Well I braved the mobs going to the nearbye Next sale and went to Boots in Fort Kinnaird this morning. (Tip here...there was plenty of parking on the Borders side, but it was dead man's shoes on the Boots/Next side.) Boots was mobbed with folk buying perfume sets...are they really that much cheaper than they were two days ago? The only set I would have bought (YSL Organza) was the same price as it's been for weeks, yet someone bought three.

Anyway I got the Country Living Weekender bag and the Country Living sewing box both at 50% off, (£15 and £10) and paid with points. They're the only two things I really wanted but was too strapped for ready cash to buy them at 3-4-2, even on a points night. So that's my little extra Christmas pressie to myself and I've still got £48 in points on my card for the 75% off sale.

So just to remind folk...the 50% sale is only worth bothering about if there's a Must Have item in there, otherwise it's much the same prices as before Christmas but just arranged to look better, IYSWIM? The real sale is the 75% off. Keep your cool (and your points) and wait for it to start...online if you're paying with money, instore with points. There will be plenty left if last year is anything to go by and if you're just looking for general gifts rather than specifics.

Was just fiddling around on .com and tried the no 7 bath soak, 3 for 2 which puts a free paper gift bag in your trolley. When you delete the all of the soaks it leaves the gift bag in your trolley and allows you to change the amount of gift bags and no postage charged. Only a small glitch maybe but could be useful if someone needs alot of gift bags. Not sure if they will arrive as no postage being charged!!

Just went to check out and it suddenly charges postage!!!! But it lets me order 10 so if you are placing an order for something else then this would work but not worth the postage just for the bags!!!

When placing an order on .com, I'm getting the message: CMN3101E The system is unavailable due to "CMN0409E". Should I keep refreshing the page or give up?

It's just yet another generic error message that means nothing to the customer.
Mr B, it would be nice if your messages were a little more user friendly and explained exactly what the problem is and what the user can do to fix it.

Roughly translated it probably means "We have received your order several times and will be delivering your goods when we feel like it and charging your account twice each time you refresh the page. Our website is pants. Thank you for shopping on Boots.com"

Hello ladies (& chaps!) - hope you all had a lovely Xmas!

I've had a look & can't see the answer but does anyone know if the 750 offer points on Jemma Kidd stuff is on one transaction ie: if I put through 4 x wipes will I get 750 or 1500? I've seen a perfume set which I'd love but am a little poor after Xmas so trying to get it with points!! Thanks ladies xx

PS - Thank you to everyone on this thread who makes it so friendly & shares glitches etc - I;ve been able to give my family some lovely Xmas presents this year which I wouldn't have been able to afford to do if it wasn't for you lot. Thank you so much xxx:smileyhea

Just back from Boots and the Soap & Glory giftset sections were stripped BARE in two stores! I mean there was not a thing left. It was rather disappointing! I was trading some other items, and ended up just getting regular s&g that was on sale 342. It's hard to believe it all went so fast!

i_luv_percy

could someone confirm when the 75% sale starts?

PS MERRY CHRISTMAS AND THINGS
