    Thanks for this. A lot of the lower priced items have gone but I bought things I will use. (a little unlike me!!)

    I placed two orders to maximise the points.

    Order 1
    Dior lip balm £23
    Dior mascara £20
    No7 nail polish £6
    No7 eyeliner £6.50
    No7 perfect lips GWP
    Body spray 89p
    Nivea GWP (no idea what this is!)
    Total spend £56.39
    Total points 2974

    Order 2
    Elizabeth Arden cleanser £17
    Elizabeth Arden lipstick £19.50 (extra 500pts)
    Elizabeth Arden GWP
    Philosophy Purity £9
    This Works Dream Team £10
    Total spend £55.50
    Total points 3219

    I think a few of the bits will go into my Xmas stash - that way I won't feel like I've just spent £100 on makeup/toiletries!!

    Thank you OP.
    Worked for me last night I eventually managed to get 10 nail varnish costing 5.00 each (they kept disappearing out of my basket) total cost £50.00 total points collected 4750 for my xmas shopping and the nail varnish will be an extra addition to my xmas hampers.

    Which nail varnishes were they? This seems like an amazing deal!

    It's the Orly ones (£5 each and 750 points for each two you buy, plus the extra 1000 points with the code)

    I am hoping for restocks asap....

    I noticed the Dior 1000 pts for 2 eligible purchases does not multiply if you buy 4 so if buying more than 2 Dior, separate orders would be better I think, but not tried it... yet!!

    I think Boots must have barred me from their website.
    I tried to put these nail varnishes in my basket last night.
    Literally tried every single colour.
    Not one ended up in my basket.

    I put up to £200 worth of stuff in basket, but still couldn't get any 'glitchy' points.
    Oh well, I probably didn't need them anyway - but would have been great for Xmas pressies for Nieces and God daughters.

    I got it working finally!

    ...then the site went down......

    Now one of my items is OOS and I don't want to buy something else for the sake of it *hrmph*

    Here's hoping the eye make-up remover is back in soon!

    confused, there are two lipsticks I want but I getting 1959 points off a £52 spend which doesn't seem as much as others have managed. Am I forgetting something, have put in the 1000 points for £50 spend

    Did you manage to get it to work?

    If not post a link and we can try switching the basket to see if it makes a difference.

    I know Boots are good at removing points when you return things but this Dior promotion and 750 points for premium beauty, is it running in store too? A lot of stuff is out of stock online so I'd want to attempt a exchange in colour in store but I'm wondering if that will mess up my points.
