The highlights offer worked in Prospect Centre on Tuesday - not sure if it's still working now but there was no magazines or wipes left after my sister got myself and me one. (The junior assistant looked very surprised at it but I doubt the senior assistant would have let it go through tbh - even though it was a straightforward transaction - no bleeping etc.) I'd seen the wipes before I realised the offer was on, but never seen more than a couple at a time - and always on the clearance section for 25p.

The Boots near the Ice Arena had loads of magazines, powders, but no wipes.

Kingswood had loads of magazines too, but wouldn't let you buy the powder with wipes (none on display either) and wouldn't even let you have 3 4 2 on anything related to the powder. That was today btw.

Magazines in Beverley today, but no powder to be seen - or wipes.

It's all getting a bit confusing lol, but thanks to whoever spotted this bargain, (although I'd never have spent 10.00 + on it ) and to crazyposhgal for the daily updates.

I'm now officially 'Boot'sed out' x

Hi Passion was there much left in the sale at Prospect Centre. TIA x

Just Ask


If anyone is having trouble finding the Highlighter powder, ask at the No 7 Counter.

I have been in 2 branches, and had to ask as there was non on view. Each time it was in the pull out cupboards under the display. Maybe they are hoping we will just give up and go home. No doubt when the offer is over, it will reappear.:j

Hi ruby

I didn't have time to check out Prospect Centre today :eek: but on Tuesday they had oddments like the Badger Sets, and the usual - crackers, mugs with chocolates, and good old Ted Baker

little_laura, sorry haven't seen any around, I like them too.

I see you are from Manchester, which is the best shopping centre to visit as I am coming that way on Saturday. Someone suggested Arndale? centre but I have just read about the Trafford Centre, which is best??

Hi pollsdolls

I tried in Hull's Kingswood today, but they just wouldn't allow it - even though I was buying plenty of other stuff Maybe if I'd found a friendlier SA I might have plucked up the courage to ask, but this one was one determined SA. So I gave up lol, but thanks for the tip. It might be worth a try in another branch

ETA - just realised you meant the powder so I'll definitely ask in Beverley. Thanks again.

All upstairs as far as I could see but the Ted Baker stuff downstairs with the mug sets (if my memory serves me right).

Weird about the Ted Baker sets (and the Badger sets) as they weren't far away from the full priced TB and Badger stuff

That was one of the oddments that was put out on Tuesday in Hull, but it went quickly. If I see it again, I'll grab one for you little laura.

Many thanks Passion xx

I'm sure there was a poster on here who really wanted one of the Badger sets. Hopefully some left and I will get a couple for others etc.

Don't forget to try Boots down Whitefriargate in Hull. Not being myself but I'm going for a looksy at weekend. They always have a sale shelf in there no matter what time of year.
