I swear by a little-known hack to get perfume for FREE from Boots – anyone can do it and my points doubled too

A BEAUTY lover has revealed a simple hack to getting free perfume or products at Boots with a little-known scheme.

Jade, who posts under @jade.wan, shared how all you need to do is return old products to the high street retailer to recycle, and you can increase your points.

In a video which has over 8,000 likes, Jade showed how she had increased her points from 5,180 (which is worth £51.80) to 1,0059 (£100.59).

The Boots shopper wrote: “Forever thanking the TikTok girlies that put me on the Boots recycling scheme.”;

Boots Recycling Scheme aims to “turn empties into opportunities.”;

It means you can earn points for your empty beauty, health, wellness and dental products, from any brand, that can’t be recycled at home.

First you need to download the Recycle at Boots app and then you need to scan your old products to check they are valid.

The website states: “Log your empties in the app and allow up to 24h for validation.”;

Once any items have been approved, you can then take them into a Boots store and scan the QR on the deposit box.

It adds: “Recycle five empties or more, and spend £10 in-store to collect 500 Advantage Card Points.”;

Once you have recycled your items, you have three days to spend the £10 in-store to get the points reward.

However, once you have the points, you can save them up to spend on a larger purchase, such as perfume.

Jade said she uploads photos of empty toiletries, make-up, and old tooth brushes to see if they are eligible, and they don’t have to initially been bought from Boots.

The added bonus is packaging then gets recycled into new items such as playground equipment or garden furniture.

Many Boots fans commented on her video to praise the deal.

One said: “I’m at £300 and I’m saving for a Dyson.”;

Another added: “I’ve gathered a lot of points with this because I was gonna spend the 10£ on an item anyways.”;

And a third commented: “it’s honestly a game changer.”;
