You snooze, you lose, with this new Advantage Card rule.

Traditionally, Advantage Card users have had two years to keep their points without scanning their card.

The current system allows customers to collect points worth a penny whenever they shop instore.

Customers have now been told that a big change is coming from 20th June.

If you've been saving your points up for a big purchase, you've got to move quickly as from that date, the time limit will be reduced to just a year.

It's time to use them or lose them!

Boots customers received an email this week which read: "Thank you for being one of our valued Boots Advantage Card members.

"Whilst it won’t impact you as a regular Boots shopper, we need to let you know that we’re updating our Boots Advantage Card terms and conditions.

"From 20th June 2022, we will remove Boots Advantage Card points from accounts that haven’t been used* for one year, instead of the current two-year period.

"As long as you shop with your Boots Advantage Card at least once a year, your points will always be there ready for you to use them."

Don't leave your card gathering dust, and double check how much you have.

The Mirror found one mum who had a whopping £380 stored up on her loyalty cards.
