Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 47 - Post your finds here

Deb19742004

Has anyone been in the Belfast stores today? Have they restocked their shelves. I was there yesterday about 11am got a few things. Didnt see any R&M boxes! Did anybody get one? They had loads of No7 boxes but I feel they are overpriced!! Got few barbie & HSM sets for DDs birthday parties and teachers sorted for xmas (white collection). Got bobbipin eyeshadow set and lipgloss for myself, golf mug and footie dvd for DH, Coty sets for auntie and granny next year and royal jelly set for mum. Hubby bit disappointed didnt get many toiletries for him lol but tbh there wasnt really much there except razor and watch sets which I knew he wouldnt want. Last year I got the TB washbag with goodies for a fiver, bargain! There were loads of yardley sets, some calendars, mango sets, so perfume sets and pleasure sets (not the perfume!!!) lol

All toys had gone worth looking at. Last year I got loads in the sale toy wise. Did anyone get instore early and get any? No toys were reduced upstairs instore as far as i could see. Managed to get perfume sets half price on xmas eve too so majority of xmas pressies for relatives sorted for xmas 2009!:T

bluewater had so much of the original stock that had sold out at 50% elsewhere but did not go yesterday. managed to go to my local and it was frantic. got there at 11am and there was a mad rush for the shelves and people on their mobiles telling others about it. Thanks to the original thread to give me the heads up about the 14th!! I spent £46 and had 4 bags crammed, there is no way I could of carried more. Hubby was really pleased with his gillette razor and sports watch for £3!! I bought a lot for my own stock - i.e. Charles Worthington tins that were £12 now £3 - the products on their own were worth at least £8 - so my savings will last throughout the year. There was only 1 No7 makeup box set left - which baffled me, as there were loads of different sets and bags and boxes etc the day before. Glad I bought the key items at 50% on boxing day and waited for the usual boxed smellies at 75%. Definitely have enough for birthday and xmas presents next year.

What good is the boots website if you can buy online!!! Do you think there will be anything left at the weekend as I cant go and look till then, and I really want to get my dad a birthday present? Anyone know what Telford or Merry Hill are like? xx

I am so happy with all my bargains. It's like crimbo all over again:)

yesterday, I managed to get this little lot for about £50 (ssh, don't tell my DH;) )and 1500 points:

TB in a tub bag
No7 P&P s&b collection (contains 250 points voucher)
L'oreal GWP (thrown in for good measure:rotfl: )
TS addict to go bag
3 x S&G glove story (woooo, I was soooo happy to find these beauties:D )
3 x med selection box (I've opened one set and the body butter is gorgeous)
No7 skincare treat (contains 250 points voucher)
FCUK night out bag (very glam:D )
royal jelly toiletery bag
fresh! deights set
luki panda bag
cute travel bag
No7 party purse (contains 250 points voucher)
luki panda lip purse
and a few other items, that I've forgotten already, lol

I earned lots of blinkies and redeemed some on these reduced items: No7 intelligent balace day fluid, 2 x nail polish, 2 x skinlights. I paid pennies after blinkies:j I also found some 17 on clearance. I got 2 eyeshadows for 60p + a silver clutch GWP 0.00

roll on the 90%off sale:rotfl: I hope I have enough energy left for that one...if it happens that is. I can't see there will be much left after yesterday.

hi

i placed 2 orders online yesterday at a rediculous time in the morning, the 1st order shows as "order received" and the second has dispatched - when i looked on the help page the "order received" is that they have received your orders (obviously) and that it cannot be changed at this stage. i had confirmation of both orders by email, still a bit nervous though about the first order as this has the items i really want on it, although when husband spoke to sa on phone yesterday about this order she said that it had gone through fine.

I was told by a SA in my local store that the staff got to choose what they wanted the day before the sale started. Maybe that explains why everything had disappeared in your local store:rolleyes:

Here is a list of vouchers inside current christmas sets so you can take these out to use. These vouchers cannot be used against christmas gift sets .

If you spend £5 in store you get a blinkie which also cannot be used against christmas sets but there is a selection of N7 stuff reduced at the normal counters.

HTH.
