  • Put your card in the machine and take a look at the offers- it will be there. I can understand why Little Miss Cheap is keeping quiet due to her card being in quarantine!! If you read other threads several stores have stoped their cucumber offer due to people, in their opinion (didnt say it was mine before anyone leaps on me!!) abusing the offer.

    The thing is though, these offers are there, you just need to look. A lot of us hve been getting lotsof Boots points for ages!! ;)

  • Hi All,

    Remember what I said about offers just jumping out in front of me - oh dear, well I have just spotted another gob-smacking deal, only I am gonna keep scthum with this one as I want it to be on and not withdrawn when I get my card back in Dec!

    How do you know this offer will still be available in December though? You could miss out as will the rest of us.

    If it's gobsmacking - it's got to be obvious and therefore easy to spot - and for more points per item than its worth. e.g the cucumber soap or toe seperators.
    Never argue with an idiot. He will bring you down to his level and beat you with experience.

    Went to my local Castlepoint in Bournemouth... and lots of soap ;D

    Went to the machine no voucher :(

    Think its all over.

  • Sorry to tease all so, meant to keep it under the lid as it was similar to the additional 10% deal that came ...and went ....recently - its not a legit offer, more a loophole which is why so worried about divulging over web and encouraging non-legit activities! :-X

    Wanted to divulge at the weekend via pms to people on this thread but I think someone has 'a valid point' when they asked how do you know it will be around in december? :-/

    Well it started only yesterday, I think, so I figured it'd be around - it still is excpet the loophole part of it has been plugged so not as good now. :-[

    It was lancome - maybe it still works for some as was accidentally giving double points so 1000 per product - coupled with normal points and points on total spend it worked out as near profit-zilch-90% for labeled stuff! ::)

    Anyway, here's a little something so that you don't banish me forever.... ;D

    For anyone that bougt the Nivea gift set, don't wait till xmas to open up - carefully open up and you will find a golden ticket...sorry a £1.00 off nivea for men voucher but us boots tarts all know that this range is on a reduced offer at the mo so yuo get £3.89 say, reduced to £2.84 less £1 - £1.84 but the till automatically deducts the saving after the price so comes up at £1.13
    :o
    Now add that to the nivea gift bag instead of the voucher! ;D

    This works coz voucher only has an end date in 2005 some time but not a start date so they have to let you have the discount now. ;)

    Many thanks for this. Was this online or in-store and which Lancome products in particular?

  • ANY lancome skincare mens/womens - online ! :-/


    ps seemed a bit temperamental works better over £130 can always go back down later.
  • Yup checked this out in store - 1000 points on any 2 products except skincare gift sets. I'll be passing as it's not cheap by anymeans.

    Thanks all the same anyway.

    Had to wait for the machine today - woman in front had option on Toni and Guy - but I didn't. >:(

    Was going to buy some too. Maybe its because Im not female. >:(
