    And so the staff should get the first pickings!!
    They don't get paid well, are treated badly by both the customer and by most part...the companies that they work for.
    Don't begrudge them a little perk, now and again. Believe me....it doesn't happen enough!!
    Nobody forced me to work for Boots, it was a contract freely entered into by both sides. I would be a little annoyed if having rushed to the local sales, all the real bargains were sitting under the counter. If you have ever read the security rules of such companies, you would know it was a disciplinary offence.
    Been away for a while.

    Sorry if I am just repeating others, I have skipped through a few pages of this thread.
    Just wondered if anyone in the know had any idea if the sale will ever be back online or not? We popped into the big Boots in Meadowhall, Sheffield on Saturday and there was nothing left. I know why now!!

    Any ideas? I used to work for Boots but only as a Xmas Temp so never experienced the mad sales rush x

    Mine is still showing as processing!! I dont think its ever going to get here, its all at full price and if it gets here I have to call them to get refund of 75%
    And the first order number just disappeared, hence the full price order.
    Always on the hunt for a bargain
  • Thankyou THEFIZZ. Will be in bright and early that day.

    Mines arrived :)
    Via DPD and oops I think id prefer DPD to do all my deliveries if that man delivers again hehe
    Two huge boxes :D both weighing 27.9kgs each oops
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
    I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together
