  • they are keeping the same one as there already is for another week :( Aparnetly because it is such a good offer they dont want anyone to miss out! Nothing to do with the fact it is not half price and as good as it could be then! Another SA told me last week when she was putting them out that she was surprised about the price as they went down to £25 last year!!!
    What a con, no fcuk bag no s&g, am gutted! Hope they wont keep doing this till they run out.

    On the bright side the points event is on next thursday, buy 3 pay £80 add another £20 and you have £24 in points or £34 if shop online!

    I already got them at the end of last week, but good idea for others who missed I suppose, still think its cheeky :mad:

    Yeah especially as it defeats the purpose of "offer of the WEEK"

    Are you ready for this guys? I went into my local boots to enquire about the offer of the week tommorrow and was told, oh that will be the babyliss straigtners, I said no not the electrical one the other one..........guess...........

    Last year straighteners were one of the OOTW (along with a camera and a hairdryer) so i guess its not that unexpected.

    Apart from the Sanctuary one the OOTW's all seem to be the same as last year, so if that continues there should be a Ruby&Millie one and 2 FCUK ones (male and female) still to come. ETA: and a St Tropez one.

    Although i hope the trend doesn't continue as there was no S&G one last year:(

  • No way, not again! I don't even think the set is worth £40 - and I don't have the need to house 3 of them! They are going against their words BIG TIME. I thought they said there would be something NEW EVERY WEEK and it would be BETTER THAN HALF PRICE. Not happy!

    Major disappointment time i am afraid. Just spoke to OH who works for Boots and she says she has been told its hair straighteners of some description and at better than half price, so no exciting gift sets this week.
    Its true to form for when there is a mega event evening with no 3 for 2 offer again.

    Hi all, Mr B is being very naughty this year, but I must say ive saved an awful lot of money, not spending money on things I want rather than need, shocking for a bootser i know lol:rotfl:.
    You laugh because I'm different......I laugh cause I just farted!

    Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. (A.C)

    The no7 set isn't the new OOTW though, the straighteners are.

    I wonder what straighteners it will be, last year it was these ones i think:
