I'm very new to the Boots AC (only got it two days ago )

Dashed in to Boots to see what cool freebies I could get from the machine and - zippo Was expecting to get those lovely mediterranean freebies everyone mentioned :rotfl: Had offers for 100 points or 150 points if I bought suntan lotion. (I've got enough suntan lotion to last me the next 2 years, courtesy of Superdrug and my 10%-off vouchers:p )

Anyhow, did a bit of shopping and got double points using the little voucher that had come in the same pack as my card. Yay!

Went back to the machine expecting some kind of miracle having got 100 points onto my card. Alas, nothing had changed.

:rotfl: Was I being daft and way too optimistic? Am I a Boots Bimbo? (no, don't answer that ) Or do I have to accumulate loads of points before getting those AC machine freebies?

It takes time for the points to show onscreen as boots are slow! Also you will get much better offers/freebies once you've used the card a few times and shopped using it. You could get a few more cards eg mum/dad/hubby/friebd etc and try each one at boots I often get 3 freebies or more. Good luck! Another tip is to print anything useful at one boots and if you cannopt use it try any other boots you are near. I often do this.

You're right - I got the free Mediterranean thing and the wet wipes, I also used my points to buy lunch on two consecutive occasions, but now since I haven't actually spent money in Boots for a while, they have severly slashed my Advantage Card goodies! Now everytime I look for my vouchers, all I get is a screen telling me that there's up to 50% off garden furniture!

They aren't daft at the Boots-camp, so I suppose I'd better buy something in there at some stage if I want to start benifitting again!

Thank you so much for replying to me surfsister :)

As I had written that post on 9th July and hadnt had any response I was beginning to think nobody could be bothered.

Many thanks. You have motivated me to give my Boots AC a good workout:rotfl: and I shall certainly take your advice about getting cards for the rest of the family.

Cheers Have a fantastic day and hope many freebies come your way!:j
