    We need to be prepared for all sneaky tactics, so you were quite right to alert peeps - but I wonder if staff got them today, cos tomorrow is going to be The Day???:confused::confused:

    Does anyone know if this has happened before, that staff get first bite of the sweet and succulent cherry the day before the sale goes public? BTW, not knocking staff for doing this, everyone hopes for a few advantages in their job!

    xx

    We are just gonna have to send you out on a sortie.
    Can just imagine you and your bootsing pal, going out incognitio, checking if this is true,
    trying to keep under the radar.....
    go Agent Scarlet, the boots forum needs fresh info.:)
  • Can someone please explain what the Herbal Essence deal is please, can't see anything at .com.

    Thanks

    I remember when I got my stuff in the 75% sale last year and the Sa was whinging to me that the staff don't get any speacial treatment and have to wait until their break to get stuff. (Leeds this is) It probably varies from store to store though. :confused:

    Probably a way to distract you .................while the rest of the staff carry out the best sale stock...
    and put it into huge trucks, so that they can get it home easily.:rotfl:

    used a voucher today which ended 3176 summit like that got 250 points

    Think that was one of the magic vouchers, looks like it may have been corrected then. Used my last one yesterday and it gave me 500 points.:)

    Blast, wrote a long post and has disappeared!

    Wombled my first blinkie which was lying looking lonely on the unmanned No7 counter. It matched my Balance fluid perfectly. No7 SA appeared and I asked can I use this voucher to buy this lotion on clearance? yes she said, so I suppose it's ok if she said so!;)

    In summary then,
    SHOP1
    No7 Illuminating highlighter lotion. £5.26
    26p after blinkie.
    SHOP2
    PAntene sachets x2 97p
    Deo stick £2.63
    Floss £2.05
    No7 Intelligent balance day fluid £4.53
    200 offer points plus 16 normal points
    Used blinkie £6.62 to pay so earned blinkie.

    Baby started crying so had to abandon shop so left with two blinkies left to spend.

    Small local Boots had lots of Sanctuary on clearance that looked like they had come out of some gift sets, Biddari souffle, Kyphi body butters, hand lotion, scrub and cream for half normal price. If I don't get my sets on sale will pop back and see if they are still there! Lots of gold GWP No7 for £6.50
  • Just got back from bootsing... SAs were acting very strange, loads of them in the half price gift section comparing makeup sets and discussing which ones to get... by the looks of things they were picking them up and taking them somewhere....????
