Guessing it's both.

I had intended to go into my local branch in Maidstone after my morning dance class yesterday (no way would I have had time before class), but just before leaving the house I found myself thinking "what if they don't have what I was after?" so I hurriedly checked the website and placed an order for 3 items and paid with points.

It's a good job I did! When I got to the branch at around 1pm, to see if there was anything else I fancied, there was very little left, and none of the items I had wanted. Last week when I went in there, there were still loads of shelves full of stuff, including S&G, Gok (not that I wanted Gok) and small makeup kits. Yesterday I saw none of those, and a member of staff was busy moving everything onto just one shelf unit - that's how little was left. There were hardly any customers in that area, either, so I guess they'd all rushed in at the start of the day and grabbed the lot.

I couldn't get to a store this year so did the whole thing online.
Had the same problem as most in the morning and spent 2 hours adding stuff, having my shopping cart wiped and the site crashing but ended up with 4 different sanctuary sets and a ted baker big set.
I went on again last night and about half the stuff appeared back in stock for about 20 minutes so I managed to order about another 16 items including some of the big sets so was really chuffed that I went back on to have a look x

I managed to get some bits and bobs including the spa set and the fearne cotton hat box. Is there a sell by on these sort of things as it might be some time before I can give them as presents?

Nope, as with most things, they won't go off unless you open them and leave them Should be okay as long as you don't open them

I had a great time at Bournemouth Castlepoint yesterday,so glad I got there when I did (20 mins before opening) as I was 5th in the queue, it was huge by opening.
My request for an American style scream as the doors opened didn't go down too well lol but we did a little trot to the aisles.
I got everything I wanted bar the smallish No.7 set that some bloke pounced on before I could get it. Never mind, I'm very happy with my haul:

2 big S&G sets - one for me and one for mum for Mother's Day
Botanics Pamper kit
Starbucks mug
TB mini cube set
Beach hut shower set
Betty and Walter hand wash/lotion set
Hello Kitty Liberty shower and shine set
Pineapple perfume set
Sanctuary Spa Favourites set
Jim Jamms pyjamas

I spent £59 but £30 of that was S&G. Got a few bits for pressies but tbh, most of it is for meeeeeeee!

I was pleased that Boots introduced their Bulk Buying policy, I'm not sure everyone stuck to it but I didn't see anyone that took the mick like I have seen in previous years...guess if there had been toys it might have been a different story!

Happy to report that my dad managed to get me not just 1 but 2 of the large soap and glory sets!

Hi

Just wanted to add that in addition to the 75% off sale I also bagged some sanctuary goodies yesterday at 75% off which were just on the normal sanctuary display (I saw these in 2 local store so hopefully its all over and worth sharing).

I got these items:

http://www.boots.com/en/Sanctuary-Spa-Professional-Trim-Tone-Body-Wrap-475g_641294/

Might be worth looking for if you're in there anyway
