Hi everyone, I asked yesterday on the board if the points were still working on the FCUK minnies as they worked for me on Tuesday.I got 100 points per minnie using just 1 voucher from AD machine, however it does look as though other offers have been introduced...appreciate hearing from someone.thanks

Hi shrewdal - I'd take the silence to mean that no-one's managed it.

The AC vouchers supposedly change on a Wed. The TS loophole appears to have been closed on Wed.

So I'd imagine that something similar has happened to FCUK?

Why not try it yourself? Get a couple of minis and see if you get the points? Report back if you do! That is of course, unless you get stopped by some crabby SA moaning that the voucher "says it excludes miniatures!"

Can anyone tel me how we find out when there is a triple points day at Boots?
My PAYG is getting a bit low but I don't want to top up until there's a triple points day!

Why not call Boots Customer Care? Refer to the bottom of Post 1 in this thread for the tel no.

If you top up with £10 now, you'll get a £5 skincare voucher, which is a better offer than triple points anyway.

Just been into boots with my mum. She hadn't used her EI voucher, so got about 10 bottles of handwash and body lotion. At the photo counter I told the sa I only wanted it if I was getting points for each purchase. Only got 150 points for the whole lot, so asked for a refund. In the confusion they forgot to ask for the £5 skincare voucher back, so no EI but I'm happy with my free voucher!

Doesn't sound good - that's the first post I've read that suggests Boots have closed the EI loophole.

shopsmile - Did you let the SA put the whole lot thru the till and then present your voucher as normal? Or did they override the points to manually correct the loophole as you seem to be saying you'd already alerted them to it before the transaction started?

Remember - always play dumb!

Vouchers I received today from A/C machine were

100 points off a £15 shop

100 points any Ted baker for men range
100 points any Hackett grooming products - excludes minatures
100 pointsany mark hill shampoo, conditioner, styling products
100 points Lynx click range
100 points TS range - excludes minatures
points off No 7 (sorry cant remenber how many points)
points off No 17 "

No fcuk voucher, no EI vouchers


I spent enough on the mens grooming products to get the £4 off a £10 spend(actual spend £12) and I was able to use 4 x100 vouchers.
Topped up my shopping with some other bits and got another 100 points for spending over £15 and also got the £5 skincare voucher.

The sa put the whole lot through as normal, didn't seem to be doing anything unusual. The voucher was put through at the end but the receipt only gave 150 points plus about 40 for the spend.

It's no good, I've had a look at the top of the thread, and I can't find it... What's the Bodyform offer at the moment?

Bodyform is on offer in Boots (amongst other places) at 99p a pack. A lot of packs can be found with a little pink leaflet stuck on top, giving you a £1 voucher on your next purchase - so effectively free next time.

In fact some MSE'rs have reported being given a penny back by the Boots SAs!!!!
