    What do you think they are going to do with all these items that were brought out limited editions for Christmas and are now in stock online? Do you think they will deliver to stores before the end of the sale??????????? Seems a bit strange!

    Last January they canceled the after-Christmas sale online too, and they just kept the stuff full-price online all year until not long before Christmas, at which time they put it back down to half price!
  • might add them to my favourites and plan ahead for next year!
  • Went to Boots, piccadilly circus, London today loads of Gok set available at 10 pounds, some chocolate tree slabs. Bond street and Regent street had nothing. really apart from Christmas crackers.

    Hi,

    Just in case anyone has missed it, the survival boxes are pretty good value as the vitamin tablets are over £2 themselves. Some also have massage oils and plasters.!

    One also has a bell which my little one loves! Lol.

    :rotfl:remembering something similar with my cat- he used to go wild- it was like catnip!!

    But he did try to eat it (not good!)

    Does anyone know if they have any electricals instore included in the 75% off? its all marked at a max of 50% off and wondered if there were any price tag errors (I'm sure someone reported an electric tooth brush at something like 85% off last week) know its a rare chance but just had to ask...:o

    Same question with the kids clothes, they are currently marked 25 or 50%. does anyone know of they are reduced further? I've seen a few nice things but they are still
    abit too much.

    I went into Hull yesterday and they still had stuff left - I spotted Royal Jelly bags, Fresh sets in a clear plastic washbag, Belgian chocolates down to £1.50 (recommended!), the small fairtrade giftbags, biscuits, the big bars of chocolate, wrapping paper and cards. There were some other things too that I can't remember, including some men's sets. Probably not much less stock than what was available on day 1 of the sale at Heeley Retail park in Sheffield: there, when I was waiting outside, we could see through the window a member of staff loading stuff into a basket, piling it at the checkout, then going back for more - she took all the big stuff like the No 7 gift set. I don't mind staff getting the perks but what was particularly irksome was that there was another member of staff waiting in the queue outside - she said it was her day off, and although other staff members inside were aware she was there, they didn't let her in in advance, which I thought was a bit mean!

    If they were originally priced at over £10 you can still use the £3 off voucher in the baby & me mag that is available in most stores. By putting them trought as seperate transactions I have got several items for very very little and some even free (the 75% off christmas pj's)
