    Just hazarding a guess here but maybe F means Fragrance and NC means the posh Cosmetics (like Clarins and YSL) or along those lines as only a few of these stores will have either. HTH

    Hey,

    I work for Superdrug, and have to say i am embaressed by this 'sale'.

    Basically what happened is that only selected stores were chosen for this sale- dont know why!- and every other store, mine included- had to send out any of the stock they had that was in the sale to stores that were in the sale. So the majority of stores won't have ANY sale stock- only the ones in the list. And even the stuff that is in the sale is absolutely awful- either stuff that we couldn't shift years ago, or stuff with a BBE coming up soon.

    Xmas gifts are slightly cheaper- some good stuff there- Rimmel sets for £4.99- you get a Mascara, a bag and an eyeliner i think. and there are a few fragrance bargains- not like the fragrance sale in the Summer which was very good though.

    SORRY EVERYONE!

    I am gonna be so embraessed on the next day i work as we have these signs up saying 90% off and 'Our Biggest Clearence Ever', yet we don't actually have anything, except stuff like Mr Men at Christmas and Ladies shopping bags..

    :mad:

    I can confirm this.

    Sale items to expect at my store are nappies and bubble bath. No expensive electronics as mentioned in this list, and it's the largest London branch listed on the site!

    PH = Pharmacy
    F = Fragrance
    C = Cosmetic counters (with assistants, testers etc.)
    NC = No cosmetics
    3 = 3 Mobile Services (3 store within the Superdrug store)
    If there is neither NC or C then the store does sell cosmetics on the shelves, but there are no assistant counters.

    Does anyone know of any London stores that WILL have some of the electronic items mentioned?
