The mediterranean stuff seems to be BOGOF..I got 2 thyme rosemary face masks yesterday for 50p....A few things were reduced so it's not a bad price.

If I apply online for a cards i.e. for my Mum can I put my address down for her card?

The site seems more down than up these days aswell. Just tried to get into it and it says it's down again

My daughter and I have cards at the same address. Never had a problem. I also have a card at my mums address....used her details but my initial......you never know if a jobsworth may check. I have never been pulled for using other named coupons with my card.

Quick question, not got time to trawl through.

If I have two ADV cards and only one is giving out the ei voucher, can I use that voucher with the other card (which didn't give voucher) to get points..or are the Boots machines clever enough to know that the vouchers are card specific?

I want to get points up on one card only but I ain't getting the voucher with that card.

thanks

For example:

add on a bar of chocolate or something to take it over the £10 and then get the £5 skincare voucher and the 99p choc voucher.

You only get one EI voucher (some haven't had any!) so make sure the Boots your in sells before you print the voucher from the ACM

Im going to try this today as boots have recently sent me a new copy of an old card i had years ago which is in my maiden name, very strage as I didnt request it, i had forgotten about it but as my new card wont give me an EI voucher Im hoping my old one will :j
Fingers crossed

The body wash and hand and body lotion are only £1.99 so still a bargain, i got a mix of each 14 in total. Total spend £12.94 received 2100 points.

Haven't heard anything about it - the offer has only just started, hasn't it? Was it someone who works for Boots who know all about when offers on the AC Machine end?

on line says

Most of these offers run from Wednesday 1st February - Tuesday 28th February 2006 unless otherwise stated.

and nothing stated against it

Lovely SA pointed out that several items of Hard Candy cosmetics had been reduced, most to less than half price, and the till still takes off £5.00 when you buy two items (part of the Karen Millen, Hard Candy, Urban Decay £5.00 off when you purchase any two items offer). Yippee, dd1 is very happy with me!

Also tried the £5.00 skincare voucher with some reduced Avene sun lotion (white box, v high factor for children), the SA said she thought that it might not work, but she'd try as often these offers had glitches (!), and yippee, two bottles of sun stuff that should have been about £10.00 each, but were reduced to £4.74, for free!

Also got the Trevor Sorbie men's hair glosser stuff (grey tube, old style - careful, there is a new one out at full price) for 99p (mentioned somewhere earlier in the thread - so thanks to the OP) and used the 100 point voucher from the AC machine.

DH says I must not go to Boots this weekend! But am going shopping with SIL - he he!

Re the EI handwashes - they are NOT all £1.66 - I was charged £1.66 for the honey & almond but £2.49 for the Honeysuckle & Gardenia (didnt think too much of the other fragrances!!) - thought I would point this out, still a cracking offer though!!!
