    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Phoned Boots in the Oracle in Reading and they refused to give me any idea when their 75% sale starts - same for other stores in the area. Has anyone else in Berkshire had any more success?

    Was in the oracle yesterday and tried to get a date out of a SA without sucess... I even argued the online 75% sale had already started. She had no idea.

    One question: if I go to sale when the store opens, will the tills be programmed for the 75% off? is it automatic? or should I wait some hours?

    Could anyone who has a definite date for the 75% sale at their store pm me and let me know the store and what date it starts and i will add them to the first post.

    Manchester City Centre - Market St store - Sale starts Monday

    Manchester Fort Retail Park - Phoned the store and asked when the sale starts and was told they weren't sure IF there was going to be 75% off as they don't have many products left and usually leave them half price :confused: I suspect there are only a few things left and the staff fancy them themselves as last year I spent over £100 on 75% off items.

    Will visit later today and update on stock levels just in case.

    phoned my local store - they say the 75% off will be tuesday or wednesday - they were VERY vague - phoned customer services and they said that 75% off is online only and will NOT be in store at all - what a load of rubbish coz we all know that's not true!!!

    Hi

    I'm not sure if this is in all the Boots stores but i went to use my vouchers from the recent mailings and i had 100 points for Always Ultra. As i was looking the SEL underneath the Always Ultra Freshelle x8 pack Extra Long Plus was 40p...I put the last 4 in my basket and at the till handed over my voucher but it wasn't scanning, the lady said they haven't been so they had to add the points on manually..but she said i would only get 100points in total..i know other times when they do scan its 100points for each one, never mind i still got a bargain as these are £1.59 each.

    BTW they had put alot more christmas items on the shelf that are half price ready for when it drops to 75% off

    They're still full price online, do you think this will be in all boots stores? :o

    It has been reported that the current £5 voucher does not work with the hand cream.
