Flying visit as my din dins is almost ready lol so no chance to see if it has been said by anyone else...

tin-tin says the target for getting orders sorted is friday...i asked fri am, pm? He says no idea that's just what he heard, so presumes it is close of business!

Orders will be sorted for then

However, depending on what stock is left after orders are sorted out...may go 75% online again or may be shipped to stores or beckton clearance

He added...if your order says processed you *should be fine*

WHAT A FARCE .COM IS.
Mr B needs to spend some serious money updating the site and getting a system that can handle large amounts of traffic.

How embarrasing for the web team to have to ''suspend'' the sale. Probably one of there biggest earners of the year, someone's heads gonna roll, as there turning customers away at a time when most retail outlets are going under on a daily basis.

Next year i will remember to give .com a miss and drive through the night to the other end of the country to find a store with the biggest selection of stock.

I have finally managed to fit my haul in the cupboards, i hope i dont forget where i have hidden it all.

ALSO still wondering if any GLASGOW bootsers have managed to find a No7 travel essentials bag. This was the only thing i wanted from the sale. If a fellow glasgow bootser has found one or several, i would be forever grateful if you would grab me it. I can either pay postage or preferably collect it on my way to glasgow airport on monday.

I've been wanting one of the Ruby and Mille sets since they were £50, can't get on website and there was none in store.

My store was terrible, literally about 2 shelves and it's not a small shop either.

Went to Chester today, started off in Boots, quite a bit if stock at 9.30 this am, got 2 of the Scents of Occasions, Excalamation Gift set, Oriental Gift Bag, and Accsesorize brush set, also got one of the Olay GWPS, think it was the last one, went to pay and the SA put everything through and put them on the side ready to put in a bag, told him I would pay with points. Checked my receipt when I got outside and had not been charged for the Accesesorize brush set, I was well chuffed:j Went back at about 2.30 and the shelves were nearly bare.

Slightly off topic, went to Ann Summers and got 7 bras for £10, really pretty ones, again really pleased.

Got this in an email, just enter your details, print off the voucher and you can pick up a free sample of Intervene at the Elizabeth Arden counter;)

Thank you!:T

A huge thank you to everyone who has posted the often-forgotten-but-very-useful information, in answer to questions, such as "What can you buy with a Blinkie that won't cost much?", "What's on special offer?", "How do you .../where do you .../can you ........ - there is always someone with the answer.

A massive thankyou to crazyposhgal who has worked her bloody socks off for us, and without whom we would be in a rare ol' state!

In the words of Kate Winslett, or almost, I'd like to thank the bus driver who took me to Lakeside, the one who took me back, and stopped the bus long enough for us to alight without falling over, my DH for taking us to and from the bus stop, and anyone else who knows me.

Thank you.
