Boots 70% off 2017

Deals

Does anyone know when the Boots 70 % off will start in January 2017?

UPDATE Wednesday 18th January 2.15pm

The following ties in with the Friday whispers I'm getting:

MSE Update, 1.40pm Wed 18 Jan - We've just received confirmation from Boots that its sale is boosting to up to 70% off in-stores from Fri 20 Jan.

Note from Tom: I am copying these updates from this deal post by Johnny. I would add that it was MSE who said on ITV that the Boots sale would be on this Wednesday, so not sure if I'd trust them very much - or even Boots itself.

UPDATE Wednesday 18th January 4.15am:

Boots website is still 'live' with no sign of the boost to 70%. I think it's safe to go back to bed!

UPDATE Wednesday 18th January 3am:

As the Boots website is still live at 3am with no holding page etc I think it's unlikely to be today folks. I'll keep monitoring for another hour or so just in case...Strong rumours now that it will start this Friday instead.

As of now it doesn't seem to be advertised yet on Boots' website.

http://www.boots.com/en/Offers/

Not to worry, I've send them an email asking about it so if they reply back I'll be sure to let you know. ^_^

And yet we have it posted in the deal section. Crazy.

Dread I checked the official website as that's usually the one source to go for. For some reason the one on LD shows up as 'expired'.

Hi Rockman

Thanks, no it’s OK, just a temporary hiccup. It's now live again.

Don’t expect a formal announcement of the date of the January 2017 Boots 70% Off Sale on the Boots website (or anywhere else) until the very last moment. Boots will want to clear as much Christmas Stock as they can during their ‘50% Off Sale’ that’s running now (at a higher margin), before their final ‘70% off’ clearance sale begins (i.e. with the extra 20% off).

If Boots announced the date of the 70% Off January Sale now, customers would delay their purchases until that date (waiting for the lower price), and Boots would make less profit. Sainsburys was equally hush-hush about the actual start date of its 1/2 Price Toy Sale last autumn. Latest Deals was amongst the first to post the rumoured start date of that one attracting thousands of new visitors via the Search Engines.

Contrary to Dread’s comment, my posting of the likely date of the Boots 70% off sale in the deal section before the event starts is not ‘crazy’ – doing so both helps keeps Latest Deals’ users informed, and helps attract new visitors to Latest Deals via the Search Engines.

It can take Search Engines like Google a few days to index and re-index the posts on Latest Deals. Wait until ‘Sale Day’ before posting and you miss the search engine boat by a country mile. It is good that the Boots ‘story’ is also running in the LD Chat section, but it’s worth noting that LD’s Deal posts get a higher profile ranking on Google than Chat posts.

Conduct a Google Search for the ‘Boots 70% Off January Sale’ today, and you’ll see the top search results on Page One are from Latest Deals’ competitors. Hopefully we can join them in the Page One results and attract some of that user traffic to Latest Deals.

Johnny True. Companies avoid promoting new offers before getting rid of stock they don't want.

The best to go to stores which located in stations, like the London Liverpool Street one, they have stock. Online all the offer will go in minutes.

Hi Maisy

I would expect so, yes. BUT last year Boots only increased the discount to 70% on Christmas gifts and fragrance gift sets 'In-Store' on the start date (the online discount remaining at 50% off).

Been into my local boots store here in the Isle of Man and they have removed all the Number seven sets they had on display on Monday. asked one of the ladies on the till where they had all gone to and she said they were all put away in the stock room by order of management; there is hardly anything worth buying from the store in Douglas.

A lady in boots has just told me it's tomorrow... they have been told today. Theyve been told to take certain things off the shelves (the no7 gift set 😫) as they won't qualify for that discount...
