    I popped into my local store earlier for another one of theseehero.jpg2.00 + earned 200 points with mag voucher:D I also bought,

    essential aromatherapy rose bubble bath reduced to 1.25

    JF serum, free with 2.00 till spit. SA said voucher wouldn't work on this.

    ME: it will work. I've used till spits on these before.

    SA: no it won't. It's a mini.

    ME: It isn't. Can you please try scanning it?

    So she scanned the serum again then scanned the till spit.

    ME: you've scanned the serum twice.

    SA: No I haven't! (glances at SA next to her and rolls her eyes!)

    She voided the sale then put everything through again, but didn't re-scan the 200points mag voucher until I mentioned it! she practically threw my reciept and change at me. She obviously didn't like the fact that I was getting stuff cheap/free. I hate that store on sundays. The sunday staff are so miserable:mad:
    I spotted this Boots_LemonMilk_140.jpg on buycosmetics.com for 55p:D

    i managed to get 8 garnier sprays and 4 lotions and a red lotion thing all by garnier for free!!!!!!!!!! they were all on clearance marked at 3.50 but as they are all on a 'save' they go through as free,
    !

    Wow! I'm impressed that you managed this - how much other stuff were you buying so that the freebies were disguised and the SA didn't notice? I tried with one spray and 4 other things yesterday, but had an eagle eyed SA so no luck!

    does this men we might be able to get fit flops AND pay with points *wonders hmm*
    Ooooh, I really hope so - I'd love some but don't want to pay cash for them - want to use up some of my points stash. Fingers crossed.

    I hope so too as would rather use points to pay for them but it would also make it easier for a refund if they don't fit :D
