    Just when I thought I was going to grab some much needed sleep, angelbrandy posted her theory and I love it (thanks ab); and it has convinced me that today is the day for the .com 75% sale (I have faith!!), that I now have my laptop in bed with me!!
    Glad you have faith kaznpops just hope my theory comes right! Would hate to think you were losing sleep. Fingers crossed and keep the faith... For a little while longer anyway!

    Just saw some posh Pantene Leave In whatever it was on the clearance shelf at my local. Thought I would give it a whirl to see if I got the 100 extra points and it did. Went to get another 3 before the SA that was serving me cleaned them out for herself. LOL.

    Have a look at your clearance shelf, if they have Pantene stuff at less rhan £1, then get it, you get 100 points back per item.

    Got some meal deals too, and did not get a BLUE, so I pouted and asked and she gave me 1 after that.

    Hope all is well. Best wishes.

    PS. Dewsbury store has ADMIT IT YOU WANT ME sets in stock.

    Mimi luv who is the photo of in your avatar????? Just noticed you changed it lol!!!!

    Hope you are having a good week this week!!

    Just got back from Ventura Park, Tamworth, SA moving everything about, heard 2 SA's saying they got them in early at 9.00am to sort everything out for ..... (wne all hush hush as I was walking past) tried to lurk but they kept moving about. I think the sale may definitely starting Wednesday. They had a shelf full of No.7 stuff reduced. Also had loads more christmas stock than they had last week.

    I have just rang boots head office again .. I asked the lady about the online sale going to 75% off was it today or tomorrow?.. she said she has no idea + even asked someone else.. she says if it had of been today it would of already started by now.

    My guess is tomorrow.. as the christmas eve- boxing day.. was the next working day between them .. so maybe tomorrow online, as it's wednesday instore... but that's just my theory of it lol.

    Can anyone answer this please:

    If i buy a pushchair for a friend instore from .com and it has a promotion on it for double points will i get the double points when paying instore or only if i buy online.

    For example my friend wants a zia, it currently has double points so the double points are 856. Would i get 856 pts on my AC for ordering offline instore, if so could i also use my double points mailing coupon?

    Would my double points coupon give me double the 856 or double the original 428? Can i also use total spends vouchers from the ACM.

    I hope all that makes sense.

    just phoned my local boots (newport south wales) and the lady i spoke to said the 75% sale is definately wednesday:T yippee

    On the big day, is it best to be waiting for the store to open or do the sa's take some time to get the stock re-priced? Not too sure how it all works!

    last year my store opened at 8.30 i was there just after as dropped my daughter off at the school bus and the prices were already labled.. the tills will already be sorted for the price change.. Ive grabbed stuff in my basket and if in doubt check price on your mobile phone calculator and if dont want put back ...


    not that many people in the store that early but by about 9.30 was starting to get busier
    Those we love don't go away,They walk beside us every day,Unseen, unheard, but always near,
    Still loved, still missed and very dear
    Our thoughts are ever with you,Though you have passed away.And those who loved you dearly,
    Are thinking of you today.

    Hi,
    yes, you can use your double points, total spend mailing and acm total spend points vouchers when you order from .com in store. This is SA dependant, but the photo counter where you do the .com order usually are pretty good with vouchers.

    I don't know if the double points on push chairs is an online offer only, best check with cs. Your double points coupon will only double your basic points not any extras, so it probably won't double the already double points iyswim? hth
  • Do they usually bring out more stock for the 75% sale? There doesn't seem to be much left in my local boots, but perhaps they've got a load in the stock room?

    Sounds like you could be right, makes sense. Think I'm just hanging on to any last thread of hope! Do you really think cs don't know or they just not allowed to say. I would have thought they would know. Oh well, I guess we just have to keep on waiting & waiting & waiting & waiting...........................
