    I'm going to try the 250 points with the £5 no. 7 voucher today with this:

    http://www.boots.com/brandtreatment/product_details_brand_treatment.jsp?productid=1057364&classificationid=1031592 (it's skincare right?)

    Plan is to hand over the 250 points voucher first, then once the SA says "£7.00 please", I will 'find' <ahem> the £5 off no. 7 voucher, hand that over, with £2.00, thus they'll be actually paying me 50p to take it away :D

    That should work shouldn't it?

    It will work:D Yesterday, I bought: No7 Gentle Renewing No Grains Exfoliator and used 250points voucher and it scanned ok. I also got a high lights so I could have another GWP + used 5.00 No7 and extra points voucher from AC machine:D

    I still have another 250points voucher to use, but can't bring myself to get just the one item, when I can throw in another high lights and voucher and get another GWP. The problem with this however, I will end up with another 250points voucher and have to repeat the process over and over and over and over again:rotfl:

    That's what I'm hoping to do with that product also so you'll have to let us know how you get on. I'm also planning on trying it with a No7 Men's skincare product as I think some of them are about £6, so an even better deal.
  • Thanks Sally06, that's good to know that it worked for you :)

    spacebabe, I'll report back later and let you know how I got on!
    You can't control everything in life....... your hair was put on your head to remind you of that :p

    I have just nominated Crazyposhgal for post of the month. :beer: :beer: :beer:
    She puts in so much work, and this thread grows faster than we can read it. She holds it all together for us, keeps it tidy and up to date. It's an easy source of reference for us without having to scroll through masses of pages. I beleive it is her organisation that keeps this thread growing.

    It's easy to take it all for granted, we just go to post one and there it all is, laid out for us. But crazyposhgal does all that work behind the scenes. And that is after reading not only all the new pages, but each and every post.
    I find it hard to keep up with just the reading of them, never mind the organisation of the first post.

    I hope others feel the same way, and vote for her first post. Thanks again crazyposhgal, where would we be without you. :happylove

    How do i vote for crazyposhgal, ive never done this before, so don't know how to

    We seem to spend pages of cyberspace with what this coupon will work with. Why don't we combine our results for the first page like the free highlighter offer?
    Clearly there is either a problem with the voucher which results in us being fobbed off with the "no combine with other offer" excuse or there is only a certain type of item included. I don't believe they have the tills set up to stop multiple couponing certainly didn't with the electric blanket and the fligh soks in the past.
    I'll start doesn't work on P&P gift set or tan wipes told by supervisor it doesn't work with suncare stuff either but haven't tried this.
    Definitely works with the mens new skincare.
    Anyone else think this is a good idea?

    How daft am I then???

    I've just been clearing out a shelf in my wardrobe and found not one but seven jars of Botanics Body Butter. I'd forgotten all about them. Smells fine and I'll use it, but how long ago was that particular glitch on then? I wasn't a Bootser then or even an MSE-er, but obviously the glitch was a worthwhile one otherwise I wouldn't have this particular stash. There was also a small heap of No7 skincare, btw, including three tubes of Awakening Eye Gel.

    Don't get me wrong...I use a lot of Body Butter because there's a lot of me to butter, but seven jars? Not including all the Sanctuary and S&G stuff I've stashed this year? I'll have to spend the rest of the year like a greased pig to use all that lot up......

    I have huge stashes too!

    The problem is ,that I buy new items on glitches etc and am dying to start using them but always feel I should use up my stash first:o

    I have a bottle of the Jam Session Soap and Glory that looks soooo scrummy,but I am being good and using up my others first.............it could be years before I get round to the Jam session:eek:


    OH has stacks of mouthwash too from Boots and Mr Tesco:eek:
    :j I love bargains:j
    I love MSE
