    I actually think you get better vouchers if you don't use your Adv card much - work that out! It's a bit like all the new deals out there you can only get if you're a new customer. When they know they've 'got you' you're no longer of interest to them!

    Even if I'm on the shopping threads, it doesn't mean I'm buying! Sometimes it's good to just look and then hit the CLOSE button!

    Just been out to the largish Boots near me looking for the Beauty BRUSHES but could not get any. I took my DD's card and got 2 Time Delay vouchers each. Got 4 Facial Wipes for £1.99 each and 800 points back.! Then went back to ACM machine and it gave me and her another one each so I got another wipes and some facial wash. Total Spend 19p!!!

    I have 4 of my family members advantage cards who are newly registered and they all get 10% off shampoo, shower gel/bubble bath or deodrants whereas I get the 25% off vouchers so I don't think it has anything to do with new customers. It must just be randomly selected.

    Yes it does - I got one, and a toner, and 2 packs of wipes. Look out for till spits as well - I got one for 10% off time delay that can be used with the 200pts one AND it deducts 10% of the original price - so I got one of the wipes for £1.59. It's making me think that perhaps they are planning to discontinue the Time Delay range as they seem to be trying to get rid of it? They only changed the packaging last year so surely they cant be doing it again?

    Hi all, got 2 vouchers out of the ACM for 200 points when you buy any time delay skincare product. Most of the range is currently half price so I picked up a pack of wipes for £1.99 and an exfoliator for £2.24 - I had to put them through separately but it worked no problems - £4.23 of goods and £4 of points back on my card...simples!


    Don't want to be a complete bar humbug, but Boots did not pay you to take their wipes away . You paid them 24p. Not a great deal of money, but you still paid them.

    Your title is very misleading. In fact it is a lie. Simples.

    I was thinking the same because it only seems a little while back they changed the packaging as you say:(I got a load really cheaply in my little Boots when they changed it:)

    I know the above should probably best be ignored but in fact OP is correct, boots are paying you a penny to take wipes away. She chose to pay 24p because she bought another, more expensive product as well as wipes.

    And it's bah humbug.
