    Went into Boots today and used the machine, but this offer didn't come up for me.
  • I went into Boots today and used the advantage points machine to see what offers were there.
    I went to the 'view all offers' to seek some coupons for my up and coming expensive shop (the recent offers have been rubbish!) and to my suprise and delight Boots had coe up trumps with these:

    Free Box of 12 Boots tampons
    Free pack of Boots pantyliners (no size stated)
    Free pack of Boots ultra pads (no size stated)

    All one after another!!!

    I picked the most expensive ones I could find and it worked :0)

    The offer does disappear once you have printed the tokens but I saved about a fiver!
    Hope the offer is still on tomorrow.

    I have been into 3 different boots branches this week to see if i can get this - the first two said Sorry no offers available!! When i clicked on all offers. The last branch gave me two offers - 50 points on some hair stuff and something else i can't remember. This is crazy! I normally get at least 15 offers and usually a total spend points one.
    The fact there were no offers at all for my card when other people are getting completely free products is mildly annoying to say the least! Since i buy stuff in boots pretty much every week maybe i spend too much and they feel they don't need to persuade me to buy their products!

    Has anyone else come across this at an advantage card machine - simply not getting any offers or only getting 1 or two come up?

    Thanks!

    Yes I have - thought the machines were broke! Usually get shedloads, but last time I put my card in, all I got was a voucher for extra points on a total spend and about 50 points on expensive dandruff shampoo. That was it. No laydeeeeees things for me :-(

    I actually got some vouchers from Boots through the post today. One was a Double Points voucher and one was a voucher for a free pack of tampons.:j

    Don't give up hope if you haven't managed to get the offer from the machines instore!

    I had to go 18 miles to get to a advantage machine and I could not see the offer for free saintary towels ;(

    Just glad that it was not a special journey so nothing lost.

    I complained to boots about the lack of machines in my area. And they said that they are hoping to put a machine in all boots stores at some stage.

    How long is anyones guess :confused:

    Yours

    Only one voucher for Boots Ultra Towels in Tamworth store yesterday. Better than nothing though.

    It is listed under the 'Show Offers' bit. You probably wouldn't miss it - it clearly says free towels etc. Each offer is listed on a separate screen.

    From other posts, it seems that not everybody is being offered this one. I managed to pick my free items up today. I also got a voucher through the post so have got 4 free so far! :beer:
