MSE Andrea has asked me to post this as a new thread, and I've called it Olay Ole, cos I just feel like shouting "Ole", and flinging my arms in the air when I've done it!:j
The ACM may give you (cos we know we don't get all the same things) a coupon for 500 points when you buy 2 Olay items. So if you get 2 of the Olay Total Effects Cleanser that are £5.86 each, this is what you do:
Go to a manned till (it doesn't work on Self Service), present your 2 Olay Total Effects Cleanser then 2 x £5 off vouchers, followed by your 500 points voucher.
You may meet with surprise/amazement/shock/refusal from the SA - I've had them all!
But the bottom line is, you'll earn £5 in points, plus 2 bottles of whatsit, and it'll cost you 2 x 86p = £1.72!!!
Now that's a result. :T I was kindly granted 5 vouchers in total, so did it 5 times, so £25 in points, 10 bottles of stuff, worth £58.60 all for £8.60! A very nice profit of (drum roll)
..................... £75!!:T:T:T:T :j:j:j:j
And you'll get another £5 voucher each time!!!!!!!
There are several Olay items that you can do this with, but the cheapest is:-
Olay Total Effects Cleanser, radiance enhancing cream wash
7-in-1 anti-ageing, with exfoliating micro-beads
I shall probably use it for cleaning other things, like the loo, so it's nice to know I shall have a radiant, anti-aged and thoroughly exfoliated toilet!!! :rotfl:

From the Advantage Card Machine. These look like cash point machines, and are in lots of the Boots branches.
You put your advantage card in, and you'll see on the screen how many points you have. Then you request the offers, and they will be shown on the screen, and you print what you want to.

Hi, It was reported on Tuesday night that the ACM's are no longer giving the 500pts wyb 2 x olay and that a few SA's had refused the use of 2 x £5 off skincare vouchers at once as they had recieved notification from Head Office to only allow the use of one voucher transaction
So you may still get lucky if your SA has not been informed by the management I guess?0 -
