Lakeside is tomorrow night :j I might see if I can top-up phones at the same time! do you have to visit a kiosk a few days after to get your points? Or does it get automatically added to your card?

Points earned instore are added to your card immediately.

for those that have shopped online when the christmas event is on, does the stuff sell out quickly? (probably toys would?) is it worthwhile waiting up and going on after midnight tonight? I have a massive list and would be annoyed if it all sold out!!

thanks!

According to the terms and conditions that angeluk2 posted up yesterday you have to collect the points 5 working days after the event at the ACM machine. Its probably to stop people getting points on the night then using them to buy something straight away instead of spending more money!

Yep, I did wonder that, but it doesn't say anything online, just the dates? might phone up Boots and ask...

Edit to add - just called and the woman wasn't sure! just said it will be definitely be online from 3pm, but she thought it should be all day. Guess i'll just check after midnight tonight.

Sorry to snip, but those are the T&C'S for the online points events where points have to be collected instore. For the instore events points will be added to cards immediately in the normal way.
