Just found this on another thread

"I haven't read all the posts on this forum so don't know if this has been mentioned ... I know Bourjois are a subsidiary of Chanel. So can't be that much difference in their cosmetics."

:eek: Well i am shocked think i might have to spend my £2 till splits after all never tried Bourjois before

I posted this on post #108. It's a nice brand and the range is quite hip.

A fabulous shop for me this morning

Printed off my vouchers from the ACM (2 x UG half price cond. and 2 x med. soap) and off I trotted...... first to the No7 stand, where I managed to get 3 nail kits (SEL said £10 but I knew better ), then off to the med. section where there were 3 soaps winking at me. Popped 1 into basket along with the almond body wash (wanted to try it on something "cheaper" first!).... a quick detour to the UG stand, shampoo & conditioner into basket and off to the tills went I.

The SA put everything through, I handover over the vouchers, she scanned, they didn't beep (hurrah) and then she said "hang on a minute..... (oh !!!!!! I thought!) this has taken off the body wash instead of the soap". Me: "really? oh gosh". She then called over to the SA at the next till "Margaret*, this voucher is wrong, it's taken off the body wash and it's supposed to take off the soap". Marge replied "really Joyce*, well if that's what the till says, then it must be right" (I'll be going to YOU next thought I). Joyce congratulated me on my bargains and off I went again.

I got the blue gift bag the 2nd time and the UG shampoo & cond. again (in a feeble attempt to disguise my purchases!) and off I went to Marge. Eyebrows raised she said "so, you think you're going to get this free?". I went bright red and stuttered "er..... hopefully?" and she put it all through and it worked She looked absolutely amazed and handed over my bag (slightly begrudgingly I thought!) and I then legged it

As I was leaving, I glanced back and Marge was getting up from her chair and looked like she was logging herself off her till. Going to get the last soap and gift bag maybe?!

I bored H ALL the way home in the car about it..... am still high as a kite now (this was the Coventry Central 6 store btw, to add to the list of stores that it works at).

*names have been changed to protect the innocent. No SAs were harmed in the purchasing of these bargains.

Bloomin' marvellous shop! And a girl after my own heart so proud of you. It really does leave you on a high doesn't it?!!
Well done getting an understanding SA, it helps so much :T:T

Can't wait to get some more vouchers and do this all over again tomorrow, gift sets here i come lol! Ooo, getting excited now, roll on tomorrows post!!! :D
(Thanks for the vouchers peeps who offered, and jtb2412 who found it) i love this glitch xxx

YAY I got an expert tin today:j I was in North Road, wandered all round the shop then asked the SA behind the till if they had any. She said yes we've got a box full!! with it being a small shop there wasn't as much choice and not alot of cheaper items but who cares I got one:rotfl:

Scorpiokitten, I very nearly bottled it on the 2nd transaction I picked up the gift bag..... then put it back again and picked up another body wash. Then I gave myself a virtual slap and put the body wash back and grabbed the gift bag again. I figured what's the worst that could happen? The SA says no. No harm done really

I know what you mean about being excited about the really good glitches like this one, I could hardly sleep last night with excitement about it :rotfl:

Am going to a different store on Thursday and will try it again Wonder if the ACM will give out the vouchers a second time? Has anyone had any luck with this or is it once you've had your quota, then that's your lot?

sorry if this question has already been posted but i couldn't see it anywhere. with the mediterranean soap glitch is it just the mediterranean range that works as i notice the voucher says free soap with mediterranean or amazon range purchase?

If anyone has any spare med vouchers they don't want, I'd be happy to try and swap something with you. I have allsorts on the ACM I don't want - shampoo etc - or if you're into Tescoing, mocs or 75%ers.

Sorry - but if you don't ask, you don't get!

I even asked my Mum's next door neighbour if she had a boots card....how sad am I?

hi i've been reading this thread for a few weeks now and loving it! i tried the med glitch at Exe bridges retail park in Exeter and it worked! got body scrubs with the soaps. BUT scanner stopped working so sa had to type barcodes in manually and thought she'd notice, but all she said was 'wow thats cheap'! got 8 items for £6 when one body scrub is £7.50. (2 vouchers from my card, 2 from my mums)
no nail kits, no hat boxes, no expert tins, no s+g sets, and ted baker bags were full price. Gutted.
