    There was a coupon in Saturdays Daily Telegraph Magazine for 500 Advantage Card Points when you purchase any ROC products which at the moment have 1/3 off.

    It states the offer excludes wipes and cleansers but as we have found before with coupons from the AC machine sometimes we get points for these anyway.

    The thing is the ROC products cost upwards of £13!!! The wipes are £3.99.
    I'm asuming that you would get points for each purchase in the one transaction but I've only one coupon so I can't go mad with this incase it doesn't work and I have to ask for a refund.

    Is it worth the hassle? Has anyone else tried this?

    PS There is no online code.
    Smile and be happy, things can usually get worse!
  • Boots At The Present Time Are Giving A £10 Electrical Voucher If You Spend £15 Or More In The Store.

    You Can Only Use The Voucher On Certain Brand Names. I Managed To Find A Braun Men's Shaver - Costing £11.99 - The Shop Assistant Seemed Very Surprised - It Appears This May Be One Of The Things That Slipped Through The Net.

    Total Cost Of A Braun Battery Operated Shaver Is £1.99.

    My local store had the T & G hair straighteners reduced to £15, I'm hoping there's some left at lunchtime as I've now got a voucher from a boots.com order :D

    on the advantage card machine in weston super mare was a voucher for 150 points for each botanics item purchased, tried to print it out and all i kept getting was a blank piece of paper, told a member of staff who also tried but nothing would come out of machine, she said i couldnt have the points without the voucher, so i bought the items anyway, 4 bottles of make up remover which i normally buy (2.99) and 3 packs of wipes (99p each) and i called them today and they have added 7 x 150 points to my card. so watch out for this one as we gain on the wipes

    Hi Burnham - pooped into boots today and could not see the wipes at 99p what kind of wipes are they? The only wipes I could see were £2 odd but it was quite a small Boots.

    Thanks

    Botanics quick fix cleansing wipes, packet about 3" x 5" and they are very good, they take off my waterproof make up remover and are good to carry at work.
    Packet is milky green in colour. Hope this helps you find them.
