I know we're all aware this is coming but hopefully this helps confirm. just spotted this in the sale aisle of my local. I played the daft lassie and asked if the laura Ashley set was 70% off - SA adjusted the 70% off sign so it could no longer be seen (she slotted a white bit of paper in) and said "no - the 70% off promotion starts tomorrow".
good enough for me!!

Oh no I would never be that awful. Having read what I wrote again it does sound terrible the other way... but no I meant I acted clueless to a 70% sale.... I didn't want to ask outright as I've heard staff are not supposed to let on. As it was she was a very nice lady. I could never talk about retail staff like that -or anyone for that matter. I'm so embarrassed how it reads now - and i'm sure your not the only one who may have read it that way. oh dear.

I think OP may have been referring to herself (playing the daft lass that didn't know anything about the upcoming 70% sale every year by asking about the Laura Ashley sets...)
I hope that's what she meant anyway! Benefit of the doubt and all that.
Heat for the deal if your store has anything decent left - nothing but junk left in mine.

Worth the hype? Not really. I think Boots have realised people will buy anything if it says 'Sale'. I remember this sale being much better in previous years. Haven't bought a single thing tonight! Money well saved. Hopefully others found what they were looking for :stuck_out_tongue:

as a man, I have an irrational fear of going into Boots.

Should have taken a picture of the 70% off sign before she hid it, they normally honour it at the till, they you'd have been ahead of the masses

My local is Metro Centre,Tyne and Wear...but I will give this a miss I've seen what's left and to be honest it's not even worth the price with the 70% off...
