    A few years ago when I used to go to the Boots sale I got some Gok Wan gift boxes. The boxes were nice but the contents so so. Its all the same stuff with different "designer labels" on it. The only stuff I would but is Sanctuary but even so I sold 3 of the Sanctuary perfume sets on Ebay at Xmas that had been sat upstairs for 4 years. As you say a load of tat but I have to say I did enjoy going to the sale before the worl knew about it!!



    Again...same as...I remember not so long ago before it was heavily hyped up...there was actually a 90% off sale and stumbled across it while shopping in Watford one day at the end of January...that was a good day ;)


    wouldn't happen now, you're lucky to find gift wrap now at the end of day 1 of the 70% off sale...

    Now that is real cute :D. No point in me rushing to my local though, Extra Store but no clothing department. They do however have a small range of socks down pants for men, women and children :cool:


    It's quiet in here I suppose they are all at Mr Shoes, I'm staying in the warm and going to engross myself in Series 3 Peaky Blinders later :T


    See you all later xx


    I'm leaving that one in for TM, she'll like it :D. How does and become down I wonder? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    AJ...I actually had quite a lovely time wandering through the clothing with the hand scanner....I wasn't lucky enough to find the lounge joggers or pants at anything less than £3 and they were all really odd sizes,either too big or too small....but finding something at 4p did remind me of the good old penny days.
    Some of the small childrens clothes were scanning at less than the ticket price ....good bargains if you need them but I just don't have the little ones to buy for anymore.

  • Well, went to T to get UpnGo and it seems they haven't brand-matched because the Vanilla and Choc both scan the same, as 'drink' which brought my number of items down to 9 instead of 10.

    Some you win, some you don't, hey ho...

    So be careful, don't rely on different flavours of UG to make your items up to 10.

    This was a Metro shop, btw, don't know if that made a difference.

    CoS will help a bit here, but I've never paid so much for these before, feel a bit miffed.
