spend £2 on makeup and get £5 at Boots!!!

I went to boots and they have reduced the Karen Millen and Urban Decay makeup all to just £1.00 on the clearence section.

If you buy any two products in the range you get 500 advantage points so they are paying you £3 to take it away. My local store (IOW) has run out now as it is clearence stock and they won't be selling these ranges anymore :D but the other boots may have some left.

I spent £80 on makeup and got £200 on my advantage card!!.

I have posted on a seperate thread as it might get lost on the big one and i can see this going very fast.

Good luck

    Thanks. Are the points automatic or do you need a voucher from the advantage card machine?
  • Wow, I guess it will just be in the bigger stores?
    Like my avatar, took the photo myself with the free digital camera I bought from boots with all my free points! I love moneysaving.

    And if you do find some, dont forget to put them through the till in £6 lots, three lots of 2 so you get the points plus spend over £5 in Boots get a £5 skin care voucher.

    the £5 beauty vouchers they're giving out... what are they for? ANY beauty stuff or just stuff from say the no 7 range etc? also, can you use more than one of these vouchers in a transaction? ie if i had £11 worth of qualifying beauty products could i just hand them 2 vouhcers then pay a pound?
