Four deals I’m shopping in Boots payday sale as an ex-employee
Having worked at Boots for four years while I was at university, I learned a thing or two about how to differentiate the good deals, from the ones that simply weren’t looking at. From stacking vouchers and staff discounts to get my £7 No7 wipes for 42p to holding out for that 90 per cent off clearance sale after Christmas.
Since parting ways with what was certainly my favourite part time job - pot washing at the local pub less so - I’ve maintained my beady eye for a bargain, even if I can no longer enjoy the benefits of employee discounts.
This weekend, the high street favourite has launched a payday sale which has seen reductions across dozens of categories - some of which are a lot better than others. The event makes for the ultimate opportunity to make a dent in your Christmas shopping, treat yourself to some new makeup, or simply stock up on some of the essentials.
Here are four deals I think are well worth considering this weekend:
Beauty advent calendar worth over £175 for £44
Boots’ has been reduced from £90 to just £44, making it but what’s more is that when we did the maths, the actual value of the products inside are over £175,

The Boots Macmillan advent calendar costs £90 and stars best-loved brands like No7, Liz Earle and Soap and Glory (Boots)The calendar has been reduced as part of the retailer’s weekly which change regularly in the run up to Christmas. It’s likely that this is the cheapest price we’ll see the calendar at. When it goes back up to full price, it will still be on but to buy three at this price would make them £60, so on this occasion, it’s better to shop early and scoop those savings.
Inside the calendar are including Soap and Glory, No7, Liz Earle, Sleek, Botanics, Boots, Champneys and Ted Baker. Filled with pamper night essentials and beauty besties, the calendar features everything you need to get glammed up this Christmas and beyond, from eyeshadow palettes and £18 primers, to skincare saviours and sheet masks.
What’s more is that £2 from every calendar sold will be donated to Macmillan Cancer Support providing essential care and support for those who need it most.
