    Hmm I swore it was Tesco's that had Aussie haircare 2 for £5 but maybe it was Boots???? :confused:
    I've been so into getting ready for my Boots shop I can't think straight now :rotfl:

    Not sure how you managed to get a £5 voucher for spending £10 when you infact only handed over £4.99.
    I only parted with £5.XX in cash today for my booty of mascara, highlighter & GWP. I asked if I ought to get another voucher but was told the total to pay did not reach £10 so no voucher.

    Not knocking you, fair play just that I went back into store & asked but 2 SA said no! Can anyone clarify which way is working for them to also get another voucher.

    Facial hair trimmer was 9.99 reduced to 4.99, highlighter 10.25 I dont know if the till reads trimmer as 9.99 or not just know that all I spent was 4.99 and received a voucher have tried to find my till reciept to see how it was worked out but must be at work on my desk, sorry.

    Yes I do see that. Did cpg post a while ago suggesting new glitches in bold? Would that work?

    i think its a fab suggestion so anyone just skipping through would spot them :)

    Can i just say that i like the chat on this thread. Please keep it going. Im just starting to know about all the deals and loopholes so seeing other people asking the questions helps me and probably other new people out.

    Hi Passion8 - I chose the foundation to make sure my total spend was over £20 to get the GWP but she told me that since I would only be paying for the foundation (the Highlighter being free), my total spend wouldn't in fact be over £20 so no GWP. Sorry if I didn't make this clearer earlier. Such a pain as to different SAs in different stores. I daren't go anywhere near the No. 7 counter in the large Middlesbrough store - one of the dragons there would even scare the likes of Childcatcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang or Freddy Kruger into never daring to approach "her" stock again :o

    Mari, I'm still new at all of this so I have to tread carefully :o:D

    I've used this offer, and it is an offer, but as I see it, and as I've understood it from posts that other posters have made, the highlighter is technically not free until you hand over that voucher from the magazine.

    As long as that is handed over last (I believe?) it definitely does work. I got my sis to get me two GWP yesterday (because I daren't lol), and the highlighter and two nail polishes (might have been the Dream Lash - I can't think at the moment) worked. Anything over £10, with the highlighter & voucher for it, (as long as it meets the T&C's, as yours did), should work.

    I also got her to use the £5 voucher for the M&R and No7 etc, so one transaction only cost £5.50, the same as most others have received.

    I'd try again, but not at the No7 counter ;)
