Hey guys…
Hope you all had a nice weekend? I’m away in Kerry for x2 nights but I wanted to run this competition because I know you guys are going to LOVE it.
So first of all…. as we all know, I’m a huge fan of the No7 range (hello skin illuminator, eye makeup remover and LOVE red lippy), so when I heard Boots was launching it’s very own app, I was so excited to try it out.
Personalised offers, deals, money off certain products, and additional points on purchases – who wouldn’t be be excited and I was even more excited to try it out??
I downloaded the Boots app the second they announced it last Monday, because I knew I would be heading into Boots later that day to pick up some hay-fever tablets. Anyone else just DYING right now from hay-fever? Oh my God, it is such a horrible dose!
So anyway – I don’t know what it is about Boots, but every time I’m in there, I always spend a small fortune.
Like any woman, I go in with the intention of buying some hayfever tablets, and I come out with around three highlighters, two lipsticks, and half the contents of the Maybelline counter! So as you can imagine, I love it when I get double or triple points on a purchase because as we all know, points mean money on your card that you can then put towards another purchase.
So just before I went shopping, I hopped on to the app and had a look at the personal offers. There were 6 waiting for me!
It’s so straightforward to use. You just go into the app, click on the offer you want, and it automatically loads on to your advantage card so that when you use the card in-store or online, the offer is redeemed.
The app also remembers your purchases so that it can tailor future offers and deals to suit your taste.
One of the first deals I downloaded to my advantage card was an offer of triple points on the purchase of any dental product because I knew I would be picking up a bottle of mouthwash in there. I also wanted to invest in a new electric toothbrush as well so the offer really made it worth my while.
I also downloaded an offer of 20% off pharmaceuticals and beauty supplements. I had wanted to pick up some vitamins, because I had recently noticed that my energy and mood levels were quite low.
Because I am so busy with work at the moment, I’m not training as regularly as I used to, and I’m not eating the right food either, which would definitely explain why I have been feeling so tired all the time. I also suffer from anaemia every now and then, which is a lack of iron in the blood, so I think part of the problem could be that I need an iron boost.
When in Boots, I picked up some of their own brand vitamins including the vitamin C & zinc, vitamin B complex (which is really good for energy), and multivitamins with iron. Thanks to the app deal, I got 20% off!
A girl on Instagram advised me not to take all three, so I decided to hold off on taking the multi-vitamin one. I want to see if the other two will be enough to perk me up before I start the course of multi-vitamins.
One of the app deals I downloaded to my card offered me 100 points when I spent €6.50 on shampoo or conditioner, so I decided to pick up a few from the TRESemmé range. As you know from my recent blogs and vlogs, I have been using TRESemmé products a lot these past few weeks and I’m loving them! As I’m nearly out however, I needed to restock, so the offer couldn’t have come at a better time!
Another product I bought was Soltan Once, which is Boots own rang of SPF. I’m a stickler for facial SPF.
I wear it everyday, regardless of the weather, so I picked up a bottle of Soltan Once 30+ for the face, and thanks to the offer I downloaded from the app, the purchase got me an extra 300 points!
The app also gave me a €3 deal on deodorants, which I didn’t even need to think twice about downloading! Deodorant can be a bit expensive, so when I see a deal, I always pick up a few bottles!
Another great feature with the app is the barcode scanner. When you see a product in store, you can scan the barcode and it will immediately give you the reviews and ratings from previous buyers.
Personally I love this feature, because let’s face it, who hasn’t been in a situation where you find yourself in two minds over whether or not to splash out on a particular product?
Sometimes a simple review can be the factor that sways us one way or the other. It’s really helpful to have an app that allows you scan in the barcode of a product and get all the feedback you need.
One of the app features that I know will come in handy for me is the ‘locator’. If you need to pick up an item from a Boots store, which I often do when I’m the road to a workshop or a booking, all you have to do is tap the store locator to find the most conveniently located Boots store.
The Boots Ireland app can be downloaded for free on the App Store or on Google Play, but if you need more information, you can find it here. If you don’t already have a Boots Advantage Card, you can still can sign up for one either in store or online here.
To celebrate the launch of this app, I have gotten my hands on a €200 Boots voucher which I will be giving away to one very lucky reader!
