To be honest I think its only fair that staff get first dibs, I have worked in retail before - its lots of hard work for very little money.

I don't begrudge them but they do get 22% staff discount year round too so to be fair it's not a thankless job. I have moonlighted in retail so I am aware of what it is like being a customer facing worker but you have to love that sort of work to do it, if not there are thousands of people who would bite their hands off for their job.

Like I say, I don't begrudge perks of the job if that helps staff morale and all, but on the otherhand loyal customers who spend hundreds and even thousands each year should see perks too.

Swings and roundabouts perhaps but I see it from both sides.

I have a Boots very nearby and with a young baby I'm in there a couple of times a week so I prob spend a fair bit of cash in there - I'm planning to go after the school run tomorrow although I brought most of the bits I liked in the 50% off sale I will go and see if I can pick up a sanctuary set as they had plenty left the other day.
Having read the thread though I have to confess I'm a bit scared with talk of peeps taking their own bags to fill and taking holiday so they can go to the sale perhaps I should equip DD with a suit of armour :eek:

I am taking my buggy with DS... If its too chaotic then I will just leave, am not THAT desperate for stuff that I will risk my ds's safety lol.. am really thinking it can't be that bad where I live (wycombe) nothing much mentioned on here about that store and to be honest there wasnt masses left when I popped in on sunday... I am just after a couple of sanctuary sets and any nice christmas/kiddies stuff thats left..good luck!!

Yes I'm the same - Nothing much mentioned about my nearest store either so hoping we won't get flattened in the rush
