Nothing left at Riverside Boots in Norwich today.

Loads and loads of ted baker sets the spray and body wash ones for £2 at manchester loads of the stripy mugs, a few chilli pepper pots, loads of bags with a scrub thing and a bodywash for £1.25
a few star trek playing cards, some lavander sets that were £10
and some wrapping paper but not loads and that's about it apart from the odd tube of biscuits.

The little extracts boxes ( cranberry ) were still in Speke at £1.20, I reckon that made them 80% off? Still some wrapping paper, long tins of biscuits, Star trek gift sets and mugs and ITNG wooden toys. In clearance there were quite a few travel sets e.g eye mask and pillow, water bottle and spray, document wallet and luggage strap.

So how much were the Cranberry boxes to begin with? I'm wondering if they are now 90% off, which may mean the 90% off sale has started? Some stores won't post signs, and there is so little left in many stores, that it would be easy to miss.

Can anyone who's bought something today verify if it was 75% off, or was it more?

Since so many on here got or wanted hatboxes, I thought I'd mention that S&G must've gotten a lot of negative feedback from people who couldn't find one -- here's what they said in their January email:

"P.S. We are really sorry if you didn’t get one of those
Big Thrill Hat Boxes. We will make more next year. And can we just agree to be friends and leave it at that? We feel horrible that some people didn’t find them, but they’re gone, and it’s time to move on."

The good news is it looks like they will be back next Christmas!

All S&G third off at Boots right now. So you could probably get most of the contents of the hat box for your £20. I did get a hat box (2 acutally ), and while I love S&G, there are 2 or 3 items in there that I prob won't use.

I have noticed that some boots have taken some items out of the 75% sale and put it in clearance. I saw a passport holder today for £3.50 not sure what it was to start with!

It was still 75% off in the Boots I went into today as I got a few more things to put away.

still 75% in manchester too, we stocked up on the ted baker sets as OH thinks they're lovely, plus had to pick six up for my mum ( she has three teenage boys living with her, two her own and one foster son ) so a very smelly household with no sprays and body wash

Went in to the Sutton coldfield store today and all they had left were Mum survival kits - all opened so not sure contents are correct, the red and orange thin tubes/tims of biscuits, star trek travel kits, 2010 photo calendars and a few empty boxes with contents awol. Was quite disappointed as im sure even when stock went into the 90% sale last year there were more things left.
