I want a camera with a big zoom from boots

Hi,

I have £360 worth of points from Boots, and want to get a really nice digital camera with a big zoom, however these all seem to be online only. Does anybody know if there is any way round the rule that you can only use advantage card points in store. Or if there are any stores that sell a bigger than normal range of cameras?

    You could just use the Advantage points to buy boots stuff and money to buy the camera? Since you'd probably find it cheaper to buy the camera from somewhere other than boots..

    for example the fuji s9500 9MP 10.7X optical zoom is £360 on boots online and £340 on pixmania online (dunno about delivery)

    Kodak Z650 6.1MP 10X OZ is £230 boots online, £190 pixmania

    and remember reviews sites:)

    hmmm good idea, but it would take me years to spend that money at boots other than on a camera. So I guess I'm stuck with waiting until I see a nice one actually in a boots store
