I'd be surprised to see it in the 75% off sale - it's very popular around these parts!

Going into Boots this afternoon but unfortunately got a grumpy fella with me so I can't hang about. I can't find the story of the razors or any other good offer on the first page, it never seems to tell me what you are all talking about at the moment, although I am sure CPG is doing a fantastic job. Can someone just give me a quick resume of the best ones so I can write it down please? Otherwise, my mind will go blank when I get in there.

Hi, it's only the Wilkinson Sword Quattro precision titanium. In the red and black box. In some stores the sel is still full price, but on the tills they are half price and also in the xmas three for two. so it works out very cheap. The deal is no longer working on .com but it worked instore yesterday, and from reports on here, today too. hth

Fed up with boots, i finally made a complaint about the store that i have ongoing problems with nearly four weeks ago, waited nearly two weeks for them to get back to me, hear nothing so made a call to them, to be told the person that was dealing with it was not in work till the next week, so waited another week and called again, to find nothing had been done about it, spoke to someone senior who told me that i would need to speak to the store manager about it and he would get the store manager to phone me, that was over a week ago now, not hear anything from the store. Phoned boots again to be told they had spoken to the store and he said that he was putting a complaint in for me and that a team would be looking in to it, i asked how much longer it was going to take with it taking nearly four weeks. He asked what i wanted told him just that the staff treat me better than they do, he said that he would speak to the store and get the manager to ring me. I don't hold out much hope that the manager will ring me, since they have had over a week. I don't know what to do now.

Spoken to store manager who told me that they had tried phoning me but not left a message. They are going to speak to the staff involved.

Boots really are a total joke with their customer service follow-up. They couldn't give a flying!

They're always polite on the phone when you call Customer Care, but regardless of what they tell you, if you listen carefully, you'll hear a wooden nose growing longer...

What would be a great laugh would be to go into the store and ask to speak to the manager and while you're waiting for him to turn up, call Customer Care on your mobile, get this person again, get them to hold on for a second and then pass the phone to the manager when he turns up. You'll be a witness to the conversation then.

This is not true as Mrs Bluebear was able to cancel hers this morning!
Give CS another call and hopefully you'll get through to someone else who knows how to cancel it.
If they say again it cannot be cancelled, try saying a friend was able to cancel with no problems!
Good luck!

Me again...........

I have just spoken to CS & they said you can't cancel an online order! Is this true? She said I would have to return the parcel by post or take it into a Boots store! Will they take back the points?

Saw quite a lot of DNAage and SKIN WISDOM stuff reduced to £4.00. Use a BLUE and it's free. Trust me to have left all my BLUES at home! Boohoo.

All items have now been sent out. Will be with their new owners by next Monday or Tuesday.

Have a great weekend all.

I'd've grabbed it myself. Get something for a fiver and get another Blue and then put the reduced item thru.

your best bet is to ring the store tell them ur unhappy about the way it been dealt with on store level and that u want a number for customer services to make an official complaint, manager will resolve it there and then as no wants there store being reported like that, i can assure that this works as i have done it and received 750 points from cs, however if u want to be compensated ring cs anyway!!
