have gone a few pages back and not seen. selected boots stores have recycling machines where u get 10 points per item recylced with a barcode . includes plastic bottles and cans, says glass aswell. up to 250 points per visit. My store when i asked said i could do multiple transactions per day its just 25 items per receipt but i wouldnt want to chance my luck too much - 2 pound 50 a day is fine .prints out like a coinstar and u take it to till with boots card for points. For me i think im gonna aim for this to cover some xmas pressies and hopefully any medicine etc over winter months£365 a year spend challenge - this has included food/clothes/beauty?? who knows where I am
