Oh dear, I did read somewhere that points will be available within 7 days after delivery so it might be worth putting your card in the AD machine again in a few days.
Or another possibility is that when Boots realised the error they may have cancelled your order but it slipped through the net and was delivered anyway.
Good luck, hope your points appear.

I was in Boots in Edinburgh yesterday and bought some wilkinson sword intuition razors for £3.14, these were half price and had a label on them for £3 off your next purchase of Intuition razors or blades. There is also a coupon on the boots magazine for 35p off of these razors so you effectively get paid 21p to take them away.

I also got lots of points from the machine. 100 points for any item from the boots fragrance free or cucumber range, except the cleansing bar. I bought some cleanser, face scrub and face mask which were £1.39 each. There was 100 points for cutex nail varnish remover which costs £1.99 and triple points if you bought 2 items from the boots skin clear range which are already on offer at 2 for £4.50. I also bought a meal deal and got 100 points. The sales assistant was pretty annoyed as I asked her to put everything through seperately as it now says on each coupon that only 1 can be used per transaction.

I went back in today to get some more points and got no coupons from the machine, not even the meal deal one!

I tried to use the Advantage Card machine in 2 stores today and most of the offers had gone. In one store the only thing it offered me was points on Soltan. Did want to buy some of the Cucumber range too which is a pity.

Based on tips on this and various other MSE threads, I bought 2 Intuition razors for £5.93 using the coupon from the boots mag. So, 23 advantage card points and 2 £3 vouchers for tesco. Because I had spent over £5, I was entitled to a £5 skincare voucher. Someone else on another Boots thread suggested using this for a BOGOF on a Botanics pore perfection gift set for £6, hence getting 2 for £1 plus the voucher. Result! The school bazaar will love this. Will go back and do it again soon.

Seems the Natural Collection BOGOF offer is still on and still works with the reduced price gift bags. I got two for 24p last night in the Darlington branch! :dance:

raspberry to Boots in Burnley
None of the ad card machines were working
Mrs Jobsworth on the till would not let me use the £5 skincare voucher on Botanics that was already reduced
Someone had nicked all the £3 vouchers stuck on the Wilkinsons Razors
It was busy with only two tills open, so a long wait to pay
Still there is always tomorrow

I had 3 £5 skin vouchers, which I used on the BOGOF Botanics. The SA was really, really helpful. She told me all about combining the offers (No 7, 3 4 2),to get the best deals and kept saying 'don't not use them, don't let them go to waste, even if you only buy lots of wipes they'll always come in useful'.
I've been going to this Boots for over 20yrs and have never had help from anyone there.
So I have a bag of stuff here besides me that I haven't yet had the chance to put away.
Also ordered online the other night 3 4 2 on vitamins. It accepted the £5 skin voucher on line , so I ended up paying just the P&P. The first lot arrived today.................with 2 more skin vouchers
