Boots Flight socks - glitch - £2.01 for 3 packets

  • Hi

    I bought 3 packets of these socks today at a large Boots store in Thanet and they scanned at £2.01 - unfortunately I was served by the Manager who was helping out on the tills due to the large queque in the shop. He could not believe his eyes when the price came up but he let me have them - but I bet he was straight onto head office to tell them all about it as he didn't look too happy!

    So for all those in Thanet, it might best to try the smaller shops as they might not have cottoned on!

    Worked fine today in St Albans. I bought three pairs, and a £7.99 mascara. Total came to £10, then when SA put my Advantage card in the reader, price dropped to £9. I think this was due to my membership of Health CLub?

    I bought a mixture of packs, some with 2 pairs in and some with just one pair.

    Anyway, I tried not to look too delighted, paid and scarpered pretty quickly!

    Jilly Jacks, I think you may have been looking at the wrong products. There was Scholl flight socks, on 3 4 2, but this glitch is on the Boots flight socks, in a 3 for £15 offer.

    Worked for me today too in a small high street boots.

    Only 30 denier natural in 6-8 size, but think I will go back to a larger boots and exchange 1 pack for husband sized feet.

    Thanks OP.
