You can cancel it altogether after 12 months if you wish, therefore £360 a year line rental including free mins and free txts = £360 back in points in 7 motnhs time. They do howevers end you your first £10 of points on your card within 7 days of you getting the phone and the remainding £350 on in 7 months after. No doubt you can flog the phone on ebay after your 12 months or keep it on an ongoing contract..whichever you prefer..personally hard cash via ebay..hee-hee

after the 7 months you can also reduce your package down from £30, and therefore make more money, by saving your monthly outgoings.

I got one of the Boots phones in November with 1000 points 7 days after purchase and the promise of 34000 points in month 7, but the SA told me that I had to make sure that I claimed them - they will not be added automatically and they are lost if you don't claim them within month 7.

At last got a reply to my email about not getting a voucher for the chocs and skincare. Lovely people at boots are sending me a £10 gift card. Need to find the best way to spend it now to rack up more points.

buy £10 worth of the 17 loophole for gift bags or party favours or whatever? you get 200 points back per £1.99 spent!

Hiya folks,

Just thought that i'd let you know that i picked up an aerobic stepper in Boots, High Street, Dundee for the pricely sum of 98p but then again it might have been 94p. Had to do a double take at the SEL and get a SA to scan it to make sure but yip the price was correct.

No idea how to get a picture in here so here is a link to a reebok one on the boots site although it was boots own make that i got. Great bargain and well chuffed so another prezzie sorted for me or is it a prezzie for me.

I was told that it was old stock hence them selling it off cheap but it was in the same kind of packaging as the gym balls etc for last christmas.

Hope this helps.

PS Looks like you can check your advantage card balance online now.

The soltan kids suncream @ 2.49 (seen on first page) goes through as BOGOF so effectively £1.25 each !!!!

In my local Boots, they are now reduced to £1.25 and BOGOF, so 63p each! :j

Regarding the Parenting vouchers not always working for everyone (sooz's post)... I think quite a few people have had problems with these! When I got my free No7, it didn't scan either so there was a lot of faffing about, and the result was I didn't get my free gift (this was a few months ago, a different gift then). Anyway, very annoying!

However, I do seem to recall somebody mentioning somewhere (too late for me to remember where or when ) that there is a special way the SAs have to scan the Parenting vouchers in order for them to work. They have to put them through as Boots vouchers or something -- got no idea what the difference is but we all know Boots tills have a life of their own! :rolleyes:

I have yet to find the soltan kids pack and the Avene bag, been to Both East Kiltbride stores, Braehead and Inverness - Has anyone local seen them?

I managed to get the soltan kids pack in the Glasgow Sauchiehall St branch at the weekend. There were 4 left so I took 2 and left the other 2 for someone else.
They were right up at the back on the ground floor.

Haven't seen them anywhere else though.

Talking of Bodyform, they are selling them in Tescos, I used my vouchers yesterday to get money off my shopping. I didn't buy any more coz they were back up to full price 1.49p or something like that. I've got loads so I'll just use up the vouchers getting money off shopping till I've used them all.

I picked up the new Superdrug free mag today (yes I know, fraternising with the enemy!!) and there was an ad stating that from 22nd Feb until 21st March you can buy two packs of Bodyform for £2. May be a way of using up the vouchers if the price goes up at Boots. They were priced at £1.42 today in my Boots and I didn't chance trying to get them for 99p. Got a 17tan wipe and brush though for free! Also bought a kids's sun care kit, I didn't realise they were BOGOF though!!
