    Boots at Chelmsford today gave me the classic 150-125-100 point vouchers for the cucumber stuff.

    I did a trial run with 5 bars of soap (60p each) and got 5x150=750 points for spending £3!

    Apols for a newbie question. If I want to use this trick, would I need to print 6 x 150 vouchers and then use them for 6 transactions?

    Nightmare.

    Had some friends stop overnight Friday. They were going shopping locally Saturday morning and Boots was mentioned for loads of Clarins stuff. Offered use of my card (as I was going out) so I'd be getting mega points as she was going to be spending £100+.

    Got home - no sign of my card. T'other half didnt have it.

    Phoned friends ups - sure enough they've took it with them back to Swindon (2 hours away). To make matters worse, our friend spent £125 and DIDNT use my card.

    Argggghhhhhh

    Got to rely on the good old Post Office now for her to send it back by. Took the card number in case it doesnt turn up.

    Never ever again. >:(
    Never argue with an idiot. He will bring you down to his level and beat you with experience.

    You only need one voucher. Just give them the voucher once they have scanned in all your stuff, the vouchers gets multiplied by the number of things you got!!!!!!!!

  • Thats why I dont tend to let my favouriet Blue and White Piece of Plastic *aka the BOOTS ADVANTAGE CARD* out of my sight - it was only given to my father when he took the digital camera back because if he couldnt get the olympus he wanted hed have to get a refund then would need to take eight quid worth of poitns off me! luckily retail park had the olympus in stock so as it was a straight exchange points untouched, lol.

    my two grandmothers and my mother dont have a card, one grandmother ALWAYS gets the receipts validated, the other one SOMETIMES gets them validated and the mother NEVER gets them validated - she lost me about forty poitns on thursday as she bought hitngs in boots, it was tripled but i lost out coz she didnt get receipt validated sigh. the grandparents dont buy that much in boots and my mother only buys what tescos dont have so no need for any of them to have cards - i always phone me mum up on me mobile before i leave boots check she not need anything, she always says no i dont need anything, then sometimes she goes to boots without ME and without a card then loses out, sigh. if she needs a right shedload out of boots i always make sure im in two to get points and as mum can read the machine properly unlike me make sure we check the machine! lol

    mum is picking me up from jobseeking place tomorrow becasue i dont know where im going so i might fall on my bum - heres hoping i can suck up nicely to swan about Boots Retail Park to get me turkey and cranberry sandwiches, lol.
    my advantage_card is like gold dush

    Thanks to all the tips on this thread, I finally got my boots points up to £160 and exchanged them for a lovely Canon digital camera yesterday (camera was reduced in the current 1/3 off camera promotion as well :) )

    However I now feel very sad as there is only £5 worth of points left on my card! I feel naked! There's only one thing for it, back down to Boots I go!

    Have noticed that when I print out a voucher from the advantage machine the tills sometimes award me the extra points for every product in the range I bought, however yesterday I was only getting the extra points for one item (this was the Toni & Guy stuff).
