    I've just seen this very same photo on UK Extreme Couponing fb page.....



    Wish I'd known this, there's a big wilkos opposite the boots I went to this morning lol! :rotfl:

    Wondered who had been nicking my picture then, but it's just Holly from our local compers club :) She runs the Coupon page

    I've done pretty well this year, I think I've managed to not overspend and get things that will be of use for birthdays and xmas.


    Assuming the online order has gone thru OK (unlike last year) I've managed to get Soap & Glory, which I've never managed before, and a good variety of smaller gift sets. I did mess up though and ordered the FC big set which was still only 50% off, but it's still a decent saving so I'm not too devastated ;) I was at my local store for opening (only person there - which is pretty usual) and got the big Ted Baker box, and then went over to the next town which has a much bigger store. Well........ it was heaving! Word has obviously got out, as it was much quieter last year. All pretty good natured though but it was a struggle to get down the aisles. I got the nivea cellular face cream pack, which was my main reason for going, along with some small champneys sets and then some lip balms and bath bombs for stocking fillers. The lady in front of me at the tills didn't have an advantage card so offered her points to me :D I very gratefully accepted (and I had a double points coupon too).

    Sorry to burst the bubble, but the sale has started today 14/01/15, just been into my local branch and got some bits for gifts during the year.

    Not sure who or how you're bursting anyone's bubble as the last load of pages are all about what people have got in the sale that we are all aware started this morning. I checked out about 3 minutes after go live and got everything i wanted as it was all still in my basket, I also added a couple of soap and glory sets as these weren't on the website before midnight.

    Ahh well, that's another year done!

    Wasn't able to go this morning to my Lakeside Branch contemplating going later - anyone know whether any of the stores had much left or is it not worth bothering with?

    I was at Lakeside about 9.30 and it was heaving, people had trolley fulls overflowing, it amazes me what they do with it all. I got a few mens gift sets and when I was leaving shelves were practically empty so I wouldnt make a special trip as it looked like the vultures had been at it.

    Awesome, thanks for that, as that is where I will be heading at 4.30 after work. May also pop into the big Cowley store as well!

    I forgot to use my threshold vouchers when I was at the Bristol store this morning - do you think they will add them on if I go to my local store later?

    Same happened to me and I asked and they said there isn't anything they can do. Let me know if you manage to get it done :)

    Northampton Sixfields was a little busy at half eight. Got some Soap and Glory, men's Ted Baker set, some cute bird candles and a Ted Barker edt set.

    The little one in St James though...not as much stock but higher quality. Got some No 7 items and Nivea men's set.

    My highlight has been balmi lip balms at £1.50, normally £4.99 each. Got one for me and 4 for presents. So chuffed.
