    I don't know why so many people leave it this late to shop. I couldn't face the crowds. I'm lucky because we have a Boots outlet nearby, so I'll be seeing what's there in January. It's hit & miss, but I've found some good bargains in there. Will probably have a quick look in the Boots near my family when I'm visiting, though. Just to see what's in the sale.:T

    I would hate to be searching for gifts at the last minute!!!! Reminds me of that advert where everyone goes to their local petrol station and buys any old rubbish!!!!

    Are you close to Bristol?? When you say outlet do you mean a branch or have Boots got discount outlets - that would be great, let me know if I am missing out on something...:T

    My family live in Gloucester, so I've been to Cribbs Causeway before. Not for a while, though.
    I'm in east London. The Boots Outlet is in Beckton and as far as I know it's the only one. I'm sure I read there was another one somewhere, but it closed down. It's not a huge shop, but all the bits in there are reduced. I think they probably ship in the excess stock from other branches that isn't selling. I got a nice Amazonian hamper there earlier in the year for less than £8-instead of £25. They always have lots of Sanctuary stuff and some Botanics. Worth a look if you're ever nearby. Next outlet is next door to it also.

    I will be going into Broadmead tomorrow by bus to get rid of the rest of my blueys. Will get yet more serum and maybe some more sharpeners!!!! I treated myself to some Urban Retreat Shampoo and Conditioner but not sure that it is anything special for the price of it TBH!!!! Maybe I need to try it a few times first.

    Wow lucky you having a Boots outlet - do you still get advantage points on purchases or is that being too hopeful!!!!
