Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 47 - Post your finds here

wanna-b-rich

I got my order this morning. Ordered at 4:00 am paid via PayPal. Didn't manage to get everything I wanted (would've loved some of the S&G sets - but hey didn't we all) but happy with what I got. Thanks to all of you who posted through out the night on the refugees board it did make staying awake a little easier.

On the 14/1 I went into my local Boots and managed to grab a few items that were out of stock on .com. There was loads there and I thought niavely that there would still be some in the 90% sale! I went back in yesterday and the shelves were bare:(

However, there was an SA putting out a cage of toys who said she still had a few more cages to put out, but that they were going out randomly throughout the day to stop a few greedy aggressive customers from having the lot! She then went onto say was there anything in particular I wanted as she'd go and get it if it was easily accessible - sadly there were no P&P sets nor S&G, did manage to get a R&M Vanity Case though, so really pleased.

Also, there were loads of Pantene Travel Size Shampoos reduced to 50p, so naturally I had a few of those to pay for my R&M case.

sophisticated.

Firstly I'm very jealous of everyone who has got dispatched e-mails, none of my orders went through But well done to all

I went to Swansea Quadrant today and the sale section was pretty bare. LOADS of wrapping paper, gift tags etc left however so I think these will still be around for 90% off. They still also had lots of No7 night time mini colour compact, which I think is quite pretty for £2.50. They also had gingerbread houses, loads of mugs with cuddly toys inside, hacket gift sets, boots box of delights, book ends, keyrings, St Tropez shimmer puff and lots of toys (however I don't know if these are actually included in the 75% off? They had green parcel stickers on though)

I did spot one R&M make up on the go set left on the shelf! I bought it out of surprise that it was still there! But opened it up and it does look nice Does anyone know what the cheapest thing I could use the 250 points on R&M colour cosmetics is? Would like to use it with blinkie.

The No7 clearance stand has been moved from the No7 counter to upstairs in the middle of sale. Loads of bargains including twinkle gloss for £4.43, day/night creams for £5.65 and the lip and eye screens for £2.80. I stupidly bought two with a blinkie and forgot about the 3-for-2 on No7, argh!! Loads of No7 skincare and creams too but can't remember the names of them all.

Would these have earned the 100 free points being reduced items?

Just realised they were Travel size so I guess not...

The SA put the blinkie through first, having taken both from my hand at the same time. Another time I'll try to remember to hand the blinkie over only after the points have been added. Thanks for the tip

ALWAYS give them a points voucher first, then the money-off voucher.

100 Points on all Pantene, so this would work, if you look that is what the poster seems to have done.

My trip to London coincided with the 75% sale. So, got up early went to Piccadilly Circus where they had loads and Oxford St too. At Piccadilly Circus SA was a bit funny when I asked to pay in separate transactions to get the blinkies, so I just left it. She gave me two blinkies though. Went to Bond St later in the evening, that place was a mess, not much left.

My poor boyfriend - dragged him round every Boots I saw!

When I got back to Sheffield there was NOTHING in the sale, just wrapping paper. Glad I didn't wait til I got back. It was hard going trying to carry two massive Boots bags and luggage around the tube though!

Lots of reduced herbal essences in Ricoh Arena store, on normal shelves with reduced SEL, 88p for small coloured hair conditioner (orange bottle) and £1.44 for large bottle, got 5 yesterday, and then bought a hair colour with the points, so they were better than free! :-)

not a happy bunny today as my 5.30 am on wednesday order probably isnt arriving. ran cs to be told my order is pending but have to wait until site is up and running again and reorder. I had even got to the point of order where they say it was to be delivered on monday when the site crashed. Why dont they just send out the orders they have already got without us having to reorder again. Probably nothing will be left. Anyway i feel better after my moan

I really need another 1 of a toy that i got in my order today. I only ordered 1 for my ds but really could do with one for my nephew do you think they could send me another one when they send my missing item or do you think they would charge me p&p? It's not worth it though then as the item was only £2.50
