Hi, have been sick for a couple of days so enough to have missed a lot of pages, but it's interesting to see tbear06 managed to get the glitch I believe cupcake had reported about the £2 voucher plus the free mini. Perhaps I have missed the posts about this (trying to read through them), but no glitch for me today...
Today I got a TG detox shampoo + TG Mini fixit hairspray but ended up paying £2.99 (£4.99 - £2) so no glitch Anyone else having this problem? Or should I have bought the heat defence spray specifically?

Didn't work for me either

I got the Straight and Protect Shampoo - maybe it depends which one you get.

Oh I went to Boots in Ayr today as they said it was a xmas special Grrrrrrrrrr got there and they said it is tomorrow. As I drove 34 miles especially to get there and get my free points on some things that I wanted I was miffed. I asked to speak to someone about it and the sales people were quite helpful and one told the younger one to phone the manager. She did and I got my 1000 points. I bought a 8500 electric toothbrush for half price at £37 quid and used a 2000 coupon that I got in the mail. Yahoo so I got £30.00 quid off after making my order up to £61.00. Oh I bought an oil of olay moisturiser with so many points but the girl said it was for a face mask. Anyway the oil of olay gift with purchase for definative went through without purchasing so I was a happy camper. Got a free gift with max factor too. Lovely bag with a brush, key ring, lip gloss, foundation, eye shadow mini pantene shampoo and conditioner. Didn't give me slimfast shakes for half price tho. I didnt notice until I had got home. Hope that helps girls. Taffy

I bought 2x P&P serum and got 5 GWP!!! £99/£18 = 5.5
The SA next to the one who served me told him that the till would only allow 1 GWP. I kindly asked my SA if he could try them all. He was rather shocked that they all went through FREE :j
I was going to go 2nite to get the extra 1000 pts but I didn't want to risk the P&P being out of stock.

You are lucky. I went to No7 counter tonight. Last Saturday a no7 lady let me have 2 gifts per bottle (I bought 2 bottles). But today she can't do this for me, as there were other 2 no7 ladies there. Both said their stocks were so limited, can't let me have more than 1. So I said ok and went away. I bought 3 bottles tonight with a normal till. Successfully pursuaded my sa to try 2 per bottle. Dare not to get more than 2. Now i know I should try to convince her.

BTW, happy me. Spent around £100 in real money tonight, got the points back around £60. So spent another £100 in points too. Then, got 2 goodies bags. Each has a clear big plastic box with 5-6 Clarins samples, 3 Armani perfume samples, and one with a Davidoff men sweater and another with a big DKNY bag.

Forgot to hand the voucher for free coke, so I paid for it. But only £0.90 which is very small comparing the bargain I got today.

Another thing is my store treated their customers very well with the yummy Thronton chocalate. I saw a sa open a box which was worth £8.99. Just got only 2 pieces for myself -- wanted to have more, but didn't want to look like I was too greedy.

:T well done for me today.

Hi,

I have been looking through the thread and might be being stupid ! But can anyone tell me if you get the 1000 points on the shopping evening £50 spend before the 3 4 2 gifts come off? (do i actually need to spend more than £50)

Does that make sense?

Many thanks in advance

Sally

I got the same as you and also had to pay £2.99. I think I'll take it back and forfeit my £2 haircare voucher as I wouldn't pay £2.99 for shampoo when I have bottles of the stuff and I don't need it.

I also got:

1 x free bottle of coke with voucher
1 x free mini Trevor Sorbet? shampoo (voucher from AC machine)
1 x free mini Toni & Guy hairspray (voucher from AC machine)
1 x 200ml Protect & Perfect beauty serum for £49.50 less 10% voucher (unique to my area to promote a new store opening) & 2 free gift bags (I stood my ground and said I didn't want it when only offered 1 gift bag - store supervisor/manager after wandering backwards and forwards decided I could have it on this occasion. ).

I forgot to get my special 10% off voucher back though.
Used an extra 350 points voucher for above transaction.
