    Much to my disappointment my Advantage Card must be on the banned list cos I haven't had any good coupons from it in ages and the cheapest Evening Primrose product is £1.99 around here. But I got my 1 litre bottles of T&G so am happy with those, thanks to the OP for spotting that one - I would never have noticed it.

    Merry Christmas to Boots and all who shop in her...........
  • Had a good shop today.. in 2 transactions i got the following (stupidly forgot to use the double points coupon though :mad:

    BOGOF Boots Spa Shower gel scrub @ £2.99
    2x travel first aid kits (2 seperate 500 point vouchers)
    2x evening primrose shower gels @ £0.99(2 seperate 100 point vouchers)
    2x Everyday Indulgence lotion @ £2.99(2 seperate 150 point vouchers)

    so total spend £ 15.93
    Points total this shop £15.62

    YEAH :j

    I also now have £110.87 to spend in the sales in points !

  • HI, its probably been posted before but I bought the Boots Everyday Indulgence bodywash (also applies to handwash) which is on Bogof for £2.99.

    Get two 150 point coupons, 1 for each bottle from the machine and Boots pay you a penny to take it away :)

    I have never ever had points for a first aid kit boohoo

    Nor me and I tried all four of my cards in several differnt machines in all sorts of Boots from the little one in Crewe to city ones inYork. Desperate for those for stocking fillers for my scouting sons.

    Just my luck to get thme now. Have to start looking now for stocking fillers for next xmas!

    I got points for first aid kit but they were 20 quid - and you get 500 points

    Am I missing something - done very well on Evian stuff though!

    Been to trafford park and spent a few points on clothes for my baby, It was heaving by the time I left!

    Although boots intend you to use the token with the £19.99 kit, it also scans wiith tiny portable first aid kits for £2.49. However, not all the assistants will allow you to do this.

    Not all cards give you the same offers but it's easy to get extra cards, my OH has one he doesn't know about and my non-existent twin has one too - she never buys anything so she often gets better offers and lower total spend offers.She shares my initial so I get to use her vouchers!

    Couldn't resist Boots today, and have to say their sale is fairly good.

    Did the T & G £8.99 bottles again, 2 for £7 (with 100 points off any shampoo) bringing them to down to £6 for 2 litres (may not have bothered with this, as normally buy cheapo shampoo, but the stuff really is good quality and has made a massive difference to my hair (frizzy, thick) so have stocked up

    Also did the cuticura twice (cannot believe they are paying us 71 p to take this away !!!!), evening primrose gift pack (reduced to £3.50 from £7 with a 100 points voucher)

    Also did a Boots 17 purchase (only a fiver now to get the bag) but with triple points and a voucher for £1.50 could not resist BUT beware, they had loads of sparkly bracelets (reduced to 99p) good for the kid's party presents, but these do not count as cosmetics, so they did not qualify towards the fiver.

    Also bought (seperate shop) about 5 kid's games half price £3.50 and £4 for £7 and £8, with the 200 points for a £20 spend. Again, great for anyone whose kids go to a lot of parties (i have got 4 children, so my party present bill could run into the hundreds given the "invite the whole class syndrome")

    Word of warning though, when not all my vouchers went through the young and lovely assistant was pounced upon by an battleaxe supervisor who said "you are trying to use too many vouchers" (my no.7 gift set, reduced to £7.50, for which i had a £1.50 (machine) and a £2.50 (red gift bag) off, refused to give me either voucher back, saying "you have had a good shop, now be satisfied with what you have got" (paraphrased).

    Bah Humbug !
