Hi Vicster.

I am vegan and saw a "Goodworks" aromatherapy gift set in my local Boots that looked vegan.
Their products are definately not animal tested, but you might want to check the ingredients as some companies sneak in lanolin, honey etc that would make it not vegan.
Their website is here: http://www.goodworksaromatherapy.com/

I didnt have time to read the ingredients, but will have a look tomorrow.

The Goodworks travel companion gift set was in a shiney red wash bag. Think it has a scrub, shower gel etc and full price was £16 so should be £4??
Good luck,
MM x

That's brilliant, thank you! I'll have a look on their site and see if I can work it out. That particular gift set looks great on the Boots site. Fingers crossed!

possibly. Although there has been someone pretty much every day claiming its the next day.

Glad it wasnt today though, I didnt get up till 7.50 and store opens at 8 hahaha

Think I might have to go on a reiki (sp?) later though to one store. They had loads of gok wan sets last week and thats all I want off the website really so if there are loads still in store I will just wait till the morning. Saves me having to set my alarm for 3am that way!

Hi GF, Sorry I had to rush off before I got a chance to explain what I meant: I just get annoyed at the people who say 'My sister/mate/husband knows someone at Boots HQ who said the sale absolutely, definitely, swear-on-their-mother's-life, bet-you-a-grand, totally starts tomorrow'. I just don't believe it. If they had genuinely been told as a fact, they would come back on here the next day (after it hadn't actually started) and say 'oops, sorry about that - I got it wrong'. But nothing more is mentioned about it.
Although it's no biggie in the grand scheme of things .......

just in prep for tomorrow, does anyone know of any vouchers (from the machines if poss) to remember to use? I have the double points one (that I got through the post), think I also have a 150 extra points on a £35 spend or something but thats all.....can I use it with other vouchers? If so then what are the best ones.....noticed that instore the other day there were bonus 250 points on certain spends available from the computers

Basically can I use multiple vouchers for the same purchase....and if so then what are the best ones

usually site goes down about 11:15....then can be back up and running anytime between 00:30-3:00ish....and when it does come back up its usually very problematic when you try to order......error messages galore :rolleyes:

I ordered one of these that arrived yesterday. Really nice for the money with great products (although a mug was cracked so need to refund or return or put up with only 1 mug)
The use by dates are mostly June 2010, Biscuits were March 2010. The tea is loose leaf tea not tea bags and the coffee is for a cafetierre

Thanks so much! Good to know about the coffee and tea, might not be the right gift for me after all.

Still lots of sale stuff in Dundee (High St), I was really surprised. Lots of Ted Baker, Sanctury and other smelly stuff, Xmas chocs, LOADS of photo albums and frames (which I am after!), quite a few toys, Playdoh sets etc. My auntie works there and confirmed 75% off tomorrow, opens at 8.30am.

Thanks for the info. Though I'm gutted. I planned to gow ith my Mum tomorrow but I am rotten with the cold and won't be going anyplace. Just hope some more stuff shwos online.

Last week when we all got excited, it came back at 3.10 ish. If my memory serves me, it was about that time last year.

Perhaps it's like those people who like to type in "IT STARTED!!!!" at 2am while we are all frantically refreashing .com, even though it hasn't really started. That is sooo funny and original, it just never gets old, lol. I'm not smacking down people who've done that, but I do give a little sigh when I see it yet again ... then go on hitting refresh, lol.

Edit: Since I can't remember the people who've done that, please don't take offense if it was you! lol
