  • When does the further reduction normally take place? Just thinking that there's not much left now so surely there's going to be nothing to further reduce or do they get more stock?
    I survived a brain injury :j but it means my posts may be a bit backwards or mixed up, would prefer to be related to :beer: but fraid not.

    Strangely some Christmas stock is no longer listed on the web site whilst others just say sold out. I wonder if the sold out stuff might come back into stock, whereas those removed are gone for good.
    If you find you are drinking too much give this number a call. 0845 769 7555

    kelly41982, third week would be 21st not 14th if sweetcheeks33 is correct.

    You never know with boots. My teenage sons have received FCUK sets for the last few years originally they came with boxers and socks in one set then they changed to 2 separate sets, it's become a bit of a joke now and they expect them, always buy in 70% sale. Just after xmas they were both showing as out of stock and stated no more would be available however days later they were back - I don't think even boots know what is in their own warehouses.

    There's a post on the last page where someone has put up the date the 70/75% off sale each year and the day Christmas day fell on the month before.

    I made a grid to check the dates from this info.

    It has not always fallen on the 3rd Wednesday after Christmas, some years it has been the 4th. It has not always fallen the 3rd Wednesday in January, sometimes it has been the 2nd.

    The best indication of a pattern, is last time December 25th fell on a Thursday, as it did for Christmas 2014, then the sale started on Wednesday 14th January. Currently that's the closest to a guess we have.

    Stupid question ;) (I've been doing the Boots sale for years - I should know) do the toys also drop to 70% off? I don't normally get toys in the sale but I may be tempted if it drops further.
