    yes I did too, I was refused the 3 for 2 though, but seeing as I have another 6 mirror vouchers am going to try again tomorrow in another store, just to let people know that the 3 for 2 on No7 and Time Delay ends on Tuesday (21st) so worth using them before that to get the most benefit. Also tomorrow's mirror vouchers are to include £5 off No7 suncare which is on BOGOF until Tuesday, so worth trying to use all your vouchers in the next couple of days.

    Charlotte, why were you refused 3 for 2? Were you trying to use more than one of the same voucher? (Just curious, trying to figure out the best way to use my vouchers ;) )

    Dormouse I used the £5 Time Delay today plus the £3 Botanics plus the 300pts coupon in the Boots Mag no problem. Got 3 Time Delay Wipes and 1 Botanics Wipe Total Cost £3 plus 312 pts.

    Noticed on the Website if you put 1 No 7 Skincare, 1 No 7 Cosmetics and 1 No 7 Bodycare it took the cheapest off in the basket. Will try in store later in the week - so it is 3 for 2 across the range. Just need to make sure that the 2 dearest items come to £15 ish and it is quite feasible that you would likely present all 3 vouchers at the same time after all one wouldn't visit Boots on a daily basis unless you are a Boots Tart of course.

    So pleased with my Time Delay Wipes - picked up another Boots mag and Mirror on the way home.

    Ps The Silky Mitts don't work with the £2 Hair Removal voucher.

    Cable & Wireless 8500 Cordless DECT Phone, says reduced to £47.99, but when you add it to the basket ots £33.59......so you could add a few stuff and get free postage and then £10 off with the online vouchers section codes

    Yes, that's my point. If I pick up 3 of the same and present 2 vouchers for the same, surely that's kosher??

    I had 3 Time Delay vouchers so took 3 packs of wipes to the till, she scanned all 3 and I gave her 2 vouchers, the till bleeped and would not accept 2 vouchers the same, I then had to get her to void 2 off so that I got all 3 free of charge by doing 3 separate transactions, by the end of it she was very stroppy although she had nothing else to do and nobody was waiting. If anyone has managed to more than 1 type in 1 transaction then I don't know how. You can however use 1 Time Delay and 1 No7, that worked ok, hope this helps. I have tried it twice and am sick of stroppy Boots assistants, what is their problem, they could always go and buy the newspaper themselves, they are just not happy about people getting things cheap or for nothing. Not my problem though!

    Found another £6 No7 product: Stay Perfect Smoothing and Brightening Eye Base! So, got that one, a nail varnish and a makeup remover, all £6 each, 3 for 2, used 10% voucher, the Mirror No7 cosmetics £5 off and the Mirror No7 skincare £5 off, and paid 80p for £18 worth of stuff! :j (Was very chuffed to find an assistant who was grumpy and strict looking but nevertheless scanned all the vouchers ;) )

    Then was trying to do the same with Botanics, which is 3 for 2, but it didn't work for some reason... :confused: Had two wipes and a men's thing, used a male grooming voucher and the Mirror £3 one, but still ended up paying for 1 pack of wipes minus 10%. Dunno... Maybe men's stuff isn't included in the 3 for 2, even though I thought it was... :confused:

    I've just got allsorts of things on the vouchers, the NO 7 Sucare stuff is BOGOF had to do all separate transactions though, the Boots range shaving stuff i have had 3 lots free 3 X2 6 products, they were lovely at the first Boots but a bit stroppy at the next one.

    Curiously i found staff buying with the coupons but guess what they were getting the 3 for 2 offers and using alot of coupons together.

    I had a 10 % voucher but felt a little cheeky about using it so didn't after all i had 2 @£5.50 suncares for 50p to pay so was more than Happy

    Ticket on shelf said WAS £14.99 NOW £3.35
    Scanned at till WAS £5.00 NOW £2.50 plus additional saving of £1.67

    Now if you buy 5 the till takes the WAS £5.00 price to work out the bonus points (as metioned before in these forums) to get at total of £25 which qualifies for the spend £25 on Baby Stuff and get 500 points.

    Total to pay £4.15
