Customers have been stacking deals and discount codes
Shoppers have been flocking to Boots stores and the retailer's website after spotting a hack to buy a luxury foundation at a price they've 'never seen so cheap' before. The high-end product that is showing at £37.50 is being snapped up for around £25.00 after customers have been stacking deals and discount codes for the store.
Some fans of Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation claim that the trick makes the beauty buy even cheaper than it could be bought at an outlet store. At the time of writing, according to Boots' website, more than 100 people were viewing the item online and in excess of 100 people had purchased it in the last 24 hours.
The 30ml product retails at £37.50 and comes in over 60 shades. Add this to its claimed "24-hour staying power" and it is no wonder that the beauty brand lays claim to it being 'the number one prestige foundation in the UK'.So, just how do you bag the hefty discount to reduce the item to just under £25? Manchester Evening News spotted a hack being talked about on Facebook group, Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK.
For a start, the Boots website currently has a deal which, using the code 'SAVE5ELFOUNDATION', knocks the price down to £32.50. The next trick is to check your Advantage Card offers. Card holders all get different offers, but some shoppers have reported snagging an in-app offer which knocked £10 off a £40 spend. This then promoted them to buy two foundations resulting in a total basket price of £65.00 then £55.00 taking it down to £55.00 for two - £27.
One savvy shopper said they'd managed to get it even cheaper with their 10 percent student discount. So, potentially taking the price to £24.75 each when buying two. Shoppers pointed out that, depending upon which codes were available, the item was cheaper than they'd bought at an outlet store. The Cosmetics Company, which has an outlet at East Midlands Designer Outlet, has been reported as selling the item at £26.75.
