Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 46 - Post your finds here

nilrs

hi

still looking for the gingerbread man advent calender thingy with drawers, i love gingerbread themed things (not keen on gingerbread itself) but if anyone could grab one for me on there travels i would be willing to pay postage etc and everything, have looked in all my local and not so local stores and cannot find one anywhere, even looked on ebay.

wellingborough had some s&g sets (presumably this is soap and glory) they had large what looked like vanity cases filled with the stuff.

not having a good day i now have my sons cold and my next delivery driver (lovely lady) has lost one of my parcels, so now i dont know if she has kindly given it to someone else, but she could not find it in her car:mad: .

if anyone can help with my above search could they pm me or reply here.

thanks

Hello Ladies

First post on here for me. Tried to get my head around the points and till spits and glithces earlier this year but got totally lost:rotfl: . Am going to give it another go and try and become a fully fledeged bootser in 2009.

Looking forward to 75% off sale. Got loads this year. Three trips to the car infact. I'm taking a friend and an empty pushcair this year!!

Could I just ask a question. Why is everyone so interested in the S & G sets? Is there an offer on or are they just really nice?

I just checked my order and the same so rang CS. The items with the reorder button are if you want to quickly look at past orders and reorder the items.
The items without the reorder button means they are out of stock.

Thanks, I was starting to get a bit undecisive as I spotted a few of the 'out of stock' bits in my local store while having a nose this morning and wondered if I should be dashing back down to grab them (some bits are for gift sets, like some Beano bits..)

I was told the same. My order is now in the Warehouse so it means what I ordered I'll get. The re-order is if I want to order more of the same, but the 'out of stock' means I couldn't order more if I wanted to, not that I can't have my order. IYSWIM?

I think I confused myself there :rotfl:

Hi gingersmum, :hello:
I think S+G is one of those things that you either really love or just don't get point of!
I do like the hand creams (glove story) really nice and moisturising, and the mini size pink handcream is great for the handbag. I'm now on the look out for the manicure tin in the sale!
The scent is really quite strong which I think is where people are divided. The style is also quite distinctive (I think quite funky) again, love or hate
I might be off to the Beckton Boots outlet store today, never been before so hope there are lots of bargains!

Havent been on here for ages due to my laptop breaking! Not been on since 23rd as had the flu, fainted and everything! Still feeling really rough, my ears playing up now aarghh! Was so ill over christmas, didnt get to do anything i wanted to with DS, so disappointing.
Hope everyone had a lovely christmas, on the plus side I did get £65 of Boots vouchers so can have a good spend up in the 75% sale. Im not going to attempt to catch up as I feel awful so bye for now. :

They are usually quite good about this kind of thing - but if you want to be 100% sure before you go, give CS a call and get a reference number.
