    I've never received a boots mailing, despite the fact I have had an AC for over a year.

    Did everyone get their points eventually after the glitch where they were taking ages to be added? After waiting nearly a month (numerous emails and 2 phone calls) I now have twice the amount pending!

    Not sure what to do now! Now that they're pending does that mean they're mine?

    Went to boots today to buy a pack of huggies with the parenting club £1 off, also got another changing bag voucher (?) so got one of those, too. Also purchased 2 blitex, used £10 voucher from pigsback Came up to £9.96 and I received the £5 No7 voucher :confused: I thought it was for a £10 spend, so well chuffed.

    I also have a £1.50 off huggies voucher which is restricted to size 1 and 2, which is useless, as my baby wears size 4!, so I wondered if I could get size 1 for instance, use the vouchers, then exchange it for size 4 at a later date?

  • Apologies if this has been posted before but there is a 100pt coupon in the AC machine for Boots Own Brand Hair Dye. These are currently on offer at £1.69 for semi-permanant or £1.99 for permanant. With the 100pts it means you effectively get a hair dye for under a quid :T :T

    Also the double points voucher I have can be used in conjunction with the time delay voucher
    I think you won't get 2x700 points, just normal points (4 points for every 1£ x 2), because these points, like "buy sth and get 700, 1000 etc" works like offer points and sadly they are added once, no matter triple points weekends, double points coupons etc. :(

    I think you should try - because the coupons on the receipt are shown as "Boots coupon" and £1,50 is deducted on the end of receipt, so SA shouldn't know what it was used for.
