    2 sets already reduced by 75% (due to large amount of stock of them, the sales assistant told me)
    "Gok Bag of Indulgance" €15

    More than likely to be the week after next that the 75% off everything will start. Sadly won't be able go get to a boots first thing then so will end up with what's left after work :(

    I seen some things for half price but no big sale. The assistant told me this was the sale :rolleyes: I consoled myself with some 19c Cadburys Fudge bars. They were full size ones in with the sweets and not marked as an offer.

    No, unless it is a razor christmas gift set. Its all the christmas stock they are reducing.

    The 19th is a Saturday/ All the pointers are that it will be the 16th unless they change tatics this year. Staff are not told when its going to be on either (apparently) I'll be going out of my way to get to a boots on Wednesday so it had better be on:pac::pac:

    The braun razors are well reduced as it is.

    Some are 33% some 50% and one 66%. I got the braun series 7 790cc in liffey valley boots for half price €210. That's the absolute top of the range one with the clean and charge base station. Its an absolutely fantastic machine. its half price on amazon too about €180 but they won't deliver to Ireland. i think its classed as dangerous goods because the cleaning pack solution is flammable.

    It was half price on the boots UK site for about a week and is gone back up to £300 now.

    The series 5 is a pretty good razor too braun are way ahead of Phillips and Panasonic imo.

    How do I find out how many points I have on my Boots card? I have never used my Boots card to pay for anything and I've had it for 6 years!

    The total is printed at the end of every receipt when you collect points so if you can find your most recent receipt, it will be the up to date total. Otherwise you could just ask them to check for you at the till :)
    Enjoy spending all those points!!

    Boots will be doing the gift sets tomorrow the 14th at 75% off. The usual suspects Gillette lynx and all them type. My niece works there and they were doing the pricing and store displays after work this evening, she said they have lots of stock and pretty much everything that was on the shelves over xmas is available.
