  • :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: well i am due to have my baby on sunday and have been saying the whole time that i will end up missing the sale cos i will probably go over lol, expecting it to be next wednesday, so i am now thinking if its tomorrow i will probably go early, but on the plus side if my waters break in boots tomorrow morning it will clear people out of the way so i will be able to scurry about and fill my baskets before the contractions start lol!!!!!!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Im due in 8 weeks hoping being heavily pregnant people will feel sorry for me so i can get more stuff!! :)

    not too sure if I will be braving it instore tomorrow, but am going to stay awake!:j (and get assignment done too!) Don't think I stayed awake last year, but did go in store and it was mayhem!
    Is it just me or was there tonnes of better stuff last year compared to this year? and pricing was also better. I can't believe I'm saying this but there's nothing much I really want for myself, unless I find any S&G of course!;)
  • If it starts instore tomorrow, will it be online tonight / in the early hours?

    ie - if it's not online tomorrow morning, will that mean it's not on tomorrow in store?

    Sounds like good logic to me. It should be live by the early morning if it's on.

    Oh and the lady who is due any day now, don't forget if your waters break in the middle of Boots you'll probably get some freebies (as well as your 75% off bargains!!)
    :D Skint but happy with my lovely family :D

    Hypnotherapy rocks :j

    Have just spoken to a friend who is a manager in a boots store and she says it is not on tomorrow. She said it is next week.

    I asked a SA today if there would definately be a 75% Sale. She said there will be one but doesn't know when. While telling me she went the brighest shade of Red I've ever seen. Maybe shes just no good at lying??

    I went online today and they've added nearly 100 extra items to the sale, either they want to try and sell them at 50% or they're putting everything on to get rid of it at 75%???

    Thank you Sandrascarlett for the info on Lakeside and ilford!! Ooooh i don't know where to go now! i was banking on Ilford being good like last year... Hmm anyone know about Romford?

    I went to Romford on Boxing Day and they didn't really have much good stuff even then...Frearne Cotton hat boxes, Gok Wan boxes and the Strcityl make up sets (pretty much the same story in every Boots I have been to lol!) but they might have got more stock sent to them from smaller stores because it's quite a big one. x

    My OH works in a Boots store. They have had all the point of sale advertising in, and have been told it will happen, just not when.

    Update to above. OH has just checked on Boots storenet and it is saying 75% sale TBC, and staff are not allowed discount when it does start.
