    Even more exciting now that Boots have kindly sent me a load of bonus points vouchers and even a 10% off voucher. I can't remember ever having such generous extras to combine with 70% off :D

    Are we definitely going to be able to use the bonus points vouchers with sale items, Daveswife?

    I was in Boots at lunchtime (Belfast) and there is LOADS of sale stuff left. I wasn't tempted at all, in fact I'll be giving the 75% sale a miss this year too. I have too much stuff.


    Good luck everyone and happy shopping!

    its not a special event day, so yes, you'll be able to use your mailing/advantage card offers with sale items (there will be some mailing term exceptions but it will say on the back of those whether you can use them on gift sets etc).

    threshold spend, money off, points when you spend xxx amount etc, can all be used on sale day or before/afterwards.

    Talking of the advantage card offers, don't forget to charge your cards online before you shop. Go to My Account/Advantage card/my offers and it should show a list of offers to upload to your card. They currently have a 200 points if you spend over £20 which doesn't expire until the 19th.

  • Fiddlesticks! My husband is usually on a late shift the week of the 75% off and we fling the children into school and then fly up to Boots to get in things for Mother's Day, birthdays etc and then go past Clintons to see what Christmas nonsense they have left reduced. This year however, he thought he was doing a good turn by switching to an early shift and there's no way I would manage school run then bus and make it in time to get anything worth getting. Double fork.

    Is it worth sitting up all night and having a go online or will it be another Lush website crash disaster?

    I wish they would update their sale page and take off the sold out items as they happen.
