When we have a VAT Free Sale, we discount the price down to €8.13 +VAT so the total you pay is €10.00, which is the same as the original price, but without the VAT. 

Subject to a €20+VAT minimum spend. Enter the code before the checkout to redeem the offer. Please ensure you have entered any promotional codes before checking out, as discounts cannot be applied retrospectively to an order. VAT Free discount does not apply to the delivery charge and will not be applied to products already subject to a price reduction or discount. This VAT free offer means the total payable is the pre-VAT total of the merchandise. This offer cannot be used in conjunction with Privilege Points, or 4+1 promotions. Salon Furniture & Equipment, Training Courses, College Kits and Shipping are excluded from the offer. VAT free promotion is available online and in Capital stores (open to personal callers only). If you’re VAT registered you can still reclaim your VAT!

Please ensure you have entered any promotional codes before checking out, as discounts can not be applied retrospectively to an order.
