The reason last year was so quiet was the majority of the city was at a stand still as we had tonnes of snow and the city got gridlocked the day or two before and kids were off school lol I never made it last year but friends did and they said they had never seen it so quiet . Tbh I don't think norwich ever gets as manual as some places report but then I can never get there for 8 but by 9.30 ish when school run done its usually quite civilised and polite

Saw a few extracts bits at both chapelfield had the big purple set think it was two tubs and a tube and catle mall had those as well and some triple sets of moisturisers that's about all I remember

I totally agree....i definately never saw anyone scrambling to get stuff or filling trolleys. Everyone was civilised in Chapelfield but I have a feeling more people will be aware of it this year I forget about snow tbh good point LOL (it done me a favour so i can't complain!)

10. Boots stores are full of MSE'ers casing the joint, sizing up whats left and deciding on their route round the isles/plan of attack for the morning.

I so LOVE this description, especially the phrase 'casing the joint' like we're all spies or master criminals who will be entering the store via zip-wire come the morning of the sale :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I've just checked the online and can't see any Clinique listed in the gifts sale so going to be hit and miss if they add anymore items now

Thank you for replying but i think i'm missing something, is this sale only for what left on christmas gift sets ?? i thought it is a major sale

Is it just me then but I can't see what all the fuss is about their gift sets aren't that wonderful are they?

I won't be queuing, I will try online and see what's there, if I can be bothered I will drop into a couple of branches near me to see what there is, there's nothing I madly want though so I'm pretty relaxed about it!

That should be the main sale page as it is at the mo gives you an idea of the kind of stuff should be instore too.

I've just called my local boots branch to ask about the sale but the lady who answered was really unhelpful ( nothing new for me ) I asked if the sale will start tomorrow she said may be but it is not today probabely tomorrow i then asked if it is only on gift sets or there are other beauty products she said it will be on items for sale i said ok thank you bye , i would rate them really 0/10 for communication , i think i will keep an eye on the website only no store visit i can imagine how angry they will look tomorrow if the store is busy :-0
