Buy Boots deal, get another Boots deal free?

Buy Boots deal, get another Boots deal free?: "

boots logo 300x182 Buy Boots deal, get another Boots deal free?Thanks to avid Bitterwallet reader Chris for pointing out an interesting hack on special offers at Boots, which was originally posted in the Failheap Challenge forums:


Boots has various “Buy product X, get product Y free” deals, including:


• buy paracetemol get a water free; and

• buy ibuprofen get a water free


Boots also has:


•buy two waters for £1.50 (a discount of about £1).


When using the automated checkouts, I bought 1 ibuprofen, 1 paracetamol (total expected cost, £2.64), then scanned my two “free” waters – the display showed that both were subject to the free offer, but when I scanned the second one the discount ALSO accrued.


The total cost ended up £1.64, so I got both waters for free AND £1 off.


I have yet to explore the shop in details but is obviously conceivable to get even greater exploit benefits if this works with all deals.


Any avid Bitterwallet read care to check out whether this hack works or not?
