    Did you try that recently and it worked? Someone said they tried it and didn't get a till spit, so I'm unsure if I should try it -- I'd hate to waste a chance to get a till spit by spending a couple quid too little!

    could you try it and if it doesn't reach £5 add something to it. I usually ask the SA if they could see if the voucher etc would work and if it doesn't say I'll leave it for now.

    I had a query about the 342 No7 today and whether the voucher would work or not on the free item. The SA said I'm not sure but will try it for you. I didn't have the vouchers on me but will ask them to try before I buy.

    I know this has been asked before, so my apologies:

    - when has the summer sale started in the past?
    - what is included exactly in these sales? it's not like there is a lot of giftsets as for xmas... I am wondering if I should worry and try to be there early :p

    TIA

    I don't think you could query it, as you won't know if the register considered you had a 5 quid spend until after you pay and the till spit comes out, at which point it's too late to add something else to your purchase if it didn't work. I'm sure if you asked the SA would tell you "no" because you hadn't spent 5 (even if it turned out she was wrong once you paid).

    I couldn't even open it!
    then I found another link, printed one and copied that into word and it came out tiny (well smaller than the original). then I gave up cos I don't suppose I will even use it - watch a super glitch come up:rotfl:

    Yes, skibster. That is exactly the problem. Remember yesterday DebbieR mentioned she spend slightly less than 5, but without the voucher it would have been much more than £5, and she did not get a till spit. At the time I asked her if the till spits were paper voucher or till spits, because the tillspits are automatic.

    In my case, I just have 2 vouchers, one each, and I may use them in the same transaction and just add a couple of stuff. It is easy to buy soap and toothpaste to get it over the total!!

    you could say could you tell me how much this would come to if you had more than one thing then ask to add to it. I would try it - they would probably think I can't add up:D

    the voucher I was emailed looks exactly like this one. The barcode is the same. So as someone has mentioned, it suffices to print this image that h007 has kindly posted. There is no need to click the link. My link has already expired as well, but I had saved the image in my desktop, though I don't think I will use it at all. The fitflops would have been great, but online it says online exclusive.
