I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas!
I had a lovely time and only got one Boots present LOL!
Now its time to hit the sales ,probably missed the best but only got a quick look yesterday and couldn't see anything that was really worth it at 50% off.
I have done a S&G order on .com so quite pleased with that.
Is there any S&G in any Edinburgh stores?

just called CS and they have confirmed I will definitely receive my order inbetween now and the 5th with or without a despatch email I hope they are right, and it might be the same for others with their order just saying being processed

I think usually when its gone its gone. In past years their 50% sale isn't usually very successful....but then the 75% hits and everything flies off the shelves. this year however it seems to be the opposite. by the time we get to 75% there might not be much left. Personally I'm not too worried if I don't get anything. There are always other deals / glitches that appear throughout the year.

Well I was confused reading this thread saying you were all holding on for the 75% sale. I remember last year everything went after the 50% sale and I never even saw any 75% sales! Exactly the same this year too.

Last year I went up to the store on the day the 75% started. There was loads left and I bought a huge pile using my points. This year I won't be able to get up there. However, from reports on here it sounds like a lot of people are buying in the 50% sale this time around.

I'll still look and may buy something. However, I only buy stuff that I know I can use. So if there is nothing of use left then I walk away with nothing.

I don't do 50% because its not that much cheaper than their 3 for 2 deal before xmas. You're only saving an additional 16%, and personally I don't think that 16% is worth going to the extra trouble for.

my little local had loads of perfume sets still, so grabbed the ladies euphoria with roller pen one as oos on .com, they also had 6 of the s n g pamper boxes and a few hand wash things plus a load of other bits, there were loads of people looking but no-one buying, i will keep my eye on things there like the day before the 75% off lol
i do though go further afield for more juicy bargains as i will this year as well, so will call in there on the way home and see whats left.

my only christmas dilema was we bought our eldest the little tikes police car and both of the boys have been non stop arguing over it, so i grabbed one from .com for half price(red yellow one) to give me some brain time lol

Hi Hun,

I checked belfast on boxing day at opening time and there was only glove story and the big pamper box as far as i could see. I was in sprucefield yesterday as well and they only had glove story. I really hope they restock but i'm not holding out much hope. Sprucefield had loads of empty shelves yesterday, so i'm imagining belfast is the same by now:eek: . x

Bristol Cribbs still had loads of stuff on Sat and they were bringing more out and re-stocking. People seemed to be more interested in the perfume sets which is what I went to get also. There were all different brands left and some of these were showing OOS on .com so I was pleased to be able to get the ones I wanted instore.

I think I only saw S & G Glove Story also but I was not not really looking tbh!!!

I'm hoping the local warehouses have loads of stock and they will keep re-filling the shelves!!!!

Still no despatch email for me for the gwp glitch!!!

Went in to Belfast big boots today and there is not a hell of a lot left!! I am not hopeful for the 75% off sale!!
Oh well i dont "need" anything but when did that stop me before!!
Thanks
