Hi Jediteacher

Sad to say the lady with two trolley loads wasnt me! I only had one load there!!
I was also thinking of Luton store which is huge! Always lots of toys. But already panicking about what DH will say with the mountains of bage I have here!
Did you see the big red boxes 'Learning Through Play Rocking Snake?' (suitable from 18 months) upstairs? They were marked up at half price at £12.50 but when I checked at the till they were £6.25. So I picked one up for my niece's first birthday in MArch. They are great value! They had quite a few left and most people were walking past them as they werent obvioulsy in the 75% sale.

Thanks for that. I did see the rocking snake but didn't get one as my daughter got a winnie the pooh rocker for Christmas. I did notice that a lot of the toys that were in the half price sale have now been put back to their original price. Luckily, I read on here that this might happen so picked up the stuff I really wanted when it was 50% off.

My OH will also go mad if he sees the bags. However, he doesn't get home till 6:30pm which gives me some time to pack my treasures away. I will have to wait until my baby girl wakes up though as the rustling bags will wake her up and as she's taken to having a 3 hour 'nap' these days :jI'm not pushing my luck!

The two trolley lady is still a mystery then. I'm sure she's a fellow MSE Bootsers!

also in this No7 sale stand you can get last GWP this purple bag with voucher for 250points WYB any No7 for £1.68

Argh! So jealous! I really wanted that GWP but couldn't spare £18 to spend on No7 stuff I didn't need when it was out. I've tried every Boots store within a 20 mile radius of here to see if they have any reduced but haven't found any

I'd just like to say thanks you guys for the heads up on this one. Got to Lakeside for opening this morning and before long word got round and the place was buzzing with excitement. I managed to get lots of little presents that will do for all birthdays this year and with me out of work at the mo it will save me a fortune - plus I paid with the vouchers I earned at Pigsback! One very satisfying morning! Thanks!

These sales are really mad !! The Richmond store had around 8 baby anabelles for a £10 and alot of bratz dolls too. The sales staff were soooo helpful and would put stuff asside for you to have free hands to shop some more, they also would check out prices for you etc. Really impressed by how friendly they were. Managed to buy lots i needed and lots i didn't ;-)

Just got back from boots westwood cross. Not a massive amount on sale there compared to other Boots on this thread but got a couple of things:

The No 7 compact down from £12 to £3
Sporty pink washbag with assorted smellies £12 to £3
Coffee set - 2 mugs and 2 different coffees with a scoop £3
Sweet baby hat and mits for £1.50

So didn't go too mad but have got pressies for february birthdays covered.

Well, I got to Fort Kinnaird Edinburgh bang on 9am, along with about another dozen ladies. The stuff was flying off the shelves and some ladies had two trolleys each, but there was a lot of good natured banter and laughing and showing each other all the best deals. I spent my entire cache of £54 of points on enough toiletries and girlie birthday presents to see me through this year, plus things like the miniature reading lights and sponge bags for our summer camping holiday. The staff were really nice too and being as helpful as possible about splitting down shops so people could pay for some things with points and the rest with cash etc.

One thing on my list was to get one of the new Barbie Island Princess dolls for £5 (reduced from £20) and they had plenty left, so Young Miss will be happy. (I got one for the birthday present box too.)

I had also been sent on a mission by a working friend to find her TWENTY Island Princess bubble baths. They were reduced to £1.25 each so she wanted them for party presents rather than have to make up twenty party bags. (Wish I'd thought of it first....) so between 9am and my 10am appointment I hit the other three small Boots en route and managed to find them all for her, lol, plus another couple of small sets for me. I do love a challenge! Of course, I used a couple of 100 point for £15 spend vouchers as well during all of this, and came up with another three £5 skin care vouchers, ahem.

This has been a great thread, fun to follow and lots of rewards at the end. Thanks to everyone who participated!!!!! :beer: :T :beer:

(And I might go back tomorrow......)
