    I went in to buy a camera today, £99 on the web site but it doesn't say "online only" so I assumed it would be the same price instore but it was actually £109. SA checked with somebody and said that was the correct price...I wanted to buy it with my points so it looks like I'm out of luck unless anyone else knows any better?

    I was looking at cameras online last week and also noticed that most of them were more expensive in store. I agree it doesn't say "online only". Like jaymac, I wanted to buy with points. Guess I will have to wait a bit longer.

    Yes this should work no problem - these type of offers usuually do. Thats why we end up with all these lovely points ! I might do it myself- although Im not too keen on the no.7 mascaras. Will have a look at the machine to se if any other points on No.7 products. I havent ben to boots for ages- today was the first time for about 3 weeks, so glad it was a good trip. I have seriousily cut down from my once a day boots fix ;)

    I remember reading a while ago something like this:

    1.Buy item ( eg camera!) online & pay by credit card or whatever.
    2.Return item to store for refund.
    3. Ask to buy back item with points

    Don't know if it would work for you but I thought it worth mentioning.

    I actually think that the person who did this wanted to buy something that was just for sale online and not instore..........

    hi chelle - yes - I joined my OH up and we both get the vouchers!!

    I thought that Boots had recently changed their policy to one application per household?:confused:

    Worth a try anyhow - you have nothing to lose!:beer:

    it does state 1 application per household - you still get the packs though as they do not keep track of this!!

    Today in boots this glitch: There is currently a voucher in the ACM for 200 pts when you buy BOOTS eye drops, any drops except antibiotic ones. This range is currently BOGOHP.
    I bought 2 eye brightening/soothing drops for £2.69 and £1.34HP. The glitch is giving you 200 pts for each item, so I paid 3p for 2 lots. Handy to have in in the hayfever season.

    I had the points coupon out of the machine,but it would not scan at all,and i bought the right items.:mad:
