    In my eyes SA's deserve every perk they can get....discounts and first dibs are in my eyes part if your pay.
    I'm still bitter about the greedy family with all the toys today. To take next to everything just isn't right. I appreciate some people use this kind if thing to make money but I still think some people took the biscuit!

    Still, my little boy has had great fun using his drill to build his new plane and helicopter

    I got today:

    boots footcare set
    black Toni and Guy minis bag
    silver big blow dry bag
    R+M mirror
    R+M mini brush set
    gold sanctuary bag set
    red brag photo book
    elc my first shop
    activity cube
    build your own plane and copter

    think that's it!
    If my words are missing letters then please excuse me....my keyboard is a tad dodgy!!

    Got quite a bit from the Teesside Park, Stockton store. plenty of birthday presents sorted, wanted some toys but nothing like that left. Anyone know what the stores in the Middlesbrough area are like for stock now?


    went to middlesbrough at 12 today, shelfs were clearing fast, no toys at all when i got there, just bits and pieces of smellies, lots of cups, photo bits, no big sets other than quite a few of the Chilli pepper bags.

    But the way it was going i doubt much will be left now.


    How was teesside park think there will be much left? was thinkin of callin there 2moro..

    Have no idea about the Redcar store, but the Guisborough boots was rubbish.

    Just had to pop into Kingsgate EK on the way home from picking up dd from tae kwon do. There was nothing but empty shelves! I did buy the OH one of those chocolate xmas tree slabs tho', he was a bit miffed he never got one off Santa lol.
    Lo and behold though, the clearance section at the back had some reduced S&G! Got the handwash and footsoak thingy (green stuff) for a quid each! There were 2 or 3 left so if anyone's interested they're open for another 16 minutes! :)

    I was in the teesside park store bout 1030ish shelves were clearing fast but were constantly been restocked. The SA's couldn't even get out of the door without been harassed to see what was in the boxes they had. Heard a SA say it was the craziest she had ever seen the sale. Might be worth a pop in to see what they have.

    Leave the boots staff alone - they are allowed perks of the job and if they get bin bags full then fine.

    How is that different to any of us getting a load of stuff to last us through all the events of the year?

    Wendywoo has done me a huge favour today by getting me some items as i couldnt make it, she probably got some for other people too, someone would have seen her and thought - she's gonna ebay that. NO she's helping others out, out of the goodness of her heart
    .
    So please dont assume that anyone with bags and bags full are just in it to make a profit. Not everyone is like that. They could also be helping others out to like family with small kids who cant make it. Granted - there will always be those who try and sell on ebay, but thats life. You win some you lose some the important thing is you live to fight another day.

    As for the SA she could have been more tactful and said - No we didnt have any on stock and let you go on your way.


    I still wanna see some boots stash piccies :)
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
    :T fortune with those less fortunate :T
    :T than themselves - you know who you are!

    In Blackburn Mall there wasn't a great deal, but to be honest I wasn't intending to bother but as it was open at 8.30 when I was passing it would've been rude not to go in, anyway, I got
    A pink make-up bag Ted Baker (it's gorgeous stuff)
    A boots chinese looking shopping bag with fruity shower gels/body lotion
    A boots bag with body butter/shower gels etc
    A coin purse and key holder by celia birtwell
    A box of crackers
    A jar of strawberry conserve with dish and spoon
    £16.75, so I was well pleased, they had some of the no7 boxes but I didn't bother, there was a woman with 2 massive bags of stuff.
