Hi fellower Bootster. I emailed Boots customer service about the Christmas Events and was told that they will be having the 1200 points for every £50 spent on boots.com, on the following days:

10th-11th of November
24th-25th of November

The 1200 points for every £50 spent offer does not start until 3pm

Hope this helps, I know I already have a list of things to buy :T

  • Thanks Rince!

    The 10% discount code should still be valid with this event on 12th Nov.

    Although that would be the 2nd day of the Event and, by then everything is likely to be out of stock again!
  • :) Thanks for the reminder! Only need a "few" more points before I can "buy" the Fitflop Boots I have been after since the weather turned cold :beer:
    :p

    Unless they've specified that they will be running it at different times online to the instore events, you may have your dates wrong I'm afraid. Ad Card evenings have always been on Wednesdays and Thursdays i.e 10th-11th and 24th-25th November would make more sense.

    The website confirms the dates for the next evenings as Weds 10th and Thurs 11th November (enter your post code on this page). The offer usually runs at the same days online as it does in store.

    Morning,

    All I can say is I emailed customer service and copied the text into this thread, so all i'm telling everyone is that these are the dates Boots gave me for the online event.:)

    I have just emailed boots back to ask why there is a difference in online and store events. Thanks for pointing it out. Cheers.

    You can go instore and order them for delivery either to home or store and pay with points.

    Thats at least two of us which are doing that with fitflop boots!

    Had a card through post today confirming instore and online dates as the 10th/11th November (so I think its safe to imply that the next will be 24th/25th).
    I think the explanation is that you were emailed by an xmas temp :)...bless

    This is a separate offer, and deserves its own thread really, if one hasn't been started already. The £50 increments can be spent on anything instore (subject to normal exclusions)...this is not an xmas 3for2 exclusive - the ad in the Metro is just advertising that the xmas 3for2 is one of the many offers available that you can take advantage of.

    Hi, I've just had a phone call from Boots customer service who confirmed the dates are Wednesday 10th Nov, Thursday 11th Nov and 24th-25th November. I'll amend the first post. Sorry for the confusion, I agree Muffin_Man, must have been a Christmas temp !! Cheers.
  • I received a card through the post today confirming events at -
    Donegal Place, Belfast, Thursday 11th November, 3-10pm
    Boucher Crescent, Belfast, Wednesday 10th November, 3-10pm &
    Sprucefield Shopping Centre, Lisburn, Thursday 11th November, 3-10pm

    £12 worth of points for every £50 spent.
