    What happened to the OOTW being 'half price or better' ...or was it just another of my Boots dreams? :o

    Anyway, I'm leaving this: I've still got a good Elle supply & I don't need a plastic handbag.

    I'll repeat that to myself regularly until stocks run out, then sulk because I'll have changed my mind too late........ confusion, the latest de-motivator ;)

    LOL I'll do this as well. But, after all, not a great bargain, especially with it coming the day after all of those extra points were available; now if they went on sale yesterday that may have pursuaded me. I have bought these on OOTW for the past 2 years and my 3 girls have loved them for Christmas. I think I'll wait and see if there is anything more tempting.

    I'm giving it a miss too :( The willpower I have had to have throughout this in not buying something just for the sake of buying it. It's been frightening!

    Me too, the only thing I've bought from Boots so far was the men's No7 OOTW. Even some things on 342 aren't that cheap and my local store is only small with a limited range so I never manage to get the really cheap bargains that some others do. It doesn't have a points machine either.

    On the xmas mailing they sent out it says the OOTW will be half price or better. I guess if they reduce the Elle set by a third and put it on 3 for 2 then it kind of is better than half price (ie £52 for 3 sets = £17.33 each). Of course that logic only works if you buy three:rolleyes:

    Sanctuary and Mens no.7 were both half price and 342 so thats not the reason. Its a bit naughty when they have stated half price or better.

    I am told that next week is a camera offer of some description but as yet no further details.

    I'm glad I didn't dream it :rolleyes:
