Hi Mrs T, thanks for the list,
I was in the Fort tonight just before closing, had some nice stuff left
I also noticed,
Hackett sets
Sanctuary Relax & Unwind
Lee Stafford
Gok Wan Travel Treats
Country Living stuff

Store opens at 10 so thinking of going to town first, then Motorway to the Fort,
might see you there

Hi orangelily

Oooh now theres a thought I would have thought that it might have opened earlier but forgot to ask. Damn sister rushing me lol.

I didnt notice the lee stafford sets. I love the dehumidifer.

I may just see you there right enough Although my mum is coming now so that is some reinforcement along with my 2yr old in the pram. Its good for carrying the bags but a bit of a nuisance for going down the aisles.

We also cant get there till just after 9am as mum has to take sisters kids to school as she is just out the hospital after a major op.

I hope there is stuff left when we get there

:rotfl:

you can but i have to warn you he doen't lift the seat when he pee's:rolleyes: But that is my one and only complaint

i'm now in bed and i bought the laptop up to check this thread before I went to sleep (In case I missed out on something, what I'm not exactly sure!)...now I'm wondering whether there is even the slightest chance that some S&G might come into stock in the sale and whether to stay up to check

can anyone help? how do i pay in store for my online order, would like to pay with points, but just did a trial order and still had to input cc details and site info tells me that i will pay for goods and just pick them up in the store? am i missing something? thought it might be a way to pay with my points?
I have a sleeping baby beside me, am sat in bed with a double strength coffee and lap top. Bring it on, I'm ready!!

As far as I know you cannot pay with points for an online order even if it is ordered online to collect in store. Points are only accepted for items purchased instore (sadly!).

I can't see many stores really enforcing that, they want to offload this stuff, and all the buyer would have to do is do a second transaction. Mind you, I wouldn't mind Boots halting mass eBay buyers, but a lot of regular shoppers mass buy, too, because they're a bit obsessed, lol. So folks, don't start fretting, you'll get your goods!

At least it should give all the regulars and the workers a fairer chance and as far as requeing gos the sa's arnt daft

Just to let you all know I work for a boots store in the north east and just prior to closing tonight the store manager recieved an email advising that all 75% sale items will be limited to £50 maximum spend per customer per transaction this is apparently aimed at stopping bulk purchasing and reselling on ebay

I do sort of understand this if it relates to spend on an item, like if people are buying say 20 of the same thing perhaps its for resale and I can see Boots want to stop that on one hand - but on the other they still get their money so seems a bit odd to refuse a sale - also if people want for example (err what can I think of) a No7 set, a Gok set, a foody giftset and a couple of large toys perhaps then that might take it over £50 and I cant see how Boots can refuse to sell that as its not looking like someone would be buying that for resale is it? I think if stores enforce this it will probably only be if people are loading up trolleys of loads and loads of the same thing.

right decision made i'm off to bed with the laptop, will stay online till just after midnight and see what happens then sleep for a couple of hours i think.
