    No - they used to be back in the day but haven't been the last few years.

    Don't know how I've missed this. What is the story of the Angel perfume. Just LOVE it and could do with a new bottle. Thanks.

    The EDP Refillable bottles of Alien & Angel WERE the Offer of the Week but we sold out really fast of the Alien. But we DO still have quite a few Angel left. And it is still available to order on Boots.com when I checked last night. If you want it, get on there and order it ASAP as the offer ends this evening.

    It's £35 for a 35ml EDP refillable. I bought myself one, as well as a couple of Alien last Friday when the offer first started.

    They're included in the 'Buy 3 Premium Brand get £10 of Advantage Points' too so if there's any other premium brand items you are after now would be the time to get them! :)

    Im glad somebody else remembers this! I only remember because I got my sister the Elle Mcpherson gift which was OOTW probably going back about 6 or 7 years ago now and I got it with 2 other items all on 3 for 2




    With regards to the S&G set tomorrow, I hope all who want it get it. I am opting out again this year because I don't think its as good as what it used to be and I would only use 3 items in there, if I got these 3 items it equates to about £15 so for me not value for money to buy the set. I am of course still waiting for the big No7 set due next week so I believe, then after this I have my eye on a number of items for the sale.


    If I don't post in here again thanks to all who posted in here, you are a massive help to me for my planning. Merry Xmas! :xmassign:

    I'm just on my lunch at the moment and we've had a huge delivery of the Soap & Glory 'Special Edition Yule Monty' Star Gifts, they are really nice sets with well over £70 of stuff in. The bag is lovely and a very good size.

    We have received roughly 150 of them, and we're getting a very large amount of people coming in asking for them already. We've put them out on display as the Ted Baker Vanity Case sold out days ago, so we keep getting people bringing them to the till and I have to keep telling them it's not till tomorrow that they go down to £27... Everyone is VERY eager to get them. A lot have said they will be coming back first thing in the morning.

    I don't really like Soap & Glory too much but I really like the case and I think I will use it to store my extensive make up collection in.
    It's my day off tomorrow but I will be waiting outside my store at the crack of dawn to get one!

    Get ready to get down to your local store ASAP in the morning ladies!
