How many boots points do you currently have?

Just curious really, I have 5831 points which equates to £58.31, I want to see who has the most! Is there a max amount of points you can have?? I've saved up my points for 2 years 🙈

£91 - we use them on family meals deals that the children think is a treat! Grin

Peridot1 · 25/02/2022 16:51

£37.18.

Thinking of switching to them for glasses too which would build up more I suppose.

Boots points are a bloody scam!! I've spent a fortune in there but only have around £26. How is that possible!

Itstime1 · 25/02/2022 16:53

£63 here and it’s going up thanks to parent clip points!

Most of mine previously have just come from meal deal points from work over the last 2 years

flashpaper · 25/02/2022 16:53

£55.55
I try and save them and treat myself.

HiCandles · 25/02/2022 16:58

£53. I love Boots points, it's all stuff I would buy anyway so the points are just a bonus and they add up really quickly!

MsSquiz · 25/02/2022 17:04

Quite a few apparently...

If you check the app before you shop online, you can usually activate a couple of good offers.

Mollysocks · 25/02/2022 17:22

I got to £60 and just bought myself a perfume. Been saving for about 2 years too 😊

mumofEandE · 25/02/2022 17:24

I usually get up to about £80 at Christmas and this sees me through January - I mean in January I have no food but look great Hmm

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 25/02/2022 17:24

About £40 I think. The most I've ever had was £200, we used those when dc5(4) was born. Some bits for him & some perfume & nice bath & shower bits for me.

Yet I feel like I barely ever set foot in Boots, but always seem to have loads of points somehow.

£22.63 for me at the moment.

WillYouDoTheFandango · 25/02/2022 17:49

£14.76 it’s the most convenient place near work to nip for deodorant etc on my lunch break.

I always buy mascara with my points.

covetingthepreciousthings · 25/02/2022 17:49

I knew someone who worked at Boots who put me off saving more than £30-40 as she said if there were any glitches they'd be gone and Boots wouldn't honour them - is this still true? So a bit of a pain if you lost hundreds! I have about £40 at the moment but no idea what to buy.

simonthedog · 25/02/2022 17:50

Boots is really expensive. Superdrug or Savers are way cheaper or online for perfume, I think you would save far more than you will collect in points.

TheCanyon · 25/02/2022 18:05

Only got 3 pound odd. Our local shop is massively understaffed and never asks if you've got a card.

savehannah · 25/02/2022 18:13

@emmathedilemma

£17.33 although to be fair I couldn't tell you the last time I shopped in there! I have nearly £300 on my nectar card though.
I get tons of Nectar points even though I don't shop in Sainsburys much these days because we have a Nectar credit card so everything we spend on their gets points. I mostly shop in Aldi, but pop into Sainsburys for the bits I can't get in Aldi, and it's usually free due to my Nectar points!
KitKattaktik · 25/02/2022 18:21

At one stage I had over £300 worth. Which I splurged at the Clearance outlet in Beckton and sold it all on eBay. There used to be a thread on moneysaving expert devoted to boots bargains and how to boost your points.

Oh my I'm envious🙈 did it take you a while to get these?

Is there a boots outlet?? I've never heard of it!

@ohhappyday1 probably not as long as it should have! Grin
I was saving them for a dyson air wrap but I'm still miles off so might just treat myself to some fancier make up and skincare once the baby is here instead

Skybubble · 25/02/2022 19:36

£20.62 Every little helps 🤣

ItsDisneyBitch · 25/02/2022 19:43

I’m a shameless points whore.

I save Boots all year round and spend them on Christmas presents and stocking fillers.

Nectar I save all year round last year I had £200 (I do stationary orders at work) so my Christmas food shop was free. 🙈

I also use top cash-back religiously and over the past four years have made about £6k.
