i think there is someone floating around on MSE with about £700 worth on their card - i can remember seeing their total and nearly having heart attack - i go into a panic now when i go into town as i would never carry around 241 of cash on me which is effectively what i'm doing with the card in my bag! :eek:

I agree - I nearly have heart failure if I accidently misplace my card! I'd like AC to be chip and pinned for security.

Or maybe a special online store where you can spend points only. Like the old Green Shield Stamp shops (oooh age showing) except online (and without all that licking :rotfl: )

Sorry another question - I understand you get 1 point for 25p spend but how much is a 1 point worth when I spend it 1p?

each point is worth a penny and you can spend your points on most items, instore next to the price tag it will have a little blue star if you can pay with points, you do have to pay the whole balance of the item with points

don't forget they've changed the rules so if you spend £1 you get 4 points - if you spend 99p you get.........NO POINTS!!!!!
and when redeeming 1 point = 1p!;)

great ideas - but far too sensible for our beloved boots! (i remmeber licking the stamps as well - but they were from the co-op - are they the same things?)

Just phoned customer services to find out when my local Boots will get more of the No7 GWP in, only to find out that they won't!! There aren't any more for them to order in! And my local Boots said they sold out within a day

I missed out and I really wanted one, just didn't manage to get there on the day the offer started!

Oh thanks I did not realise that. Could the clever one who does the front page up date that bit for the newbies (who will hopefully read it before asking questions). I now intend to go to town after lunch but don't have high hopes about them being in stock now

with lots of things explained there.

Hi Not posted here for a while, now have time to boots again!!
I often find trying the smaller stores (off the beaten track) you will find they have GWP left over, worth a look if you don't have to travel far!!
