They will be 3 for 2 yes!
Because the 3 reduced palettes i bought were still 3 for 2!

I find that sometimes different SA's let you use vouchers etc, and some dont.
I had 2 different answers to the same query today! So, its always worth a try.

Often I find that too, its usually easier if I slip something in the middle of a bigger shop then it doesnt get noticed so much but spent around £100 in the sale and counting the days til payday now! So only pennies to spend.
Still at least will manage to use rest of my £5 vouchers on something else if I cant as they are dated end of month.

Just a quick thought. Does anyone think Boots are not complying with Trading Standards rules and regs by selling an item in store at 75% off but selling it online for the full price.

Hmm,not sure. Boots online is referred to as Boots.com always tho.
I have never considered it to not comply.
Every store has different items in clearance to another store, etc.

Every item will never be the same price.

Best thing to do is to go on Boots.com
Click on No7 and then look through everything listed priced LOW -HIGH,
Make a note of the items you like under about £8 and then ask for them if you cant find them instore. Theyll never be 'findable!' bcos theyre always in different sections.
Theres a nice No7 stand free mirror i noticed online:

Amongst many others i never noticed in the store!
Most probably were there tho!

Thanks for all your help Lisa. I have asked over on the £5voucher/snowie thread if any one has had any luck using it against the eye palatte.

Just back from Boots Kingsgate EK, they had Chocolate slabs, Star Trek cufflinks, rose and lavender sets, survival kits, chilli pepper 3 jar set, photo frames and tubes of biscuits. There was also a cranberry bath/smelly type set I had never seen before? I suspect all this stuff may get reduced further. Up in the clearance section they had lots of packs of Moxie tampons for 50p.

Im sorry I dont know how to do that.

But if you are quick it will be high on the list of grabbits as I have just posted on it.

If not just search Boots on the forum thats what I usually do.

Its called Boots No7 voucher. x

i know some stores have bits left, so will there be a 90% sale for these

I have read somewhere think it on here actually that the 75% sale runs up until (and including) 31st Jan. So maybe on the 1st anything left will be 90% can't see there being much though.

Haven't been on here previously but just wanted to report that London Colney Boots has nothing left really - two shelves if that of Cider gift sets and broken boxes. However, Welwyn Garden City still has a lot of men's gift sets, women's gift sets and chocolates. Also a selection of toys reduced as you walk in - not much but more than I've seen anywhere else.

Hope that helps someone.

I remember last year (I think) when the 90% sale was on I thought boots would only have xmas cards, wrap paper etc left, so popped in really early to see and found 2 ruby & millie makeup sets (white/beige nice case) reduced from £35 to about £4, so do check when the 90% sale is on (if it goes to 90%) just in case.
