    The thread on HDUK was posted by someone who works for boots. Tomorrow is the 3rd Wednesday in January, which is when everyone was anticipating it to start.

    I think we have lost count of how many times "someone" who works for boots has posted this.

    It's become a bit of pantomine really....is the sale on at Boots or not....

    "oh yes it yes....".

    "ooops sorry - oh no its not!".

    We can only wait and see but there is hardly any stock where I live and I won't be stopping up, just in case "someone" who works for Boots is having a laugh again. :rotfl:
  • It will only be worth it in store, if they have more stock to bring out. If they only have what is sitting there now, there's nothing much that would interest me. Worth a look though...

    Glad I went in yesterday now :) Tat or not at 75% off it will fly off the shelves and wanted a gift for someone, wasn't going to get 50% off anywhere else!
  • Sorry, what I meant is Boots usually officially confirm it the day before, not a sales advisor.

  • well i was in my local boots this morning and gift sets were still half price although they hardly had anything of excitement, not sure what my city branch has in and the online madness is too much for me!

  • Because you wouldn't buy something today that you know might be half the price tomorrow.

    I was so tired of waiting for this sale, that I have now spent my money elsewhere, so I don't think I will bother. Only rubbish left in our local anyway. I don't really want Christmas stuff in mid-January!!!
  • Yeah I think that I've got enough Christmas studd already :-)

    I was in boots today and overheard the sales assistant saying how busy it was going to be and how she was glad she wasn't in ...so I think its tomorrow also as they are said to usually start on a wed. Loads in our boots still but it was very quiet so I doubt stuff is shifting at the mo.
