Bought Your Home magazine March issue as recommended on your forum. Took the voucher to my local Focus and chose tin of paint £10.99. At the cash desk I was told paint was special offer , two tins for £16. Got another tin , went to pay, and the full price of the voucher was taken off my bill. So I got two tins of paint and only had to pay £5.01p. Bargain or what ! Thanks for the tip !.

lucky you
seems different stores have their own rules
at our stores i had problems even getting my 1 can free ...had 3 vouchers us and they would only accept one ...so ended up paying £16 for the other 2 as had travelled quite a distance to get to our nearest store that would accept them as our local one is closing and doesnt do offers
sent letter and receipt with free paint coupons recorded delivery to Focus headquarters for refund0 -
Hiya, I got 2 cans of magnolia with 2 x vouchers. I have a Focas store on my road. I went in with the first voucher and got 1 can, as the voucher does say 1 per transaction. Then an hour or so later I sent son (18) over for the second tin :T .If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
Spring begins on 21st March.0 -

hii got 10 mags myself. the first time i went in i went in with 1 and give oh 1 so we went through seperately, then i went back in and told the assistant to run them through as 2 seperate transactions using code 3 which he did with managers help then the last time i took all 6 and they did them all as seperate transactions for me no bother.im pregnant and having to do 3 bedrooms and would like ideally to do all the hall and stairs so i think this is the biggest bargain ive had as it came at a time i needed to decorate but couldnt afford to!the paint is ok as well, took two coats over some sicky green colour (previous occupant) so one room used 4 tins of paint but it is big and that included the ceiling too. got 6 left now to do same size room upstairs and then sons room, tempted to get more or is that too greedy?thumbs up!xthumbs up!***MSE...My.Special.Escape***0

I have got 48 tins of this paint now in lots of different colours. Initially, I had a few problems as I wanted to get a few at a time but they were ok especially in a focus that is closing down as they are selling the paint at half price £5.50 and each time I use a coupon they get redeemed full price of £10.99 so the Manager was quite happy to let me get my tins.
On my hit list I still need 2 ice pink matt and some paint for the living room.
I am planning on painting, 6 bedrooms, the hallways x 2, the landings x 2, a dining room and our living room and as I type now Mr Welshy is repainting the kitchen.
I saved myself a fortune and bought the magazines with coupons too so didn't pay £1.99 for each one.
I have about 10 vouchers left now and as my parents renovate properties I will be giving them any spare paint that we have left over.
Welshy xI am the only Voucher Queen in my village LOL
