Thanks to everyone on this thread for the heads up it was today, got up nice and early to get the bus into town. York branches all very civilised, no pushing or shoving, loads of people with two or three basket fulls but I was very happy with the items I got. Even managed to get to the next branch a few streets away just as that was opening and get first dibs there too. Happy days :j Thanks all xx0

Bristol Broadmead had loads in this morning when I got there at 8.20am. I spent £38 then decided to go back at 11am and spent another £16
Loads of big Sanctuary sets, strictly sets, Hello Kitty etc. Very few No7, only the smaller sets with lip gloss & lippy or nail polish & lippy. Lots of Wallace & Grommit stuff.
No Lindt Santas.
I was pleased with my haul, I got 2 St Tropez sets, front cover rainbow eyeshadow set, 17 metallics nail polish set, jerk chicken set, Pasta set (parmesan grater, ravioli cutter etc) 2 perfume sets (I get one of these every year) 2 S&G foodie tins, the FCUK overnight bag and the strictly eyelash set.
No mens stuff unfortunately - there were a few bits at 8.30am but nothing when I went back at 11am.
Colleagues have just driven to Cribbs thinking they might have more luck there!

Hi to all those I spotted at 9am in the Bath store with their Ikea bags
I was the one getting in the way with the baby/pram. Really pleased with some of the stuff I got with a gift card my grandma gave me for Christmas. Not tonnes left in store, but there was a stand of sanctuary gift boxes at the top of the stairs. Not really any children's stuff/toys that I could see.
Also swapped my mascara at the Clinique counter while I was there, and got some free make up sponges with the No7 vouchers. All in all a good morning0 -
I had loads of stuff too - spent £89. All of my stuff was for personal use though as opposed to those buying multiples of many sets so clearly selling on. Multiples of one set could be party bags etc but multiples of many sets must be for business use. Everyone is entitled to do as they please, it justs feels a little unfair (stinks) when you see it in practice. v. surprised at the MK story - can't believe Boots support wholesaling their stock whilst it is still on the shelves.0

couldnt get there earlier as had to take hubby to hospital after school run,but went to Leamington Spa Shires Retail park at 11.50 - there's about 15 of the S&G £16 tins, plus Project D, Bobbypin, Lipsy, Hello Kitty, and Strictly - no No7, Sanctuary or Gok left, fair bit still there, about 3/4 of one aisle. People browsing but no shoving or grabbing
got the White Cranberry gift set for £3, and a Bobbypin and Chilli Pepper make up set for £2 each0 -
Just back from Harpenden. There are a few things left, but then again it isn't the biggest store so there wasn't half as much stuff to start with.
Spent about £20 and have got the S&G hand cream out already. It love that stuff!
Now...do i keep it myself or keep as presents......Redundancy isn't fun - comping is!

Windsor. Well, that was fun! No parking fine this time. Spent £78 on sanctuary, no 7, dove, botanics, toys and other presents. People were bulk buying in packs, but they kept to the corners and it wasn't too bad. Lots of stock left at half nine, halved by eleven. Staff stressed but in a good mood.
Getting back to the car was a chore though. Might check out camberley or the tiny Bracknell store later...:wall:0 -
