    Just wondering if anyone knows what the stock levels are like in Cannock, Walsall, Tamworth Ventura or The Fort at Birmingham? Was going to do a quick visit to the Cannock store this morning but the weather is horrid. Forecast more snow on Tuesday evening so probably won't make it anyway. TIA. :beer:
    Have been to Cannock not loads of stuff about 3 aisles worth am going to Walsall on 75% off cause usually do really well there hth

    Sorry to ask again, does anyone know what the stock levels are like in Slough? I havent been able to get to town for weeks! :)
    Slough is usually quite pleasant, no pushing or shoving but both times I have got there around 10/11am. :)

    I was there a couple of days ago - still quite alot of stuff - not sure what you are looking for - I still have my 50% stock, so might return these and get them at 75% if they go ahead this week.

    Oh dear, it looks like at least 2 nights of little sleep (13th and 14th) where we all wait and refresh.
  • All poised ready to go instore on Wednesday, shelves are full of the items and it's going to be a whip round in 5 minutes to get all the bits.

    Loads of L'oreal stuff, wines, ports and beauty stuff we've got our eye on.

    Just come back from the CMK Boots - they have LOADS of Elle bags (the £40 ones), No 7 £60 sets, and hundreds of Chilli Pepper bags (original price £35). Some £40 GokWan sets and a few bits of other things that I wasn't interested in. Maybe they have all the stock from the other stores in the area!

    Yes, it's hideous. As were a lot of the people there last year. There were groups of people who went in with trolleys and blocked the aisles, so no one else could get down them. And they just piled stuff from the shelves into their trolleys. They didn't even seem to be looking for specific items. They just bought anything and everything.

    I'd actually only gone in for a sandwich, but it was like the place was being looted.

    please tell us where this was Sarah coz I would not want to go there

    I think I'll chance it on Wednesday early anyway :)

    No new toiletries challenge - use up the stash first!

    I must have been one of the luckier ones too-I went into my local Boots on Boxing Day and found it was fairly quiet. I only wanted some Ghost Deep Night but still didn't get squashed to death!
    As I was walking out there still wasn't many around.x
