    This is why I have told DH to hold off buying me stuff from Boots for my Christmas this year, he leaves everything till the last minute, typical man, and I can't see the point buying something one day and then the following day it's going to be half price. I've bought loads from boots over the last couple of months and it really annoys me to see it all in the sale but I would be even more annoyed if it was reduced the next day iykwim lol

    Anyway, a couple of years ago I got loads and loads of stuff in the sale online, think it was the 75% off and I spent about £200, so got £800 worth, it really set me up for the following Christmas. I don't know whether to hold tight for the 75% sale to start or the 50% off sale. Last year I couldn't get on the site, it kept crashing!!

    hmmmmmm decisions, decisions!

    I spend about the same in the 75% off sale, I keep a big box of all boots stuff in my wardrobe and as the birthdays come through the year they get much lovelier stuff than if I had to go out and pay full price.:T

    Has anyone started too add stuff to their favourites so it is a wee bit quicker to add stuff to your basket once sale starts?

    I am seriously considering doing this, I missed last years sale online so will hopefully have a wee bit more luck tomorrow. :)

    their website is currently down saying 'we are refreshing our offers'
    is it worth checkingbefore noon?
    I'm playing all the right notes, just not necessarily in the right order!

    The quotes are for the "gorgeous" man and lady on the front "holding" page on boots website. When we were all waiting for the OOTW, comical jibes against the pair, kept us all sane!!:D
    Always on the hunt for a bargain.....:j
