with the general travel minis section & some shops have many sun tan lotion stands.
The 'free' £10 Soltan Once Face 50ml is no longer on offer online, so not sure how long it will be instore.
I think the free £50 gift may also work if the total before 3 for 2 is £500 -

40p worth of Advantage points, £1 worth if you are registered with one of Boots 'clubs' (Seniors, Baby's etc.)0 -
I tried Soltan Once and I burnt within 2 hours.
Will stick to Ultrasun or Piz Buin Once a day now.
Each to their own but just a word of warning for people if they haven't used it before. May be best not to rely on it being a once a day product.I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Competitions Time, Shopping & Freebies boards, Employment, Jobseeking & Training boards If you need any help on these boards, do let me know.

Me too - I used Once Clear Spray and the areas I put it on burned. The areas that had no sun protection on didn't burn. I think the one I used has since been discontinued but after I got burnt I read the reviews and other people had said the same.0 -

I did this today too, thanks OP and Bougainvillea, perfect size for me taking in my bag on days out (but I won't rely on the "Once" as in once a day, I'll use it like normal re-application suncreams).0 -
Just got an email saying Triple points on Soltan today only!

Don'r bother with this. I read an article in one of the papers over the weekend, where experts were saying that cheapo sun tan lotions (in poundland, poundshop, B&M, etc.) were just as good as the more expensive stuff.0
