You get 100 points voucher from the AC machine for essential aromatheraphy. There is a pillow mist at £1 apparentily and some people have tried them with minatures but not sure if this worked, QUOTE]

So far I've bought 2x pillow mist and 3x mini bath products from the essential aromatheraphy range. The 100points did not work on any of the above. I had a real battle with the SA, who did'nt want to give me the points, but as it DOESN'T say on the voucher you cannot use when buying mini products, she gave me the points in the end...albeit very reluctantly. She had to put them on manualy. I haven't been back to my local store since. I am so well known there (for all the wrong reasons) I don't know If i can face going back...I'm sure I will though...when I'm feeling brave enough:D

Same here, dreading going in again. I am just wondering wether I ought to pluck up the courage and actually go to and get my coupons from the machine and then take them to the other local Boots who are lovely. I've had coupons refused for every spurious reason possible.

It says to leave it on for 5 minutes. The first time I used it I chickened out and only left it for 3 mins...but went for the full 5 mins yesterday. No redness for me at all, but obviously we are all different so you might get the flushed look. The instructions recommend using it in the evening (incase you do go red I guess?) And it says to use sun protection of 15 SPF or above afterwards as your skin will be more sensitive to sunlight damage.

I knew all that BOGOF/3for2 NO7 SPF 15 and 25 Facial suncare cream would come in handy one day

Sounds like a good idea to me. I wish I had other stores to go to. Only one Boots in my town. I will have to wait until I'm in London again at the weekend.

Snow...what's that then? Good weather here for a trip to boots to find some of those elusive mags with botanics vouchers.

If you are still looking for vouchers then on my last visit to my local Boots (Thursday - I am trying to keep away!) they had loads of mags. I am going again today and will post later today/tommorrow if I have any more, happy to post these out.

Hi

I only got my first advantage card this morning, so bear with me if this is a stupid question....

Online there is 500 points if you buy 2 of these items -> http://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1071708&classificationid=1044411&slmRefer=000

As it's double points online, does that mean that you'll get 1000 points for a £10 spend (making these items technically free)?

Thanks

Ooo if that works thats cool!

Tho the double points T&C bit says:

Offer cannot be used in conjunction with certain other boots.com offers.

...

hmmm i saw that too. Maybe it's purposefully ambiguous to put people off!!

I think whenever it's double / triple points, you don't get the 'bonus' points doubled/tripled...only the regular "4 points per £".
