    I've just counted up my total spend and it's 89.99! I feel terrible spending that much even though lots of it is for gifts - loads of it is for myself!! lol I couldnt help myself I just kept seeing things I liked! oops!
    I have also noticed that in one store I got 2 x scents of attractions mini perfumes but they are on my reciept as half price, so £9 not £4.50...were these 75% off for everyone else? might have to ring cs tomorrow, or actually go into the store, which scared of doing incase I'm tempted to buy more stuff! eeek! sales are great - but dangerous for weak-willed greedy magpies like me!

    My mum is all sorted for everyones birthdays and next christmas, will save her a tonne of money as we have a huge family and she has heaps of people to buy for at work! She was so pleased with herself! hurrah!

    Hi

    Does anyone know what is in the Accessorize gift boxes? I saw a few today but didn't have chance to see what was inside.

    Thanks

  • do we think there is much chance of the shelves at meadowhall being filled up again for tomorrow, ie do I go back tomorrow??

    Did anyone try Parkgate in Rotherham, did they have much?

    only a few left behind a till, and I asked the SA to please check the price and it was only 50% off. Since they disappeared from my local boots, I wonder if people just bought them thinking they would be 75% only to realize to late they weren't.

    Still for fragrance it does not seem too bad, since the coffrets were still 1/3 off ONLY today (someone mentioned here that with valentines it makes no sense for them to discount the coffrets). Shame, or I'd be buying everyone I know a coffret in Boots for xmas 2008!!

    :D That was me - later on I heard a SA tell his colleague in an aghast voice that customers had started coming in before the shop opened - so seems like I wasn't the only one. Well, they would leave the doors open, that's not going to stop us moneysavers!


    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: i would have started to cry if I had got thrown out - this really gave me a good laugh though!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I've seen a few mentioned so perhaps we could put them all together in a list so people know whether they can safely pass on the gift later on in the year. I'm happy to edit this post, and then just copy it over to the lovely crazyposhgal (just so she doesn't have even more work to do) but I know its something I would find useful - if you know of a voucher in any of the gift sets, or if you have opened a giftset and it does not have a voucher them if you would like to PM me, I will try and update this post :)EDIT: Thanks to all contributors :) - Please feel free to PM me if the set DOESN'T have a voucher as this is useful to those of us who won't open the sets as they are for gifts :)

    Done a list on the first post earlier for everyone. Beat you to it :p but thanks
