    I just went to my local. Spoke to my fav SA who said it was definitely due for Wed 12th ( they even had all the signs dated yesterday) and then on Tuesday last thing they received an e-mail cancelling it. Apparently Mr B has made so much profit he can afford to leave stock at 50% and it may not be reduced further. When said I heard it may be tommorow as it will be 3 weeks since the beginning of the sale online she just smiled. Anyway as I am away from Sunday night she said if I wanted to leave her my list and gift card she would buy for me. I also spotted the Botanics Essentials set which are lovely and would be a steal at £3.00.
    I have decided that maybe Mr B needs an e-mail telling him how disappointed we all are that after a year of buying stuff we dont really need with all those vouchers he should reward us with the 75% sale. So I will let you know if I get a reply and cross fingers for tommorow.

  • Ive herd the same, they have made so much profit they can leave it out for a extra week, Im wondering if to go in there today and get the bits i really want and then if the 75% does come just buy that too ;)

    I'm sure the 75% sale will happen as they will never sell everything at 50%. Many shops still have plenty of stock. I think this is a ploy to sell a bit more at 50%! Already people are paniking and talking about buying stuff at 50% that they were waiting to get at 75%. Just what Boots are hoping for I'm sure!
    There's a skinny woman inside me screaming to be let out. A cookie soon shuts her up!!! :rotfl:

  • when i mentioned to sa there was word that 75% isnt going to happen, she was a bit baffled and said if they dont then they wont shift the remaining stock. Apparantly it needs to go because they need the room for new spring/summer stock. I think maybe tomorrow. Watch this space........ ???
