Boots 75% off Sale - 14.01.2015

athtrasna · 13-01-2016 2:37pm

Very little left on Baggot Street lower, did get some S&G stuff though

yellow hen · 13-01-2016 2:47pm

Is S&G stuff really that good? I've never used it but am intrigued with the mad rush for it every year!

ams · 13-01-2016 2:57pm

It is nice but the scent can get a bit sickly after a while - I got the sets two years in a row but wouldn't bother with them now!

I'm really not into it - the scent is awful imo! I would like to try the cosmetic sets but boots have an eternal 'more stock coming soon' on the one I'm interested in, while reducing it to peanuts

dockc · 13-01-2016 3:12pm

I was in Half Moon Street at lunch time - nothing much left - id say ud need to be in first thing in the morning for the big stores

podge018 · 13-01-2016 3:22pm

nothing for men bar the lynx sets which aren't a great deal even at the reduced price, the shower gel is grand but you can get better stuff cheaper.

Got some slippers, a hip flask and 2 'memory box' picture frames.

Saw a few people with trolleys full at the check out. One woman was getting the girl to price check everything before she decided whether she wanted it or not. Just as well it was not that busy, but even still that must have been infuriating for the girl.

yellow hen · 13-01-2016 3:41pm

Are the half price clothes included in this 75% off?

Lia_lia · 13-01-2016 3:49pm

Was in the Half Moon Street shop at 1ish, nothing there really! Mostly teen stuff. Needed to go in anyway for cleanser and dental floss so had a look upstairs just for a look.

Last year they had notices up on every shelf indicating before and after prices. Not there this morning in 2 stores I went to.

Half Moon Street circa 10 minutes after it opened this morning.

dockc · 13-01-2016 4:33pm

are u kidding me - some people dont know what they want! thats crazy

smallgarden · 13-01-2016 4:42pm

Picked up the whole shebang in the square, tallaght around lunchtime. They seemed to be bringing them out in batches as there was none when I first went in

13-01-2016 7:12pm

Just picked up the big Soap and Glory bag in Roselawn, still a few left.

athtrasna · 13-01-2016 8:18pm

Boots in Blanchardstown centre looks like it was ransacked!

snubbleste · 13-01-2016 8:25pm

Ah now, they have Listerine Total Care 1l for €3.74, compares to £3.97 in UK. so that is a good deal.

yellow hen · 13-01-2016 8:41pm

For anyone looking there were some of those S&G sets in Maynooth and they weren't garnering much interest. There was other bits and pieces left. I got the last Sanctuary set and I got lots of baby clothes which is what I was really after.

SmallTeapot · 13-01-2016 9:27pm

Anyone by any chance stop by the Cresent Limerick today? Just wondering was there much stock left....

Boots Childers' Road had FCUK candle/lotion sets, small Sanctuary sets, Christmas wrapping paper, large Ted baker and Reiss sets for men, Joules hand-care sets and a couple of other small bits and bobs. No S&G sets sadly

annamarie2013 · 13-01-2016 10:04pm

Was anyone in Liffey Valley- much left?

dan185 · 13-01-2016 10:43pm

Manchester today. Insanity.

FoxyVixen · 13-01-2016 10:50pm

Few decent champneys and santuary spa sets in athlone at 5pm. Got a few bits I had my eye on so happy out. No S&G left though.

13-01-2016 11:22pm

Saw quite a few S&G sets in Stephens Green this evening if anyone's looking for them.

Rashers72 · 14-01-2016 11:24am

All sold out bar 1-2 items in Lwr Baggot st plus lots of wrapping paper!

Sunny Dayz · 14-01-2016 11:38am

Madness from looking at those pics yesterday!! What do those people with the trollies fully do with it all? Gifts for during the year/next Christmas or selling it on?

shakencat · 14-01-2016 11:59am

twas madness, i walked out of liffey valley, felt like i was in america!

lindtee · 14-01-2016 1:37pm

I still have stuff in my present cupboard that I bought from the 75% off sale a few years ago. I don't bother anymore.

shakencat · 14-01-2016 4:13pm

i got a lot on half price sale, yes i may not have saved so much, but id never of gotten them if i waited for that dreadful day!

Dolbert · 14-01-2016 5:29pm

I got a few nice bits yesterday morning which will do nicely for birthdays etc! I went to Boots Maynooth at around 10 and there were no crowds at all.

Greenmachine · 17-01-2016 5:55pm

Whats the best way to search the boots website for Sale stock? Searched "Sale" and there were 64 pages with 12 results per page. Any way to narrow this down. Putting 200 per page still requires 4 pages. A huge amount of the results are for baby stuff, which I don't need right now.

smallgarden · 17-01-2016 7:37pm

if you scroll down to promotion on the left hand side and click on what you need

shakencat · 17-01-2016 7:44pm

they show you stuff that is sold out too.. which is really annoying

Really really annoying. Any childrens clothes i wanted to buy were all sold out. Very frustrating

Search category descriptors suck.

Sorry to bump up an old thread but when should we be expecting the 70% off sales - this wed?

Yes.

Inmyownworld · 09-01-2017 11:46am

Is it online as well as instore?

muckety · 09-01-2017 12:27pm

Yes though you might find different stock in store as opposed to online. Also, I have ordered online in the past and some items did not get delivered (went out of stock after ordering).

Inmyownworld · 09-01-2017 1:09pm

Be worth popping in to have a look so - wonder will the perfume sets be reduced more, some are a great price already

Because plenty of the stock you actually see on their website is sitting on the shelves so it can be "oversold". I think Halfords are doing the same.

mad m · 11-01-2017 9:26am

1/2 price stickers still up on shop floor this morning. Don't see any 70% off. Not looking good.

lasair · 11-01-2017 9:28am

i was informed it was being pushed back as so many other places have lots of stock. online it's still 1/2 price

Kajemo · 11-01-2017 9:34am

Apparently its been pushed back till next Wednesday 18th Jan.

dockc · 11-01-2017 10:14am

Stopped by Boots on my way home from the gym this morning - and still at 50% girl said they dont know when it goes down to 70% but seems like next Wed so - was all set and all for the buying!

gerry26 · 11-01-2017 1:53pm

I am interested on clarins detox gift set. Down to 19 from 28. It's worth for 19. Just the detox bottle itself costs 39 when bought separately. It comes with a bag clarins cleanser and hand cream. Anyone used this product is it good.havent used it before. Will I wait until 18th Wednesday. Thanks

Hi I haven't used this before, but if you really want it, I'd say get it before the 18th I know it'll be reduced, but you run the risk of it being gone and then you'll miss out?

ams · 11-01-2017 2:44pm

I doubt the Clarins will be reduced further - the perfume etc doesn't go below 50% - its just the gifts that were on 3 for 2.

gerry26 · 11-01-2017 3:46pm

I ordered two sets now. Thanks. Hope I will like it. I use clarins serum and beauty flash balm and i like them.

oneweb · 12-01-2017 5:25pm

Still 50% posters and shelf edges this afternoon if it saves anyone an unnecessary trip.

vicwatson · 12-01-2017 6:10pm

The 70% sale is not until NEXT Wednesday 18th 2017 according to a consumer wan on "this morning" yesterday morning, she said it's always the 3rd Wednesday of January (that might be in GB only of course, but it's unlikely the ROI stores would go ahead of the British ones so I'd take it as being NEXT Wednesday 18th)

In the last 3 years it's only been 3rd Wednesday of January once.

It should be the 18th though. 11th prob a bit soon.
