How will we know for sure?
A lot of us have all had this confimred at our local stores so i think you can say for definate.
It is nothing to do with the snow as i first thought they have postponed because it is selling at 50% off so from their point of view it is not necessary to reduce down to 75% yet. More profit for them.Member of Thrifty Gifty ~ Making money for Christmas 2010:£2 Savers club member no 40 ~ £54Amazon Vouchers BingoPort ~ £10Dooyoo Challenge Jan ~ £24.07 / £20.00 Yippee over target :j0 -
:-( shame daughter & I were going at 8.30 tomorrow to snag some bargains for next xmas
Our local Boots has loads of stuff including S&G"Very funny, Scotty. Now beam down my clothes." :cool:
All truth goes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Then, it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident.0 -

mmm, I was just checking what I have in faves, wishlists and old orders....
and I came across the last GWP - £6.50 ......
is that what it's actually worth (thought it was about £22) or is it reduced? I wonder if it's actually worth buying? doesn't seem to need any other purchase..0 -

Depends, might make a nice gift for someone, I got one for myself when they were GWP and didn't end up using some of it, the nail varnish was a funny sparkly pink colour which I wore once and then reminded myself that I'm not 16 anymore lol*wonders when they will make dressing gowns acceptable day wear?*No new toiletries challenge - use up the stash first!NSD Jan 2/150 -
The one thing I am absolutely certain about is ...................... nothing is ever 100% definite as far as Boots is concerned!
When the Elle Bags were reduced to £20, and 3 for 2, and then they changed their minds at the last minute, and increased them to £26, I still managed to get 3 for £40 at my local store.
By the same token, I suppose it's possible that some stores may still go ahead with the sale tomorrow, and then realise they shouldn't have done so.
I bet there'll be loads of us just casually passing 5 minutes before opening time, looking in a nonchalant manner at other peeps, also looking in a nonchalant manner!!!!

They are selling them instore at this price as well. My local had a huge stand of them, must be trying to get rid of them.0 -
Is anyone going to go along early anyway on the off chance?*wonders when they will make dressing gowns acceptable day wear?*No new toiletries challenge - use up the stash first!NSD Jan 2/150

Oh how I wish it was tomorrow. Just went to the boots I am going to be hitting at 8am on sale morning so see what they have as I havent been to this branch of boots since summer last year and altho they didnt have a large amount of stuff compared ot my main boots the stuff they did have was things I hadnt seen at the other branch. The sales assistant also said it was shifting much so Im sure they would have been there in the morning.
They had about 6 of the No.7 ultimate collection boxes, which I have only eve seen on the website, and I have now decided I would quite like one for my mum! The only downside is many have been opened so would have had to check the item properly. The box is sooo cute!
They had a hsm umberella which would be fab for a friend, £16 original price is pretty hefty though, even £4 is expensive for a brolly hahaha
And they had a really cute accessorise vanity case with contents for £15 original which would have been great to put away!
Then they had some other smaller sets I hadnt seen in the other branch.
Oh well, just hope they dont sell too much by next week, or even better that they get more in! Its on a retail park so no passing trade so maybe that will go in my favour.
But the plus side is I have realised my exam is thursday not wednesday so Imon for the boots sales scramble again! hehe0 -
