  • Can anyone please tell me, if I have any coupons such as parent club ones can I use them and still get my 1200 extra points. I have a 1500 points when you spend £75 voucher. So can I spend £75 and get my 1500 plus my 1200 plus my normal points?

    "Customers will receive 1200 Advantage Card points for every £50.00 spent in a single transaction."

    Does this mean if you spend £100 you will get 2400 points?

    Also can you spend £50, get the 1200 points and then spend £50 again and use the 1200 points you had from the original spend to reduce the purchase price to £38. If you can do this would you qualify for another 1200 points the second spend?

    Last year we bought loads of presents on 3 for 2 and the till gave us every 3rd cheapest item free. e.g. presents £100, £100, £100, £5, £5, £5. Got £100 and £5 free, not £5 and £5. Hope this is still the same otherwise we will have to plan how to send the items through.

    i had assumed that you could combine the 75pounds/1500 points with the 50/1200 points thing. I might have to check as I had hoped to use the two together.

    if you are planning on spending £100 i would try to spend it in two lots of £50 if possible. this will ensure you get the 1,200 points for each £50 spent. x

    I spent £350 and got 7 x 1200 points - the girl on the till then gave me some other discounts and I came out with £250+ worth of points on my card and only spent around £310 after the extra discounts came off. Gobsmacked was not the word for it!! It all went through in one transaction. I have my card ready and waiting for Boots this year.....!! Saves me a fortune in nanppied and kids clothes through the year.

    I'm afraid you can't do this as if you are using advantage card points, they have to be used to pay for the total of your purchase, not part cash part points. So even if you used 5000 points to pay for £50 worth of shopping, you wouldn't get any points from that.
  • An apology if this has already been posted.
