    I tried today with 2 vouchers 1 for 150 and the 2nd for 125 couldn't get a 100 voucher. 1st boots took it okay, even for the sachets. Boots in St Helens read then re read and said i couldn't use them as they were not for sachets and i had 3 sachets. I told her to just try them and she then said i can only use 1 voucher. so i decided on the 150 one well you would wouldn't you. Maybe it's come to an end for me. Till i try tomorrow.

    Why not just canel the sale then?
    As suggested I always buy 3 three other products with the sachets,if they say anything I say they are differant though :-/and point out the 3 differant points amounts,that tends to work for me.

    Went today to buy lots of sachets etc. Only get 100 points and they were still 89p a sachet, so couldn't be bothered queuing with all the Xmas shoppers, to redeem 11p on 4 sachets :(

    One day, I may get the chance at 3 different sets of points on the same items. Good luck to all of you lot anyway - good on yer ;D

    They do come up as 89p at the top of your receipt but the extra 20 odd p is taken off at the bottom.
