  • Hi all,

    I've spoke to my friends who works in Boots in the North East and she said she's been told by her seniors that it's tomorrow (Tuesday 11th). She said they weren't 100% certain in store but I'm still going down there just in case!

    I remember last year that the website changed it's prices at around 3am on the day (it crashed at midnight so I stayed up until I managed to get on so I could find out!) Unfortunately there was hardly any stock online. The boots in Newcastle was full to the brim and I had to fight my way through a stampede to get in! I enjoy this every year ha ha!

    I'd suggest checking the website tonight at midnight and if it's crashed then you know it's the sale!

    Good luck with the bargains, be ruthless! If I hear anything different from my friend today I will share the info on here :)

    I remember there being no Sanctuary stuff in the 75% off sale last year - at the time I wondered if they had pulled it out of the sale - did anyone buy any Sanctuary last year in the 75%? I'm wondering if they will do the same this year and also pull the S&G maybe - I can't think what they would do with it cos it will be all old style gift sets by next year?

    I'll be at work anyhoo, online has hardly anything left, and by the time I get anywhere it will be like a hoard of locusts has pulled the store apart but good luck to yee all when the flag goes down!!

    Even if I'm on the shopping threads, it doesn't mean I'm buying! Sometimes it's good to just look and then hit the CLOSE button!

    I definitely got some Sanctuary bags last year, think they'd been priced at around £15-£20 so would have been down to a fiver or less.

    TBH, I think with some of the more popular brands like S&G and Sanctuary it just doesn't last long enough to go into the 75% sale. I bought myself some S&G and Sanctuary bits for presents during the year as I just don't think that they will make it that far. Or not in the bigger stores, at least.

    Well its gone midnight and there is no sign of the boring couple that we all watched for hours last year so I guess there is no website updates going on :(

    I will try again at midnight tomorrow.
