    how do you know whats in the 50% sale ?

    I'm just looking at the Christmas 3 for 2 items that go to 50%, not looking at perfume sets or anything that may go on sale.
  • I went into my small local Boots store today and they seem to have already marked down some stuff - a couple of small Ted Baker sets from memory.
  • Just wondering firstly can you use your points on sale items, and secondly whether you can order online for store delivery and then pay with your advantage card points in store when you collect or do you have to pay by card?

    Sorry, I'm getting a bit confuzzled. Is it from 12 noon instore tomorrow or just online??
    My Nan is going in to pick up my xmas present tomorrow that is being sent to store, thats why I'm wondering as it will be cheaper for her if she doesnt go down in the morning as planned.
    I've asked for urban decay eye pallette and urban decay eyeshadow primer. Do you think they are likely to be reduced?
    Thanks in advance for your help x

    Online only from 12 and no they wont be reduced as they are part of the UD make up range and not a gift or xmas stock
  • Thanks for that info might have to go instore then to use up my points. Sorry if its been answered before but does the sale start instore tomorrow or is it just online?

    This is why I have told DH to hold off buying me stuff from Boots for my Christmas this year, he leaves everything till the last minute, typical man, and I can't see the point buying something one day and then the following day it's going to be half price. I've bought loads from boots over the last couple of months and it really annoys me to see it all in the sale but I would be even more annoyed if it was reduced the next day iykwim lol

    Anyway, a couple of years ago I got loads and loads of stuff in the sale online, think it was the 75% off and I spent about £200, so got £800 worth, it really set me up for the following Christmas. I don't know whether to hold tight for the 75% sale to start or the 50% off sale. Last year I couldn't get on the site, it kept crashing!!

    hmmmmmm decisions, decisions!
  • oh no! im working 12-4 tomorrow! Is it wrong to phone in sick because i dont want to miss the 50% sale?
  • ooooh I'm tempted, but theres not a lot I need, so may hold off and take my chances in the 75% off sale. I intend to go shopping instore in boots as I find the boots website just awful, with the constant crashing, it stresses me out to the max, and I'm not sure I want to spent Christmas eve like that!
