    I got quite a few No7 thing out of the clearance part in my local store ( EK) but they didnt go through on 3 4 2 - told I couldnt use blinkie on clearance items either - sttod y ground and eventually got it but not the 3 42 - not that bothered as got 4 lotions and potions plus the gold clasp bag for free!! Yahhoo

    Cant beleive how busy both EK stores were - got all the things on my list though and a few extras ( was waitig out side for the dorrs to open...) so delighted!! Thanks to all


    Probably "saw" you today, I was in the precinct Boots from 9.30am (till about 11:rolleyes: ) Glad you did well, we got lots too, managed to get a No7 P&P Set and a weekend bag plus loads of other bits. Hopefully sorted for lots of teachers pressies and kids party gifts plus most of family pressies for this years birthdays. Sad seeing my points go but I'm loving sitting here admiring all my goodies.

    tin-tin says the target for getting orders sorted is friday...i asked fri am, pm? He says no idea that's just what he heard, so presumes it is close of business!

    Orders will be sorted for then

    However, depending on what stock is left after orders are sorted out...may go 75% online again or may be shipped to stores or beckton clearance

    He added...if your order says processed you *should be fine*

    :eek: :eek: I got confirmation e-mail from payapl at 3.05am and order confirmation from boots.com at 3.10am, but my order is showing as 'we have received your order'.

    Better go out and buy everything again tomorrow just in case, if I can find the stuff.

  • Mine shows exactly the same as yours and I am also worried it is not going to turn up. However, I rang my bank and the order amount is showing on their system (and not showing as available on my bank account) so I am hopeful :)

    I've asked this question a few times too! I take it no one visits these stores from here. :confused:


    Hi

    I go to the St Albans store sometimes as I work there. Didn't go in there today as I wasn't working- went to Luton instead.

    I think the last time i went there was on 2nd Jan.

    Thank you!:T

    A huge thank you to everyone who has posted the often-forgotten-but-very-useful information, in answer to questions, such as "What can you buy with a Blinkie that won't cost much?", "What's on special offer?", "How do you .../where do you .../can you ........ - there is always someone with the answer.

    A massive thankyou to crazyposhgal who has worked her bloody socks off for us, and without whom we would be in a rare ol' state!

    In the words of Kate Winslett, or almost, I'd like to thank the bus driver who took me to Lakeside, the one who took me back, and stopped the bus long enough for us to alight without falling over, my DH for taking us to and from the bus stop, and anyone else who knows me.

    Thank you. :love::love::love:

    HEAR HEAR....and a big thankyou to you too SS for keeping us so entertained. :T .....oh & of course for giving us the 'Blinkie'

    Thanks broclo :) So we can assume 75% won't start again (if it starts!) til Friday?

    horwich - hardly any sale stuff left...

    I nipped in this morning, first thing, and it was HEAVING! There was one woman who'd taken her own bin liners and was struggling with them across the car park. And loads of people with Asda trolleys overflowing. One woman had about 20 of everything!!! Madness.

    I only went in for a prescription, but still came out with a few goodies.

  • Just wanted to add before I doze off that I ventured over to BROUGHTON this evening and it is totally EMPTY!! So any North West bootsers....I really wouldn't bother going there! LOL
    I walked out with one No 7 nail varnish got with a blinkie. :rotfl:

    Anyone know whether Bromborough is empty? What about Wrexham?
