  • Oh, everyone's gone to bed, thanks to all for confirming for weds, i fell asleep earlier cos iv'e lost so much waiting for the sale. I now have a cunning plan that shall be exercised with military precision.

    1.Ensure it's not a trick and ring my local boots (using a different accent cos they are fed up of me ringing) to confirm it will be a go! go! go! on weds.

    2.Tip off my best friend and arrange a meet at boots on weds for 8.30 sharp and borrow without asking my DS round the waist thingy will loads of pockets (army issue)

    3. DD and me will then descend on boots like a plague of locusts dressed in our comfy lady chav gear (footwear very important for quick movement) She will will attack the mens products at the rear while i overcome the ladies products from the front, backpacks will be worn (so as not to hinder hand movements when selecting items quickly) Hand signals will follow to indicate moving to the foodstuffs(chocolate really). Focus and discipline are paramount, we shall not engage in polite smalltalk with other shoppers.

    3, Any Lily OBrien choccies may be eaten immediately after purchase and closure of the operation (to bring energy levels back up)

    HOPEFULLY THAT WILL THEN BRING AN END TO MY PSYCOSIS UNTIL JAN 2012 !!!!

  • OH NO! I am gutted :( usually get all my birthday shopping done in the boots sale but think I am going to miss out this year.

    Dropping the kids off at nursery at 8.30 (store opening time) and I have the removal men coming at 9am :(

    Gutted, guess I will be one of the ones that turns up at lunchtime cussing that all the good stuff is gone.

    The toys that I tried to buy in the 50% sale were still going through at full price, which is odd, usually they move all the ones that aren't included, but this year dispite the 50% of everything signs being right above, none of the character toys were reduced. I know the boots own brand toys were included last year, plus all the ITNG stuff but this year looks like they are cutting back on what they reduce.

    Right off to find a box of tissues, think I am going to cry :( Good luck with the pushing, shoving and planning tomorrow everyone!

    Cant believe how quick another year has gone. I remember waiting outside festival park to open and a lady kindly lending me a pound coin for a trolley. Got my trolley coin this year ;)
