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 could've got 10 as the till allows 5 to go through per bottle... as each bottle costs £99 before the "save" is applied.

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.

Think I may have an idea why T&G glitch .ie. large shampoo (£4.99) and mini (£1.69?) for £1.30 when using £2 haircare voucher, works for some and not others. The free mini voucher has to be the one where you have to buy a full size product to get the mini not the voucher which gives you a free mini without buying another product. Just an idea, HTH.

What an evening. I spent 2 x over £50 and got 2,000 points that way, then another 1,300 bonus points for buying two special products, add to that the "normal points", I am 3,616 points richer as of today! I also got a free Diet Coke and two £2 hair care vouchers. Some items were 3 or 2 or half price or 20% off with a voucher. I sorted out quite a few Christmas presents and I am well chuffed!

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?

Bizarre, but it worked for me on my first transaction, but not on the 2nd.....

Bought T&G straight & protect shampoo & a mini heat defence . The till took off £2 hair voucher, and the £1.69 for the free mini twice (£1.30 to pay).

Did the same again and the £1.69 only came off once (so £2.99 to pay). The only difference I can spot is that in the 1st transaction, the shampoo was scanned first, in the 2nd txn the mini was scanned first.

The barcodes were the same on the products, and the hair vouchers came from the same shop on the same evening. The ACM free mini vouchers came from different cards though, they looked the same, but didn't pay too much attention to them at the time.

The only other thing is I've no idea what order the vouchers were scanned in, so maybe that's the key to it all???

Hi,

I did use the buy a full size product to get the mini. Guess it only works on specific products. Although I did get the actual free mini without buying another product voucher too for both Toni & Guy and Trevor Sorbet.

When I used my vouchers for a free mini I handed over the 2.00 off voucher first then the voucher for a free mini. I did this twice and the glitch worked both times. It's hard to say whether the order you hand over the vouchers is the reason why the glitch works/doesn't work or if it's the products you buy

I'm quite a novice at boots so can I ask if there is any way I can get extra points by spending £99.99 on a DS lite instore? I've got a 200 points WYS £20 and a double points coupon but i wondered if there would be any extra points available.Would be gutted if I bought it and then discovered later extra points!!

The only thing that I can think of is wait until your xmas boots night at your nearest store and get an extra 1000 points for every £50 that you spend.

PM sent to you x-x
