    Oh no, this is terrible!! I have just phoned round approx 10 stores and they all said defo cancelled tomorrow. One very very nice lady said it is next wednesday she had been told this this morning by head office and she was the manager.

    This is terrible news I havn't been able to sleep for three nights with all th excitement, another week to wait I'll be like a zombie.

    :rotfl: Me too but it will give me a extra week to save up and have more to spend :D

    oh no!!! how could they do this!! my local Boots is rmmed full of gifts, but they only had 2 left of the one I wanted. Think I am going to cry! Will be down there at opening tomorrow anyway and will have to get it at 50% off or I wont get it at all.
    Just an idea but...why don't you buy it at 50% and keep it unopened with receipt then when its 75% off go in and buy it again if there are any left and you can take back the 50% one. If none left then you still have the one at 50%.

    Oh no I am devastated! I have an exam next wednesday at 945am! And I always get to uni for 8am ish to ensure I encounter no traffic problems, so no chance of getting to a store :'( Suppose I could go after the exam at 1245 but I bet there wont be much of what I wanted left then :'(

    Heres to hoping that the website does go to sale tonight, I really want to gok sets!

    Hi, does anyone know what stock is like in bristol please?

    thanks

    Not quite Bristol, but the new Bath Boots has loads when I went in last week. Tons of Gok Wan (I'm hoping to get a vanity case set!), few bits of Sanctuary, no s&g at all, tons of Boots 'Fresh' branded stuff, fair bit of wrapping paper and cards and plenty of Lee Stafford and Umberto Gianni. Think there was a fair bit of No7 too! There's other stuff too but I can't remember what. I may go down later so will post later in more detail if you like! hth!

    Can confirm with 'Angelbob' that the sale has been put back until Weds 20th Jan confirmed by 2 x Boots stores in my local area of Newport, South Wales!
    I'm gutted, am booked on training for that day so no-way I can get out of that! Will have to fingers xd for on-line!

  • :( i have just been into my local Boots, spoke to 2 SAs and they both said that its now next week :(

    I asked why that was and they said its because it has been selling very well at 50%. I said is there any chance they have done this as a bit of a red herring and SA2 said she hoped not because they have not arranged any store preparations at all!

    Boo hiss!!!! Am not a happy bunny as had booked days leave especially :( :mad:
    All hail to the sale!!!!!! :beer:

    new beginnings...... new successes..
