The health and beauty retailer runs a little-known scheme where customers can return make-up empties and even baby wipe packets in exchange for cash to spend in store. 

Every five items you return will earn you the equivalent of a whopping £5 you can then save up for a little treat in the future - perhaps, even your favourite perfume.

The only catch is you have to be an Advantage Card member to benefit from the scheme. 

In return, and after a £10 shop and recycling a minimum of five products, customers will receive £5 worth of Advantage Card points for free.
