A SAVVY shopper has revealed how she bagged a Boots haul worth £200 for just £2.
The high street chain has a huge sale on right now with as much as 90% off and customers can’t believe the offers in stores.
The Boots shopper has saved nearly £200Alamy
The TikToker @cazzaxo, boasts over 12,000 followers.
In one video, which has more than 30,000 likes, she revealed how she managed to get hundreds of pounds worth of Boots products for just a few quid.
Many of the items will be used for presents, the shopper explains.
For example, as part of her haul, she picked up a Buddy the Elf-themed lip balm set for just 80p, originally £5
She also got Baby Shark bath bombs for just 50p and candy cane and snowman bathbombs for 40p and Little Mermaid bath bombs for 40p.
She also picked up some Coco Melon gift sets which were only £1.20 – originally £12.
Continuing with the bath theme, the TikToker grabbed some Star Wars and Disney-themed bath bombs for just 90p.
Boots usually hosts the sale in order to clear out some of its excess Christmas stock as well as offer a chance for shoppers to bag a bargain.
The beauty store currently has a 90% off mega sale in all stores and online.
To find your nearest branch, just search using the store locator on the website – Boots has more than 2,300 stores across the UK.
The clearance launched last week so shoppers will need to be quick if they want to grab a bargain.
A few examples of deals currently available include the FCUK One Of Each Trio Gift Set – it was £12, but you can grab it for just £1.20.
There’s also a 50ml Ted Baker Mini Body Spray Rose and Cassis which you can take home for just 40p, down from £4.
Things to avoid at Boots
While shoppers are often spoiled for choice when they pop into a Boots store, not everything is worth your money.
Shoppers in the past have been left unimpressed by the rising price of the Boots meal deal.
The retailer upped the price of the lunchtime food and drink offer for the second time last year.
Prices have risen from £3.59 to £3.99 outside London.
Shoppers in London have also faced price hikes as meal deals now cost £4.99 – up from £4.59.
So if you’re looking for somewhere to buy your lunch on a budget, you might want to look elsewhere.
Plus, if you’re shopping on a budget too, you might want to buy your toiletries somewhere else as well.
For example, Tesco shoppers armed with a Clubcard can get a three-piece meal deal for £3.40, and Sainsbury’s fans can get one for £3.50.
Shoppers have been fuming in recent days over the “absolutely mad” price of Dove deodorant in Boots and several major supermarkets.
Customers had spotted a £6 price tag on a bottle, and although the chain said it was a mistake – the real £4.50 cost was still called “extortionate”.
It’s not the first time the retailer has been seen to have some costly prices on toiletries.
Back in 2019 it was found to be 15% more expensive than Asda for toiletries including medicines, moisturisers and hair removal.
Of course prices may differ from day to day and from store to store, but it’s always worth having a shop around before you make a purchase to ensure you’re getting the best value for money.
