Do you think this will work
P&P 16.75
lipilicious 9.00
P&P gradual tan stuff £9.00

use

500 points wyb 2 P&P
200 points colour cosmetics
400 points lipilicious
200 points suncare

342 takes off £9 so spend of 25.75 and 1300 points?

Couldn't say for certain - but if the Protect and Perfect Sun stuff will work with your 500 points voucher, why not also use the 500pts Facial suncare ACM voucher and buy two lip and eye screens instead of gradual tan and P&P? That would bring your points total up to 1800 and spend down to 20.50.

Hi Skibster,
I felt exactly like this when I tried the model me glitch- till beeped, supervisor came to over-ride the till so I missed out on the 2 for £9 saving :rolleyes:
It really really REALLY annoyed me as I too would never have bought the products without the voucher. My b/f also said it was silly to get stressed over a couple of quid, but it bugged me so much that I took both product back next day and got a refund lol. Then went back round with a combo people had successfully got on here instead. Felt like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders :rotfl:

On the bright side, think of the money you'll save by having a few days rest from Bootsing

It's silly how we beat ourselves up over the odd time when things go wrong rather being chuffed for all the times things have gone right lol

I got a lomi lomi gift set today and thought of Clare+3- when your vouchers would only work on the blooming lomi lomi sets and nothing else! I felt soooo bad getting it for £3.13 after all your ordeal Glad to hear you got some reduced goodies- it's confusing enough having it on 3 for 2 when some bits are reduced and others aren't, never mind having moc's to contend with!! Try adding up the full RRP of what you bought, and then compare that to what you actually paid- always makes me feel better anyway If that fails then I would recommend a nice glass of wine to take your mind of it

Snip...
So I basically got cheated out of two quid off on a hair product I never would've bought if it weren't for the coupons! On the bright side, I told my hubby and he said "Don't let £2 ruin your nice time shopping, don't worry about it." Made me feel better. Still annoyed, but not outraged. And now it should be easy to stay out of the store for a few days, 'cause it's no fun to go there if you don't get your deals.

Not sure if till will accept that you have bought 2 P&P products, I know the gradual tan stuff says P&P but I know Jellybean had a problem with a P&P voucher for something out of the same range..just prepare incase till doesn't accept this voucher

No 7 Anti- Ageing Anti-Dark Spot Facial Sun Protection 50+ £10.50

Very kind SA also tried my 500 wyb Protect and Perfect which beeped, even though the Facial Anti-Dark spot stuff is called P & P?

But it is the P& P serum I need ! Also like the gradual tan stuff -weather is so rubbish it is the only way I can look less pale this summer!

Hi

I don't think the 500 points wyb 2 P&P will work- if that is the voucher from the mailing then it would only work on the P&P serums- either facial or body.
Would be worth a go but you may not be able to use the P&P voucher.
Sorry!

Know what you mean! I am either white or red in the summer. I have used the pre-holiday serum before which made me the colour of a rich tea biscuit (very subtle!) As Amelia's Mummy, Tiara and Jelly Baby pointed out the two together may not work together for the P&P 500 points, unless you twist a nice SA's arm to override the till. Good luck!

Hi elisamoose,

What is the P & P mailing you've got? When you buy 2x P & P products?

Mine was (or should I say is, 'cos they've sent me home with it! ) simply 500 wyb P & P. Like AM has quoted all my other vouchers went through fine but my P&P wouldn't work on the face stuff. I suppose I could have stood and argued the point, especially since it says P&P on the box! but I had so many points added already plus the UG glitch was sitting there on my receipt so I didnt really want the manager ambling over. :rotfl: Plus the No 7 stand is right next to the security lair. :rolleyes:

The Tan Maintainer (£9) is pretty good for a soft glow. Im really fair skinned so any proper fake tan makes me look a l'orange!

I think the only way I'll be able to get my b/f into Bootsing would be if I could save my points for a Lexus :rotfl:

BTW has anyone seen Passion8 lately?? RubyLou, can you check and see if they have actually set up that camp bed in store for her

ugh was not my day today!

1st shop:
UG conditioning mask 0.09p with both vouchers
botanics rdiance beaty lotion thingy £4.69?
botanics mini scrub £2.00-this got reduced on bogohp
clearance shaving gel 0.35p x 2

Till beeped with my 1/2 price facial botanics, boo. but ws pleased with the UG for 9p and got a til spit so went in search of more UG...

got another mask and some jemma kidd files and wipes for the points-when the SA asked for £7.09p I asked her to check the till spit had been taken off. It hadn't. Had to then have an argument (albeit friendly) about how it was "allowed" and I'd just done it upstairs. After consulting a supervisor it was agreed I should have got the £2 off (HUGE queue behind me now). However, neither SA at the till can do refunds so I got asked to go to the pharmacy to ask for refund. Then had to have another argument and another supervisor before I get refunded and have to do the transaction again, losing 8 points in the process somehow

Then I came home and my boyfriend snapped one of the prongs of the plug on my straighteners off in the socket :eek: :rolleyes:

I did cheer myself up by admiring the stash I have acquired in the last few weeks
