I wait all year for the Boots Christmas catalogue to drop because it is my secret weapon for stocking fillers and beauty steals under twenty quid. Last season I snagged a No7 set for half price and my sister still raves about it. With the date being November eleventh already we are deep into the chaos and I have not spotted one in store yet. Do they mail it out or just stack them by the tills? Should I check the app for a digital flip-through? My mum swears by circling pages with a highlighter but the kids just want advent calendar ideas. Please confirm the 2025 launch date plus any early bird hacks. I need this before Black Friday hits or I will panic buy rubbish. Any must-have pages from past years? 
Boots kicked off the 2025 Christmas shop online back in late August with Star Gifts dropping on the twenty-seventh. The full gift guide lives on their site now as a digital browse with categories for under five quid treats and luxury hampers. My local store had printed guides by mid-September last year so pop in this weekend and grab one free from the beauty counter.
Boots went mostly digital around 2020 to save trees and postage. The 2025 version launched with their fairytale ad on November fourth featuring Puss in Boots hunting beauty gifts. Check boots dot com slash christmas for the interactive guide it flips like a mag and lets you wishlist straight to cart.
If you crave the tactile feel some stores still print slimmed-down versions around October twenty-third when the fragrance boutique opened this year. My nan hoards them for bed reading and circles the bath bomb pages religiously. Download the PDF from the site if yours runs out it updates weekly with new deals.
Advent calendars hit shelves in early October for 2025 with the Beauty Stars one at one hundred fifty quid stealing the show. The guide spotlights them on page ten or so in digital form. My tip skip the luxury and grab the skin-focused one for seventy it packs Drunk Elephant minis that feel posh without the splurge.
Star Gift of the Week started August twenty-seventh with half-price No7 palettes every Thursday. The online catalogue rotates them so refresh often. Last year my best find was a Benefit bronzer for twelve quid that lasted through January sales.
For in-store hunters the free gift guide popped up with the campaign on November fourth. Head to the escalator end where they stack them neat. My coworker swiped ten for secret santa brainstorming and nobody batted an eye.
Past must-haves include the Laneige lip balms section around page twenty in 2024s guide. This year Beauty of Joseon joins the lineup for K-beauty fans. My skin routine upgraded thanks to a ten quid sheet mask set circled in red pen.
Black Friday ties in from November twenty-eighth so the guide teases those deals early. Sign up for Advantage Card emails they ping exclusives like twenty percent off the calendar. My inbox lit up yesterday with Puss in Boots promo codes.
Make it family fun by printing sections for the kids to mark toy-shaped bath fizzers. The guide has a secret santa under ten quid page that saved my office swap last year. Total win for zero waste and full cheer.
Star gifts on Thursday seals it. I will set a reminder for the next drop.
