3 for 2 offers

Beware when buying more than one 3 for 2 offers in Matalan and M&S.

If you buy say 3 gifts at £10 and 3 gifts at £5 all on 3 for 2 mix & match then the till will automatically give you 2 £5 gifts for free not one £5 and one £10 gift. i.e cost would be £35. So to ensure you save money put them through as separate transactions i.e. cost would be £30

    This happened to me yesterday at Matalan and I sent a complaint via email to them and they offered to send me vouchers for the difference, so if you have been caught out too you could try the same.

    Sister got caught in Matalan but she asked them at the till straight away to refund and resell as 2 lots. They initially refused as they don't refund toiletries but did eventually relent!!
