Free boots tampons and pantyliners (Advantage card holders)

The Advantage machine at Boots gave me two free vouchers today - for same day use.

1. A box of 16 Boots brand compact tampons
2. Any boots pantyliners

I know from past threads that the machines have given these out in the past (but not to me!!), so I was delighted. The actual value of the items I chose was just over £3.

Probably like before not everyone will get the same offers, but if you are in need of these type of items it is probably worth a go with the machine somethime soon.

    Love doesn't make the world go round, it's what makes the ride worthwhile

    ya still freezing :p




  • The machine never gave it to me last time - and I can't really SEE the machine so now very rarely use it as the staff are too busy to help, nine times out of ten i hit Boots when the lunchtime rush is on, so i now just forget it and miss out on offers - unless i think any online poitns are comign as you HAVE to use the machine to get those.

    Can't believer I forgot to check the machine as was ABLE TO GET to the Meal Deal stockign branch to PURCHASE ONE today and i know the machines were psewing otu couposn for those but have probably stopped now, the machine isn't near the food bit and i jsut went straight to it. Should have asked the cahier but it was embarrassing enough asking her to check all my food and drink items to ensure id taken the right ones, as the pacaging particulalry on the nuts and raisins is hard to dechiper for me.

    I am a bit gutted, as I have only just started using an advantage card. When I go to the machine the offers I get are rubbish! I hope they improve. IsaidNo.gif

    I have also just found a machine. I go out of my way for it and have used it 5 times so far (to collect .com points). Every time it says "Sorry You have no offers available today" :(

    I didnt even know these machines gave out vouchers, I thought they were just for checking balances - I've got a lot to learn!!
  • Now that there is a trial of talking bank cash machines *two in belfast, one in glasgow* i wonder if there is any way we could get talking advantage points? LOL Boots would never get me off the ruddy thing then!

    Has the meal deal extra points offer ended? I got a 25pt voucher out of the machine yesterday (and have been doing so for many weeks), but none offered to me today. All good things, and all that...

    I Was Offered A 25 Point Coupon From The Machine Today, I Didn't Use It Though. My Total Spend Coupon Has Changed - I Used To Get A 50 Points Coupon For Spending Over £7.50, Now It's 250 Points When Spending £25. I've Never Been Offered Tampons Or Pads - Boohoo!
