    Saw this today - this is what the new ACM machines will look like! Should be appearing in stores in August - I hope they have decent offers in! http://www.designweek.co.uk/Articles/134906/Boots.html

    They look great....if you are a women. Because men never use these machines do they? (funny how the photo was taken next to the mens toiletries section!!) :rolleyes:

    I printed out 5 *500 points when you spend £20 or more on no7???? why are the ACM offers so random??? - some get more some get less offers???........

    Is no7 still on 342??? ..... could i get a no7 product worth £20 use £5 parenting voucher+500 points voucher and still claim the free 'gift set'????

    Still not sure what to get with the free 'sensitive' voucher - will see tomorrow.
    What have you guys been getting with it - any recommended products???

    THANKSXX!!

    342 was still on in my store today. I posted this earlier on this morning. Mind you, I only got 300 points for a £20 spend on No 7.

    Hi guys,off topic I know but has anyone had their advantage card removed from their .com account?I looked at mine today and I had a message that it had been removed because it was associated with an other email address.I rung them as I do only have one card and one account and they reinstated it for me.The cs said they had run a program last night to weed out anyone using mulitple accounts to gain advantage points.Has this happened to anyone else?

    I checked my account after reading this and saw the same message. I am guilty of having other accounts, which I used to order p&p. I have just re-entered my advantage card number on the only account I will be using from now on.

    I got about 8 metro vouchers - my trains were delayed, overhead failure got me stuck at romford, then stratford signal failure on the underground, THEN suspicious package at loughton station! A normal 35 min jouney's just taken me 2 hours!

    I got mines in Glasgow so it,s nationwide. If you board a train in Glasgow and pick up a Metro then get off in London, Boots is still Boots:D

    Re: the Free Revlon mascara voucher in today's Metro

    Anyone tried this today with whatever's cheapest? Online the Colourstay soft & smooth lipstick is half price, down to £3.99... anyone know if this is the same in store

    *kicks self for not having realised about the voucher before i went to lunch*

    Poor me!!! Seen the metro in the bus on the way back home. But too tired to pick one. Now felt sorry for myself about losing this offer.

    Hi, I don't know if this has ever been posted or if it is the same in every store but I went to pick up the photos we had done through Pixifoto of my little one today and had to pay through the till and I got AC points for them (I cheated and got a total spend voucher out of the acm).

    I ended up with all the photos (they really know how to get you when showing you gorgeous photos of your baby) and 840 points for £145 spend. I know it's not much but if you're willing to spend that sort of money it's nice to have something extra back. That'll do for nappies for a month.

    Hope this helps someone.
