*** but you could buy an item with your points and take it back to different store, without receipt , get the money put onto a gift voucher and then buy formula,, surely??

The devious minds of the Boots thread think alike- I just suggested that on the other thread lolcheepskate wrote:*** but you could buy an item with your points and take it back to different store, without receipt , get the money put onto a gift voucher and then buy formula,, surely??

But as there seem to be restrictions around baby milk I wonder if it would work. As for morals- the intention of the restriction is to comply with rules about never promoting baby milk-and this is within the spirit of that even if its a bit of a long way round.0 -

Yes, I have heard that too. I don't think they are allowed to swap but I know some people have managed to but it depend on who serves you. HTH0 -

U can only exchange without a receipt now they wont put it on a giftcard.:dance: :dance: :dance:0 -
The 200 points voucher out of the current H&B magazine DOES work on the No.7 Sunless Tanning Wipe. I handed in 2 wipes with 2 separate vouchers and they both went through (2 different transactions).
So £1.50 x 2 = £3.00 but I got 400 points. There doesn't seem to be a limit on the amount of magazines per advantage card so I picked up a couple more and plan to get more wipes and points - I do use the wipes anyway, but it looks like I am going to look like I've been away for a fortnight at this rate.

I've always been a bit nervous of applying fake tan to myself after a disastrous You've-Been-Tangoed experience a few years back :eek:
I've heard good things about these wipes though and am tempted to try.. Can you tell me whether just one wipe is enough for coverage all over, or would I need more than one?

Had a quick look at first post but could not find the answer. But when do they stop handing out the skin care/sunglass voucher.
Thanks in advance.
