    Just been to newcastle boots and the free gift packs you got with a £15 or £18 spend on Loreal or Olay are advertised as free with a £5 facial purchase. it does not have to be Loreal or Olay as originally offered. . Not sure if this is now available in all stores.
    Just about to give up!

    I think my first shop shows that you don't have to get shampoo to get TS long hair product the 2items I bought were not from the TS long hair range. Vouchers did beep though but SA ( manager:eek: ) overrode the till on both occassions as she said I had met criteria

    What I was hoping to find out was whether the glitch where you get the more expensive product free worked if no shamp or cond was in the equation, as that's how it worked for me. And it looks like it works as long as you have any Long Hair product as one of the two items! Yippie! Think I'll go get the shine at 3.99 and the long hair curl serum at 6.99, use all my vouchers and pay 1.99 plus 100 points back. Thanks for giving your lists! :)

    So does it look like there has been a problem with the production?

    None in my mag.

    I don't know if it's a production problem; I assumed it was more like a cost issue where they were only putting this extra thing in some magazines (the way it's designed would probably cost more to print). I don't know if it's completely random, or if the mags with extra coupons are targeted to certain areas based on demographics or sales histories for these products. They may be going with parts of the country where people supposedly have more disposable income and will blow it on hair stuff they don't need. As if Bootsers don't do that everywhere!

    Deffo works if you have one product from TS long range, probably more worthwhile only getting one from that range incase you do get beep ( like I did) I am sure SA would only override the cheaper item if that happened, however as I only got one from the TS long range that is the one that had to be manually deducted;)
    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.

    It's not on pigsback any more either :mad: found that out the other day when I tried. Apparantly it's been removed from all cashback sites for the time being and will be back on sometime in July :confused:

    "Do not be silly", said the Man, "for a frock alone cannot do that".
    "True", said the Lady, "I will have the shoes and the bag as well".
