They do a Loyalty card wth no catches, very useful. I don't shop in her so much, unless I'm feeling flush as most things required are sold less expensively else where. I did get caustic soda here the other week, as the cottage suffers from bad drains, and gosh, it works wonders. Around Christmas I was preparing for a short hospital stay and, wanting my daughter to feel a bit special, came here to buy her a toiletry bag. I ended up getting myself one too but two days later they were both half price!!! Boots are handy for gifts - and some of their hair accessories are great. Especially so if you some money on the loyalty card. I have been known to see the queue for the check out and put everything down and leave, though.

Boots has an incredible Christmas gift selection with many 3 for 2 saving everyone that little extra cash in the holiday period. I would mention the boots advantage card like a clubcard you collect points when you purchase but it is better because you earn 4 points to the pound and each point is then worth a penny. Also in store there is an optician's, boots direct doctors, photograph developers and pharmacy so a lot of errands can be done in one hit. It is always best to shop around but make sure boots is always on the list. I do tend to avoid on Saturdays and late night shopping in the run up to Christmas as however much I like the shopqueuing for long periods starts to slowly melt my mind.

Most people think that Superdrug is in competition with Boots, but in fact they are co owned. Superdrug has a good selection of goods; cosmetics, toiletries, electrical, and first aid.

The in-store offers are always really appealing and at Christmas their range of gifts is impressive. Recently Superdrug's perfume area was moved and now unlike most perfume shops you are allowed to roam freely among the scents trying them as you please so none of the having to ask an assistant over and over again. The layout of the shop is easy to negotiate and understand but it can get busy at peak times like all shops in the town.

The pharmacist has a consulting room, so if you wish to discuss side affects or such you can do this privately. They do a delivery service and will fetch your prescription from the surgery too. Lots of gift material on display, as well as cards, and make up. My daughter always goes straight to the nail varnish, which she is not allowed! Please be aware that if you are on medication and you don't feel quite yourself, the pharmacist is well trained to discuss this with you and to help you feel better. You don't need an appointment for this.
