    For anybody near Darlington...I went in to the big one in the high street and they had quite a few of the Lancaster sun creams in the clearance section for 4.50 each! Just had a look on ebay and they should go for a fiver each = FREE POINTS!!!!

    This has been niggling away at me today and I wondered if I could run it past the good Bootsers on here.....

    My question is....would you rather have the £5 voucher OR the 500 points from .com when you buy said item.

    For example I have been buying things, splitting the purchase into £5 lots to get the voucher which I then "have" to spend on skincare things.... I may not even really want/need the original purchase to get the voucher which then can only be spent on certain things..

    On the other hand, I can go onto .com, make up an order of ...say.....7 items (that I want) with the extra 500 points on each. I have still only spent the same as getting the skincare in store (with the initial purchase of "maybe" not really wanted things), I have still got the skincare I want PLUS I have £35.00 worth + triple spend points to spend on things I really want at a time that suits me....... not by 11 September as on the vouchers

    Does that make sense and does anyone agree with me?? Or am I totally off my trolley???:eek::eek::eek:

    I have also pondered this thought but I would be the kind to get the points and just save them as i HATE spending them now so wouldn't be worthwhile for me..:rotfl:

    - Do the instore triple points start friday or saturday??
