geordie lass, when does boots sale normally start? im into boots only since this summer, so im all new to botsing:) i probably get all bday prsenets from boots sale:)

I think 50% off starts on Boxing Day, 342 comes off then too.

The online 75% off sale this year started in the early hours of Wednesday 9th January, instore it was Tuesday 15th January. A few weeks after that it goes to 90% off though there isn't usually much left by then.
From what I can remember from other posters that is the pattern it takes, online on Wednesday then instore the following Tuesday, who knows though MrB might change it this year.

The staff usually only get to know the day before and are sworn to secrecy, though some SA's will whisper to you if you ask quietly. Last time even some of the SA's didn't know as there were no signs up in some stores.

I also asked about the elizabeth arden while I was in and lady said she only had one batch and all gone and no more to be had - looks like my voucher is going to voucher heaven:A

Hi Guys,

Just caught up with everything now, I dont seem to have read anything on the ted baker gift set 342 xmas, unless i missed it. Anyway I tried it on 3 duck & dive @ £8 each and it didnt work, it was in boots local store not sure if it is a boots alliance store ifyswim.

Also will I was browsing I noticed a sign for wyb 3 mens 342 products recieve free gold bag just in case it hasnt been covered, thought id mention it. Sorry if it common knowledge though & i'm just having a blond moment!

hth someone though & the stealth razor sets are 1/2 price @ £10 instore 2. But didnt notice anything else sorry, no major glitch to report!

I haven't heard anyone report back on the Ted Baker either, the glitch must just be in the Alliance pharmacies.

I got the Razor Glitch (again today), SA looked really confused and kept saying "but they're £7.99 each" I was saying "oh I think they're on offer" (silently thinking "now hand the damn things over and pleeeeease don't call anyone!")

Well set for xmas but I can't resist Boots, lol

I have a relative who works in Boots and she told my mum that the sale is going to start a few days before Christmas. I will ask her about it when I'm home next.

AB_KW if you aren't going to spill anything, why bother posting? If I remember correctly you've been wrong about the offer of the weeks that you said weren't going to happen previously.

If your refering to the digital camera, I said in my post that the offer was not happening from that Friday of the post. I didn't say it wasn't happening at all. If it's not this that your thinking of, please enlighten

btw, I was just trying to make convo (believe it or not, some people like to know that the info is out there but don't want to know what it is). If you like I won't post here again.

When people have speculated saying that something would be offer of the week, you have replied saying "I can confirm that it won't be the offer this week" when it has been. I'm not sure what item it was as it was a few weeks ago, possibly when someone posted a list of all the offers and dates.
