    I went into my local Boots this morning and the shelves are bursting with everthing that has normally gone by boxing day even some S&G sets in tins, all reduced to 50% off and still no one was buying anything, they had dozens of FCUK bag all round the store at 75% off, I commented on it to a SA who was stocking other shelves and she told me that they had ordered in extra for the sale but were one of the only stores locally that had anything left :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: well all I can say is if they don't have a 75% off sale they are going to be stuck with a whole lot of xmas stock

    I think she is fibbing! My local store still has a lot of stock left which is usually gone by Boxing Day and the other nearest (Metro Centre) also has too much stock - it's the largest shopping centre in the UK. When I went last week I even heard the SA say 'I don't know where we are going to put all this stock, there is no space for new stock'.

    I think that maybe they have shipped everthing out to the stores that they would have sold online but even that doesnt make sense as there was definitely no S&G left online and my local had dozens of different sets, not the vanity case unfortunately, maybe everyone is holding out for the 75% off sale :)

    I thought they would have been able to sell most of the stock online quicker than in store as most things did go out of stock very quickly when the sale went live online.

    Maybe everyone is skint after Christmas or they all got what they wanted :) or maybe they are all waiting for the 75% off sale since some of the sale items in store are still not worth paying haf price for.

    The best womens fragrance gift sets sold out before christmas but I noticed there was a lot of D&G The One and Boss Bottled gift sets for men in both of my local stores, I thought they would have sold straight out of the D&G gift sets since it was priced at £27 - it's around £42 for the 50ml fragrance alone.

    I'm surprised they sell off the gift sets as they get them back in again for Valentines Day and Mother's Day so could put them away and sell them at full price.

    I've been in Boots around 10 times since Boxing Day and there is never any queues or many people buying anything.

    Can't find the price of the Polish but the other 3 products with 1/3 off are still worth £10.45 so even if you dislike the bag but like the products there's still a saving.
