Boots Grabbit Bargains Part 47 - Post your finds here

xdaisyx

well i thought i'd report that in the sale section here, they have/are turning the prices around on the shelves, you know the little price tag things, im sure theres a name for them lol anyway, seems a strange thing to do on a sat afternoon so my guess is they are preparing for monday price changes

I couldn`t see any in C Square, and didn`t look at Aintree!! If your really after one why not try and phone? It`s a legitimate ask to see if the store has the free gift! I will report back about Chesire Oaks GWP`s although I tend not to look too hard due to standing out a bit looking at cosmetics:eek:

Hot drinks woould be good, maybe a coffee shop joined on like Borders, with free Wi-Fi and a Blinkie with every drink? :rolleyes:

Hi

Boots used to have coffee shops many years ago - my local did anyway.

Can anyone else remember them.

Belfast used to have a coffeeshop on the top floor as well, but it closed down sometime last year. The space it was in now just sits empty, you'd think they would fill it with stock or something .

Funny you should say this. I am on Boots viewpoint panel, and their last survey wanted opinions on them offering other 'Promotion' in there stores. These include, Post Ofice, Jewellers, Banks, coffe shop, Nail bar, and others that I can't remember. So it is something that is obviously under consideration. Maybe they take their ideas from here:rotfl: :rotfl:

P.P.S Does anyone else on here go to Sheffield/Meadowhall Boots?[/quote]

Me Me Me Me I do I do! went to Meadowhall yesterday and had a bit of a nightmare with the SS tills to, got the bojouis(sp) lip gloss thing and some reduced no7 but was too chicken to ask for another blinkie incase they noticed on my reciept.

They've got some of the other GWP at the Moor aswell although i'm pretty sure they'd not let you get away with them without buying anything from that range, they've also got the S+g gwp :T

Yes, the one in Swansea main branch was wonderful & I can't praise the cafe staff highly enough. They were so friendly when I was recovering from an operation. They and the cafe are sadly missed.

Like Belfast's former cafe it is now just empty & wasted space.

Lots of very cheap clearance items in High Chelmer Boots today for you local Essex girlies on here (Toni and Guy summer boxes (?), Mark Hill & James Brown hair stuff, Botanics, Peppa Pig bubble bath, soaps & wash mitts etc, Noddy stuff, Miko nail kits, teeth whitening kits etc, etc, etc. Some reduced electricals too. Big bun-fight to get to look at the stuff as everyone was grabbing it! :eek: Anyone on here?! :whistle:

Anyway, enough waffle, big boxes of Pantene blonde / brunette hair products with 3 items in each - around £4 something (remembering 100 points wyb Pantene) BUT... lots of Herbal Essences Shampoo @ 88 pence and Herbal Essences Conditioner @ 86 pence (again with 100 points wyb Herbal Essences - Yay!!) Bought 4 of each, leaving plenty for others. Had a scout about the shop - no pantene sachets stocked, not even a place for them on the shelf. No reduced No 7 unfortunately either :rolleyes:

LOADS OF PURPLE OLAY GWP for those interested.

One singular "Admit you want me" GWP S & G set on the shelf.

Plenty of 50% off sale stock left too for those interested. HTH x
