I have lost out on things aswell because I didnt realise that some things had to be in our favourites before the sale went online!

I was waiting for the Baileys ice cream maker and other people have said they are in there lists and in stock but when I search it doesnt come up because it wasnt in my list :rolleyes:

Are the perfume sets included in the 75% sale? Loads of Issey Miyake sets in my local store, but they are £40!!!

I have just been to a Boot Chemist (a diddy boots) and they say that the main store had made a mistake and had not read their email.

There were a couple of people with trolleys full of stuff at my local this morning. I bet they got a shock at the checkout!!

Unfortunately no. Last year during the 75% sale I went to the perfume area only to be told they are not even half price (Dior, Prada, Versace).

Oh forgot to mention, someone here mention that the mini perfume (the one that have 4 mini) does go into 75% sale, so worth checking out.

Whenever I go in Boots people are still buying stuff from the 50% off sale and so you can see why Boots are prolonging these sales for as long as they can, particularly as the "footfall" of people visiting the stores has been so low.


And the low footfall must be bad as shown by the sheer amounts of reduced food on the food section. Normally it is one or two items - the other day it appeared the vast majority was reduced.

It's a pain though !

Marks and Sparks did a mega markdown last weekend and all sales stuff has now gone but I suppose they want people to buy new season stuff and not be distracted by racks of sale items.

Boots doesn't have the same problem although I am sure they won't want Xmas gifts clogging up the stores in February so the 75% sale will happen in the fullness of time at least.
