    Usual tat left in Southampton Above bar today- Strictly, Fearne by the bucketload, some Elle sets, some empty make up bag stuff, slabs of chocolate, little photo frames, front cover sets, S&TC make up sets. No GOK, S&G, No7, but there hasn't been throughout the sale. There didn't appear to be any "new" stock or repleneshing from yesterday- or that week for that matter.

    Has anyone been in West Quay retail park or Eastleigh? I want a Gok set. Anyone spotted any Gok sets within an hour or so of Southampton?


    hi, i was at the west quay retail boots at 8.30 this morning and managed to get a gok set, they had about another 20-30 on the shelf if that helps.

    they also had quite a few fearne boxes and strictly boxes .

    hope you manage to get one :)

    Been to the shop in CMK tonight and the shelves for the 75% sale are stripped bare, except for Fern and the strictly stuff, and a very small amount of toddler / baby stuff.

  • Think I will have to try a store. Managed to add something to basket and than crashed again. What a rubish website.
    If something is out of stock why do they bother listing it.

    Gok sets still available as of a minute ago...free delivery to local store, so could save some foot slogging!

    Hi,
    haven't had chance to read thro all the recent posts, (is this the longest boots thread in history?)

    just got in from work and wanted to report my own experience today-ok so i was going to resist the sale but i just couldn't help myself, i need help!
    I set my alarm every hr last night and didn't get anywhere, headed off to shefd meadowhall which is about 1/2 hr drive from me, thought i would combine with claires as my sister and i have already cleared out our local claires

    anyway IT WAS LIKE A CATTLE MARKET!!!!!!!! The 2 isles were so full that you couldnot physically move-I was "stuck" in each isle physically neither being able to reach the stock on either side because people were in the way and neither moving forwards or backwards. One woman was THROWING items to her OH OVER the isle -nice! People were being really mean and nasty and the BO from one lady was uhhh! It was so stressful.

    NEVER NEVER NEVER AGAIN!!!!
    Anyway small consolation gots some lovely bits from claires so wasn't total waste of time.

    THEN on my way back popped into my local at Doncaster before I went into work. The shelves were packed and our folk must be so naive I heard so many people just strolling around browsing!! Not like me hard core get as much as you can in your basket whether you need it or not!!

    I have overbought loads of items, pleased but I really only wanted the fragrance minatures and got none from anywhere, just the old charlie blue and So gift packs, got loads of No7 minipacks and strictly lip gloss packs, think i bought a few too many if anyone wants some!!!

    Did I read someone say that the Gok sets were OOS online because I have just managed to purchse 2 online?
    GRATITUDE WHEN GIVEN, PATIENCE WHEN DENIED

    Has anybody been in the cwmbran, newport or cardiff boots? Do they have much stock? thanks

    I was in the Cardiff Llanishen store at 8.05 this morning on my way to work and as I approached the 75% off section there were 3 women who had cleared the lot, they had 2 trolleys each! The only things left were the hat boxes and some small items. Bit greedy of them I thought.
  • I avoided glasgow fort today and managed to get all I want in Coatbridge store, it was quite and eay to get the bits and pieces, few of us there so not much left but sometimes small is best lol :):)

    SIL works in cwmbran and told me not to bother, as they had hardly anything. Went to Newport this morning and got loads, but there was not a great deal left of the 'good' stuff. No FCUK by teh time I got the, sanctuary all gone, can't remember seeing Gok. Loads of strictly and Fern, wrapping paper, boots extracts, boobypin adn younger ranges.

    Not gone to Cardiff sorry.

    Also been told that Spytty was rubbish too.

    HTH
  • Anyone been to either of these stores? Wondering if there is anything left. Thank you.
