hi mhoc

i think when you first join up there is a choice to say that you are either pregnant or have a baby under 3 months where you get the free vouchers.

or you can say that you have a child under 2 and you get 500 points.

My friend chose the 500 points thing and shes now gutted!! lol

I have a baby (now 4 months old- was 2 months when I applied to join), Daughter No1 was just coming up for 2nd birthday.

I got 500 points voucher with 1 mag & vouchers with another for avent stuff & huggies bag.

I put both kids on 1 application, so maybe I'm lucky to get both.

don't forget your partner is a parent too - i put details on my hubby's card aswell & he got sent the vouchers too. they obviously don't check if is mr or mrs, but is does say parenting not mum's club! no need to lie to get double vouchers.

I got my stuff yesterday and the checkout lady seemed rather astonished at what i got for nowt.

2 x Soltan for kids SPF30 plus 100 extra points (on a BOGOF) worth £9.19 each
1 x No7 Intelligent Foundation plus 200 extra points worth £12.50
500 free points
2 x Medditeranean Pregnancy Body Butter worth £5.00 each
Avent 200ml Indulgent Body Cream (cost me £1.99 instead of £5.99)


So in all £26.99 worth of stuff for £1.99 plus an extra 800 points

I LIKE this club! Haven't had my Avent Pack or Huggies Changing Bag Vouchers yet because my baby isn't due for a while but I will get them too at some stage!

I still have a skincare voucher for £5 that I haven't used yet too.

We were thinking of doing this too only this is one of the Terms and Conditions:

Multiple applications for the same child are not permitted

So maybe it isn't a great idea.

oops! never noticed that! they sent the stuff & is too late now as have used both no 7 vouchers. thanks for the warning though, won't use the rest, although a there are no med preg ranges in any of the stores i can get to i can't even use my own! does anyone know what is in these ranges so i can ask them to order me something? emailed helpline & they sent a list but doesnt really explain what they are or the price, just codes & abbreviated descriptions!

I went into Boots the other day with my vouchers and half the vouchers didn't work, apparently they are having problems with them. So check your receipt as i was charged for stuff i should have got free!! Not impressed so i complained to their head office......hopefully they will honour me with more vouchers!!

I had Medditeranean Body Butter for Pregnancy with Olive Honey and Neroli - it is in a pot rather than a bottle. Didn't get anything else but there was some bath milks too. HTHS.

i got the vouchers for no 7 etc but neither of the stores i can get to stocks mediterranean pregnancy range or avent future mother cream so only 2 vouchers any good. have emailed to complain & see if they will compensate or if it is just tough luck for me!!

I searched my nearest 2 Boots stores for the Mediterranean pregnancy range. No luck. So I took an ordinary Mediterranean body butter to check out and SA said pregnancy range had been discontinued but was still available in Milton Keynes. I said that was a long way to go for a £5 freebie so she accepted my voucher and I got free body butter. This was Boots in Northampton.

Boots should still be doing the preg massage body butter, found this in my local boots store, contains honey olive neroli massage body butter get 200ml (worth £5.00), if you get a store to order this item, item code is 44-27-351.

I went into Boots in Cheltenham this week and got a free massage body butter, my free soltan, and 500 points on my card. I also got three lots of No7 body firming cellulite cream (if anything can firm up my body, it shoud be classified as a miracle!) All the No7 stuff is on Buy 2, get 3rd item free, plus I used my voucher for 1 free item and the assistant let me use my £5 skincare voucher as well, so only paid £9 odd for the whole lot. I love Boots bargains!
