  • Hi,
    Just wondered if anyone had bought any Sanctuary gifts in the sale and opened them. In particular the Weekend Wash Bag. I want to save 2 for presents but don't know if they may have dated vouchers in them. Thanks in advance.

    What does being Asian have to do with it? Surely anyone from any race can be greedy??

    Can one of the moderators please remove the post by millerose?

    Thank you.

    Don't be ridiculous. She's describing what happened. Nothing racist about saying an Asian person did something, just like saying a fat person barged past, or an American woman did the same.

    Over sensitive!

    Hi - beauty products have a kind of 'best within date' - search the back label - usually says 6M, 12M , 18M, 24M etc inside a little pot with the lid open picture (hope that makes sense)
    hope this helps

    QUIIIIICK!!! .... I just got 2 of the Sanctuary £5 sets online ... http://www.boots.com/en/Sanctuary-Spa-Ultimate-Body-Revival_1273683/

    They actually added to basket & checked out so we'll see ;-)

    Charged me delivery though but my £10 order yesterday was free delivery for some reason???

    from looking at the link they've been on ebay since december so i'm guessing they either bought on 3 for 2 or 50% off so not making loads of profit.

    I bought 4 in Dec (when it was OOTW) and used a £15 off wys £100 code, so they were only £23.25 each. They're probably still making a profit. Mental, though.

    They do if you are buying lots of the same thing in Sainsbury during an offer as they have a limit on amounts - but the manager can let you bypass the limit if you have proof (photos) that you are buying for yourself / family so it should be easy enough to do so in boots also.

    Some ways they are customer focused and in others not so - shame as that little bit of negative stays with you longer.


    I'm all for limits on offers, but if a store manager asked to see photos of the people I was buying for, I'd laugh loudly in their face!!!

    Do the £5 Sanctuary sets I posted above come with any vouchers??...

    I'd be CHUFFED if they did as only buying the cheaper sets / bits & pieces so presume the vouchers are only in the large 11 quid ones? :p

    I placed two orders online yesterday, one at 03:40 the other at 06:00, have received an email saying the 06:00 order has been dispatched, but the 03:40 is still processing.

    The strange thing is, I duplicated the Betty and Walter sumptuous selection of bubbly bits, this has been cancelled in the first order as it was now out of stock, but has been dispatched in the later one.

    I think it might be worth looking on the Boots website from time to time if you have the patience to click on the buy button & pretty much everything be OOS but a couple of things might surprise you as it looks like they are adding a bit more stock intermittently

    Hopefully those who didn't manage to get anything instore or online might be able to get something :)

    If you try after midnight and manage to get anything you won't be able to let us know coz MSE will be down for maintenance! lol :p:p

    Good luck though , am done now for this year , but IF anyone finds something nice back in stock and manages to put an order in then please let others know if possible as some have missed out so far & would be nice for them to get some bits too ( while in the warm as well! ) x

    ( Keep trying coxy11 I hope you manage to get something nice :-))
