I'ce posted it a few times - from a senior SA at Liverpool Street who is great for info... My posts seem to be met with contempt though ... I guess people would rather stay awake all night???

Anyhow, my 100% reliable in the past source says Wednesday for online (14th), and the following monday for in store.

You watch now, as she lets me down for the first time!!!!

I really do hope that's correct because I have to take daughter to get her new brace fitted on Wednesday so would have had to miss it in store.

Good morning all, I am I dreaming but I thought last year the 75% .com sale loaded up at 5 am ? and not 3am x

I visited both Maidstone branches yesterday, and no sign of any of the Olay or L'Oreal GWP or any of the other ex GWP in fact I did get some Pantene sachets in the branch in the Chequers Mall, though - they are hidden away on the bottom shelf. There is no No7 'last chance to buy' shelf, in fact I saw no reduced No7 at all, apart from the Gift Sets.

Staff were busy re-arranging the shelves where the Christmas Gifts at 50% off are. There was a large area of bare shelves, so hopefully they're making room for lots of stock in readiness for the 75% off sale?

the SA in my local have said the sale in store starts next week...
this is just my opinion, but maybe they are timing the on-line sale to be sure NONE of it will be delivered before the in store one, so none of the 75% sale items can be returned for a 50% refund...iyswim
i just wish they would hurry up and get on with it, while they are taking the time, we are all battling with ourselves...'do we really need the £100 plus items in our baskets right now?' ok they will be £50 when it happens... i have just decided that i don't need the green & blacks fondue set:p but left it in my basket just in case!

Oh come now Doctor, nobody is treating your posts with contempt, please don't feel like that!

It's just that one of your earlier posts said this:

Last year it was the 9th Jan, the year before the 10th, so I'm guessing somewhere around these dates - the closest Wednesday?

So if your assumption was right, the sale would have been yesterday.

In the words of the gorgeous Sophia Loren, for those old enough to remember:

Oh Doctor, we're in trouble, oh goodness gracious me,
We wish we knew for certain when the sale is gonna be

Our eyelids start to close, as we feel the urge to dose
We go yawn-diddy yawn-diddy yawn-diddy yawn-diddy ................ etc

(sorry, couldn't resist it!)

Darlington (the big boots) had pantene sachets yesterday.

And just for info - I have really thick, curly hair which is very dry at the mo (think dragged through a hedge in all directions and you will get the picture:p ), used one of the pantene sachets this morning and what a difference - honestly, I could be on the Loreal advert and put Eva whatserface to shame with my tresses:D

Oh yes it does (sorry going to a panto this afternoon )

I ordered some the other day (expecting delivery today), and just tried a virtual reorder and still got the glitch offer showing. :T Try deleting your card from your online account and readding the card number again (I cut and paste it back in).

yep, wasn't working for me until i deleted my ac number and re entered it, but works fine now, looks like i will have to empty my lovely sale basket and order some to shift all that yorkie pud and chocolate thats settled on my hips!!
