Imagine our surprise pottering round Target this evening to see Welcome to the British Isle - under the old faithful Boots logo!! Sadly all girlie stuff but it pleased my wife - all the number 7 makeup and stuff. Pity there was no mens shampoo and stuff - but the prices didn't seem too bad.

Just checked the website and it shows the stores - a lot in Dallas for some reason

www.boots.com

Sweet...my wife loves their stuff. Our nearest one is in Miami but thats only 30 mins or so away.

none in arizona .... the nearest for me is in Las Vegas.

Ooooooh, exciting!!! I like their Botanics range, the nearest to me is about 25 miles away, will be stopping in when I'm in the area, thanks for the info!!

Somewhat related, Target's housebrand of clothing is named "Cherokee". When I was in Tesco in the UK the other week, I noticed that they were selling clothing under the Cherokee name too. The local and labels were identical to Target.

I guess Target and Tesco have some kind of business relationship.

But none close to Houston

bit of an arse, nearest ones are in the CVS stores down in CT...miles away...

I rather liked the botanics range of stuff as well...

I am gutted, there are none in NJ and the nearest one is 2 hours drive in NY state.

Never mind I'll stock up when I go to England next month.

Thankyou so much for that info Big D My store is 15 min drive, really made my day.

A big thanks from me! Although I live in NJ and there are none here, there are a ton on Long Island, where I happen to go all the time!!!! Yeah!

Yep, there sure is.

I must be particularly stupid today! Where do I look on the Boots site to see if there is a store near me in MA? Thanks

Click on "where to find us" at top right hand corner of web page

Extreme top right hand corner of the 'home page'.

There is also a 'feedback' section:


I'm going to phone this number today which is their corporate HQ in Stamford, CT and their enquiries/feedback dedicated number -

1-866-75-BOOTS

- and I'll be asking them to bring their products to New Jersey (there are sooo many British expats living here...).

In the meantime I'll be stocking up on my trip to England later this month.

I loved to shop at their stores in Bangkok, Thailand (one was located right next to the night market and bar area in Patpong where the guys would pay a 'bar fine' to have a Thai takeaway for the night... and I guess that their top selling product there is for condoms....). It was great at Boots there as they had their '3 for 2' offers exactly as they have in the UK....I wonder if they're doing this in the US?

There is one on the NY/NJ state line right alongside the NYS Thurway. A very large one btw. It is on the northbound side just north of the Palisades Mall.
