There was quite a queue at John Lewis (Trafford Centre) this morning before they opened - and most if not all were there for the origins freebie!
Debenhams (at the other end of the TC) were very quiet though (or they were by the time I got there.0 -
John Lewis (Newcastle branch) had quite a few people waiting before the shop opened at 9. Went along to the Debenhams branch as well to pick one up for my mam as she wasn't well and couldn't get there and the Origins counter at Debenhams was very quiet in comparison. I'm still glad I went in early though as it was a fab freebie. All of the Origins stuff I've used in the past has been great so I'm looking forward to trying out the moisturiser :beer:2022 wins include.... £1,000 cheque £150 ASDA gift card £250 Impericon gift voucher £100 cheque £100 of plant bulbs £100 Bower Collective voucher0

No luck at Monument (London) HoF - there was no-one on the Origins counter, and staff at the other counters knew nothing about it. I might try one of the other branches today, but I'm not hopeful :-(2015 comp wins - £370.25
Recent wins: gym class, baby stuff
Thanks to everyone who posts freebies and comps! :j0 -
News for fans of Westfield Stratford - the Boots had no stock this morning, a friend went early and apparently was something like 20th in the queue, the staff member was over 1/2 hr late so they gave out cloakroom tickets rather than making people wait. When the counter assistant eventually arrived, she apparently was very difficult and begrudgingly gave out a few of the sample sized pots instead.
John Lewis was a total contrast - they had loads of stock and I'm told the counter assistant was lovely.
I didn't bother to go, as I've finally got my skincare regimen cracked after years, but I HTH the East End crew.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

My Boots and Debenhams did have them (Oxford), but apparently people were queueing up outside Boots at 8am so they were cleared out within the hour, Debs had the antioxidant one left when I went in at 10am.0

CHester Boots sold out by 9.15am. Don't beleive it to be honest they can't have had many as there was no queue when I got there at 9.15. THey had sample size (15ml) left and I got one and the free facial. Gutted though!0
