    I got to mine at opening ime yesterday after remembering seeing someone say something about the 13th only to find everything still half price :confused:

  • Merry Hill store this morning had loads of those chilli £35 bags, very little santuary, not a S&G sale in sight, very little toys, loads of the "old granny style" stuff (sorry if you like them!!), a few of the No7 £60 loads, a few of the little gok ones and probably other stuff - definately not as much choice as last weeek, so folk are still buying at 50%, I being greedy and holding out as no dont NEED anything, just WANT stuff!!

    Same as me, there is not one thing in boots that I actually need right now...it's all about want want want:p

    No new toiletries challenge - use up the stash first!

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Decided to just buy what I wanted at 50% and be done with it rather than risk not getting what I wanted to save a few pounds.

    Having made me decision instore to buy there and then and stop checking stock, in my haste to get all the things I [STRIKE]wanted[/STRIKE] needed before the parking ticket clocked into the next hour, I stupidly forgot to hand over my vouchers for extra points spending, or split my shopping up to maximise No7 vouchers.

    When she handed over my 1 No7 voucher at the end of a large spend, I realised what I'd done and was mortified. I mentioned it to the cashier about refunding everything and doing separate shops to get more vouchers, and she looked mortified too. She point blank refused to give me more vouchers.

    Decided to leave it - have far too many toiletries and the No7 vouchers end up costing me money (£1.50 here and there all adds up) and the total points spend, oh well. What's done is done.

    So just a reminder to you all, vouchers vouchers vouchers! :rotfl:

    Do you know what the toy stock is like at the fort? x

    Hi Karen

    The fort has been dreadful anytime I have been there tbh. Have next to nothing left so unless they have put anything out in the last 7 days or so then its a no go.

    Have you managed to find anywhere good? Everywhere I have been is terrible practically nothing worth buying left.

    Glasgow sauchiehall street stock - was in here earlier today, still some bits and bobs left. lots of the sanctuary hexagonal box, chilli pepper bags, gok sets and fcuk men sets. spied about 10 of the sanctuary bidadiri sets near the tills, hoping there will be a few of those left next week as at £4 they will be a bargain!

    couldnt see any of the reduced bits of soap n glory that were mentioned on another thread which is what i went in for :(

    Thanks for the update laura. Looks like the whole of glasgow is the same. There stock must be selling well up here compared to down south. I can only presume that because of the really bad weather down south people havent ventured out as much.

    Not good for us but hey, what can you do.
