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.

I cheated too and used my double points coupon!!:T

Wish I got sent things like that, I get my parenting club vouchers (and now the health club vouchers) and that's it and I'm down for mailing. I don't seem to get much out of the acm either, Boots really aren't consistant are they?

I love pixifoto, they have always taken beautiful pics of DD. She won the beautiful baby contest with them when she was 6 months old and she had a certificate and we were sent the picture 40x60 and framed - proud moment.

Try applying for a new card in your OH (or DD/DS) name? Then you get a double points coupon which is not card specific IYSWIM.

ALways handy to have a spare AC

Thanks for help everyone, so far going to try clinique oily soap bar, possibly give p&p a go too and now need a toner and moisturiser. Dior, origins, Estee lauder and biotherm all have extra points online, can anyone recommend products from them - going to treat myself.

I cant recommend any of their moisturisers or toners but can recommend some other products.
Estee lauder ( remember their £4.99 sharpners will get you points too )- idealist serum is FANTASTIC but dear .It is brilliant for all skin types especailly open pores.It leaves your skin silky smooth & you use it under moisturiser,If you are to buy 1 estee product I would recommend this.
Highily recommend is their Advanced night repair (again dear but great results ).Their lucidity powder is fantastic makes your skin lovely & soft plus gives a great coverage.I also love their pure colour lipsticks.Foundations are good too.However if you can get in store their gwp has an advanced repair serum in it ( free with 2 purchases or people are selling it on ebay too )
Dior They do a cleansing glee which acts as a toner & cleanser and its quite good.Their best product in my opinion is the diorflash concealer which is great.Their r60/80 eye cream is good as I believe thier r60/80 moistuiser is meant to be great too.Diorlash mascara is good. Their nail varnishes are tosh so dont waste your money on them - chip non stop.
Biotherm- have never used thier products or origins but I do know origins have varied opinions.Try www.makeupalley.com for reviews on products you are thinking about.Mostily americans but loads of reviews-it might save you money.

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

Love it! I wish they were higher up though, to cater for those of us who despite being birds are not short.

I have been using no7 hydroquench sauna mask for a week now and I have seen a difference in my skin, it makes it nice and smooth and minimises the pores.

Got that last time it was on a silly offer. Will give it a try soon!
