    Has anyone been to the branch in Ipswich or in Festival Park in Stoke-on-Trent? Much left? Thanks.

    Mega frustrating!! 75% Sale starts today and the site is down.
    It's down BECAUSE of the sale. Or are you have a laugh :D

    We were limited to 6 items, l got checked because l had 5 mens body wash and deoderant sets at £2 each. There were tons of it left so l wasn't being over greedy. Three nephews and 2 raffle prizes for a cancer fundraiser sorted. :o

    There weren't any big sets of anything left so can't comment on a potential limit for those.


    Happy moneysaving all.

    Would have liked S&G but I know that would be gone! Just want some gifts to use throughout the year and maybe some stocking fillers for next Xmas :o I will head to Boots in Westfield first and then on to Wyvern - wish me luck on whats left! :rotfl:

    For anyone else looking they had lots and lots and lots of the big Soap & Glory left in Bristol Cribbs this morning. Along with lots and lots of virtually everything else too. :)

    She had listed that on 11th January by the looks of it, so probably paid more than you think.

    I went to the Wyvern Boots at 8.45am quite a bit left although the decent stuff was going fast, also drove to Kingsway Boots although didnt reckon much to their stock to be honest (not as good stock in my opinion) What sort of things you looking for? No S&G sets left that's for sure.

    I thought about going to the Wyvern this morning, just about the time you were leaving ;). Decided against it in the end, went to 2 smaller stores nearer home, got a few bits (2 for me and 4 gifts). I've decided I'm a rubbish Bootser these days - didn't scope out any of the stores I was thinking of visiting today in advance, and I no longer have boxes and bags full of Boots bargain toiletries stashed all over my house and in the boot of the car :rotfl:.

    I was on the lookout for the hair minis gifts, but I think they're getting like hens teeth instore after Christmas (I suppose its because if they're £10 full price, paying £5 half price for 3 or 4 premium brand minis is not bad, so they'll sell at half price pretty well).
  • I managed to get lots today in high wycombe, no S&G tho, and they were limiting people to 6 of each item. That's me sorted for presents til next years 75% off sale !

    P.s for those that weren't sure when it starts, it's ways the third Wednesday in January, has been for the last 5 years. The only uncertainty is at what time they get the website changed over! Enjoy your purchases! X

    Let me know how you got on in the Westfield then i was going to go but then i decided i couldnt be bothered by 9.45am as it would probably be rammed in there and not buggy friendly. Good luck hope there's something left for you.

    Good luck with trying to sell this stuff 1/2 price when Boots themselves couldn't.

    I bet they were the ones who block off aisles etc and are just rude. :mad:

    That's the thing it's all good and well buying all this stuff but then when you get home you are like heck where am i gunna store all this stuff :eek: I did see some http://www.boots.com/en/Umberto-Giannini-Glam-Hair-Drum_1273070/ in the Kingsway Boots although there were not many left, oh and millions of those slippers/slippers boots if ya interested.
