  • Went to Castlepoint, Bournemouth just before 8pm tonight. They had loads of Gok sets, several travel sets and Chilli weekender sets in the gold overnight bag, but not much else. There were a few wooden "in the Night Garden" pop up toys too.

    Happy hunting!

    Hi all, hope everyone got what they wanted or needed today! Did anyone manage to get any men's edt gift sets? I wanted Hugo Boss and DKNY Men, but they had removed them from the sale shelves in Nottingham. Asked an assistant and she told me they were not in the 75% off sale. Wonder why? In the end got 2 of the small sets of sample mens stuff and a reduced Blue Jeans at Broadmarsh which was half price, but not in the sales stuff.

    I dont think they ever go 75% especially since they can probably keep them for valentines, unless they have xmas trees or something on them.

    she hasn't lost the ol' Bootsing magic :p:D
  • I'd be worried that they would refuse to sell it back after refunding! They might want to keep it for themselves:eek:

    I hadn't thought of that, maybe it was a good thing that SA refused to let me refund and buy back immediatly

Then went to the two nearest big Boots - nothing. Was so glad called in wee one as wasn't going to thinking they would have nothing left. They had a few Gok left at 5ish today if anyone interested. Let me know and I could even go over in morning again and try to get them if Moneysaver unable to.

    I'm confused as to how you all got so much stuff! I went to my first Boots store at 10am and there were only lavander sets, mugs and chocolate coins left?! It's not a tiny shop at all but we have hardly had any 50% off since before new year.
    Went to two other small Boots during the day and was also faced with lots of mugs and chocolate coins.

    Pleased for you all but I am a little jealous. :o
  • hi

    Sounds like you might have made a mistake by not going until 10am, by that time the early birds have cleared the place out. I was there at 7.50am for the 8am opening to make sure I got what I wanted
    *wonders when they will make dressing gowns acceptable day wear?*
    No new toiletries challenge - use up the stash first!
