Can someone please confirm that you can get a Boots magazine more than once per advantage card? I'd quite like another Botanics voucher so I can get more free wipes before the £2.50 vouchers expire.

In just about every store in the country you can get another magazine when you go through the tillagain, every store that is except Crewe

Does anyone know what the next promo will be? I have no vouchers left so am excitedly waiting for whats coming up next! I'm sure someone said about a Mother's Day promo?

Can someone explain the charcoal masks thing to me please? Seeming as how many you got free?

SoozyJ22

The charcoal masks are £1.79 each - so £3.58 for two

minus £2.50 skincare voucher leaves £1.08.

To get 18 that's 9 transactions, paying £9.72 in real money.

However ... I had 5 x 200 point vouchers, and 6 x 100 point vouchers from the ACM. 5 x 200 + 4 x 100 points = £14.00 worth of points.

So really they've paid me £4.28 to take them all away!

I still have a couple of the ACM vouchers left, but of my local Boots stores, one doesn't stock the skincare range and the other has run out of the nice new sachets and only has old ones - and since I want to group these in threes as presents, I'm off to another store tomorrow to hopefully buy some more!

Ahh, I was told the 200p voucher doesn't work with the sachets, why i've staved off getting them, Just counted my vouchers - 26 single vouchers! Going to stock up on things like facemasks and do a big shop - romford are still denying they know when the ACM machines will be fixed, and told me to go to customer services, and they tell me to ask in store, getting ridiculous!

If anyone is still looking for boots mags with the botanics vouchers there is loads in Newcastle Staffs.

And a lot of the chocs have been reduced int here too.

I have two mens vouchers and 1 womans voucher left. Hubby doesn't use shaving foam, and everything else is shaving this or that. Will just leave it in store. Hope to get the lip balm or another botanics wipes next time I'm in!

Does anyone remember the contents of the 'change one thing' booklets and the expiry dates? I know they are around the house somewhere, but I don't want to start the mad hunt if they've expired already!

The ACM didn't say 'no sachets' on the screen, so I was merrily using the vouchers on sachets and it wasn't until I used a couple that I realised that it said on them that they couldn't be used with sachets. No SAs have ever had a problem with putting them through - I don't think any of them even read them!

Put them on ebay for a couple of extra pennies towards your next purchase off there?

As for vouchers - all SAs I come across read them intensievely!

I know some of them expired at the end of Jan. I finally found a Time Delay starter kit today and ripped the voucher out of the booklet in store only to discover it had expired when SA tried to put it through! Used the £2.50 voucher though so still not a bad deal.
