  • I had been hoping to buy some of the Jack Wills gift sets in the sale and have been really surprised to notice they aren't reduced. Do you think they might be reduced a bit later or they will just stay this price until they are all sold? Any wisdom greatly appreciated.

    Jack Wills are fiercely protective of their brand - I'm wondering if they have allowed Boots to use their name for the products but will not allow them to reduce so as not to devalue the brand? Will be interesting to see what happens with them!

    My local Boots had lots of the JW stuff left on Christmas Eve but all had been removed from sale totally for the Boxing Day sale.

    Ie 3 £10 items before Xmas on 342 is £20, at half price but not 342 now those same items would be £15.

    I am a bit clueless about the 50% off sale because I have always waited until the 75% sale which I always used to look forward to. However, last year was so horrendous, I am determined to avoid it!


    Saw this on the Boots homepage, not sure if it helps?

  • Thank you so much for your advice about the Jack Wills stuff. Now kicking myself for not stocking up when it was 3 for 2!
    I was hoping to get gifts for my daughter's friends so will pass on the set on the homepage but thanks so much for pointing it out.
    Thank you

    I have to agree there wasn't much decent stuff left, I only went in as passing and not specifically (Hull Kingston Retail Park). I got a Soap & Glory set for £8 with the super tonic, orangeasm mini body butter & shower gel which I thought was a good deal, the spray alone is lovely.
    Looooadds of Sanctuary items left :money:
