Advantages: Good points rate, great bonus offers, easy to use

Disadvantages: None

The Boots Advantage card is a fantastic card that Boots offer so that you can earn points on all purchases enabling you to use the points to pay for future products. The points system is very simple and works on the basis of points per pound with bonus offers regularly being on offer in Boots stores as well as being sent through the post and whilst with many other bonus points cards you do not really notice a lot of reward buidling up with the Boots Advantage card you will notice the points have built up well if you use Boots regularly. The card works simply...when it the store carrying out a purchase just hand the card to the sales person (or if using the new self serve tills appearing in many stores then you will be prompted when to put the card in the reader. When you want to redeem the points simply advise of this before your purchase is put through and they will take the points off the price of items being purchased but please be aware that the points can only be redeemed for the cost of whole items rather than money off shopping (if your shower gel is £5 then you have to use £5 points to pay for this and can't ask for £3 off this).
I personally like to use Boots to find fragrance deals as you can smell them before you buy them and with purchases like this you see the most rewards for your card due to the amount of money being spent.
When it comes to redeeming your points they can only be used to pay for whole items and not taken as an amount off of a purchase but if you do like me and save your points throughout the year and use the points in the run up to Christmas then this saving is truly welcomed.

Summary: A great bonus points system that works well and is simple to understand and use
