Boots sale - now 90% off

Hollie84

Got to my store at 7.30 and was at the front, my sister was already there so got us both a trolley as there was only about 7 available. Last year I had 3 big bags, I shop for presents for the whole year. I had a few people moaning behind me that I was taking the trolley down the aisles! biting my tongue lol It was no where near as busy last year but this year was heaving, full of rude and ignorant people who thought they had a god given right to judge and push! I certainly weren't leaving my trolley at the end of an aisle for the vultures to root through and take stuff out! anyway I got everything I wanted, spent £143 and saved well over £300

I'm disgusted too, do you live in blackburn ?? the old asian ladies cleared the shelves by 9:30 they brought tesco large trolleys which is just near boots in the mall , i just found that to be selfish really to take everything of everything i can see them just popping boxes in the trolleys without even reading what they contain , fortunately i managed to grab a box of manicure sanctuary spa and joules and laura ashley thanks god i loved the smell when i tried it now at home but quiet disappointed i didn't have the chance to get the remington wand that was reduced to £9 and it's one of the greatest products i was waiting for to be discounted from nearly £50 , helas the hunters grab them all in their trolleys gonna do a great profit on ebay though , unuasually the staff was helpful and smiling today :T

I picked up the Remington wand and then put it back as I realised I didn't want it. As soon as I put it back, 2 people grabbed for it, and another woman asked what I'd done with it as she obviously saw it was gone from my hand basket. She seemed genuinely annoyed that i'd put it back and she hadn't got it.
I just don't get it!

For all those upset about people selling stuff on ebay. It really is those selling on ebay that are going to be in for a shock! Listing fee, 10% final value fee then a paypal fee and then postage for the item. Are they really making a profit?

Agreed. Postage alone on these bulky items will be ridiculous! I wish someone would explain to me how on earth a profit is made?

No, you don't have the right to insult anybody. Yet, you still have.


'Exploiting people'?! I think you need to re-read previous posts. I don't believe I'm better than anyone else shopping in the Boots sale, and I've never suggested so.


I do, however, believe I'm better than the likes of you.


So don't bother replying to my posts again, as I don't wish to read your ridiculous, poorly written views.


Let's just leave it there, shall we?

If you dont think you are better than anybody in that sale why did you say "I replied that I was a journalist writing a piece on people who'll do anything to save a few quid"

Lets leave it there.

Don't feed the trolls . They hate it when they get ignored.

I did not see any s&g, fcuk or ted baker set left by the time I got there. Shame.

Share your opinion about how ridiculous and greedy some people do look . For me I will be more ashamed of myself than annoyed if I was caught clearing the shelf. Saying that if you told me what you told the lady I would have just laugh and agreed with you (the American streak in me x)

Glad is all over X

That was something else that peed me off too!! Minor I know, but I used to be able to work out the price easily by halving and then halving again, it was a nuisance trying to work out what 70% off was!
In the end I did it by working out that the reduced price would be 30p for each pound of the original price! But it's not easy to do on the hop when you're being rammed by trollies left right and centre!!

Couldn't agree with you more!

Hi been away for a while.Got to store at 8.58 with only a few in front of me. Nice a calm people saying excuse me and passing each other bits. Lots of good stuff left and love the fact that we are set up for presents for ages again. Roll on the BOGTF at Lloyds Chemist!!

Yes I do. You were trying to buy crap from Boots in the middle of the night.

I wasnt up in the middle of the night!

Its a shame that you think Champneys is crap, oh well it left lots for me :rotfl::rotfl:

FYI Please can you now only post if you are keeping on topic as generally posts that go off topic end up getting deleted for clogging up threads.

I shall not be feeding the trolls anymore so your on your own now.
