    Hope I get this right as it's my first post.

    This week have seen 3 dates posted over the internet for the Boots 75% off sale - 12th, 13th, 14th Jan. This seems a bit early but instore sale usually starts shortly after the online one. Checked Boots online today, they're still showing items at 50% off however if you type 'sale' in their search box there's a message referring to phenomenal demand for their 75% off stock which has sold out online. Then goes on to tell you that the sale is continuing in store. So I'm expecting the instore prices to drop within the next few days.

    Hope that all makes sense.


    Just to let you know this was from the 75% sale that happened last year, as if you click on any of the links they show no items!

    Can I please ask where you've seen these sale dates posted too?

    People are mostly just going by previous years' dates, with the odd bit of hearsay thrown in! :)

  • The Boots 75% sale traditionally started 3 weeks after the 50% sale on 14th January but last it started later. Years ago virtually nothing seemed to sell in the 50% sale either online or in any of the 3 stores local to me. For the past few years more and more people seem happy to buy at 50% off so I wouldn't be surprised if Mr Boots doesn't hold off on reducing to 75% for a while. My local stores all have virtually nothing left already and most items I've had my eye on have already sold out online. I'm hoping I'm wrong though as January wont be the same without the Boots 75% sale.

    I tend to buy things that I really want in the 50% off sale, then grab what I can in the 75% off sale. :o

    Hi which boots was this? Is it a big store? Checked in my local yesterday and they only had the odd toy left on the shelves and they were only 50% off. Really hoping to find some 75% off toys somewhere because at that price its worth buying and putting away for DD's birthday in July lol

    This was Bolton store on the retail park it isn't a huge store but has a bit of everything,it looked to me as if it was stuff that had just been delivered as there were some other toys already out but not alot and these were quite a lot of the same things
