    I know I said I wouldn't post BUT ...... I got 9 x S+G Gift Sets today. Good use of 3000 points or what? I searched high and low, 6 different stores, and finally pot luck. Only saw one, but bounced over to the nearest SA and asked her if she could have a look. She said how many do you want? I was like 2 more would be great. She came out with 9 in total, and I was like I'll have the lot, thanks darling! Should have seen her face, it was pure astonishment. LOL. I shrieked Hallelujah and came very close to doing the new Pu$$yCatDolls song routine (check out I Hate This Part video on YouTube), but remembered I had left my cowboy outfit at home, so did not bother! I was like the cat that got all the double cream and the gold topped milk bottle. Yay! Now my points are just over £100. Woohoo. Go Mimi! *back into hibernation until next week*

    Do you not think buying 9 sets is a little greedy. Is it any wonder I have been to 4 Boots in the last 4 days and the shelves are empty. Think that glitch will be fixed soon dont you think??

    I got one of these with a pinkie, but its not working at all, I seem to remember a few others having this problem. I was wondering is it worth changing for a new one or something else. Are they any good when they are working? Any advice welcome thanks

    I don't think it's a 'glitch' as such, this one...... just a really good offer, with the 3 for 2 :)

    Have to say though, I agree with your post........ 9 does seem a bit 'much', especially when so many on here are struggling to find even 1 :o
    You can't control everything in life....... your hair was put on your head to remind you of that :p

  • Looks as though those gold gift bags are out of stock now for anyone that was planning on ordering :( Had some in my basket to test the glitch (even though I never intended on getting any) but just tried again through quickshop and they're definitely no longer available. Hope they honour them for anyone who ordered though :)

    Prob gonna get shot down in flames for this but hey ho gotta put my 2p worth in at the end of the day who decides how many is too much? Maybe they need 9 or just love the stuff that much. If they want it and its there fair game to them, oh and i have 1 set which i spent £15 on soap and glory that i didnt want so as i could get it when it first came out

    Well 3 is the minimum for the 3 for 2 offer and I guess without knowing what mimi's motives are for buying them we shouldn't start having a go.....

    :D
    "Buy me, Lady", said the frock, "and I will make you into a BEAUTIFUL & WHOLE & COMPLETE human being".
    "Do not be silly", said the Man, "for a frock alone cannot do that".
    "True", said the Lady, "I will have the shoes and the bag as well".
    :rotfl:
  • Which Soap and Glory sets are they? And why are they in such demand?
  • does any oner have a piccy of the sets in question.

    Greedy? Not really no! If you can get yourself over to West Yorkshire I am sure you will be able to get your paws on some, the lady did say they had lots left.

    I've been to 6 Boots in the last 3 days, each time I was told that they had sold out. It's first come first serve! They never had a label saying only 3 per customer, so I don't see what the problem is. I have collected my points and I can use them on whatever I wish.

    MELGIRL, trinket is in the post. You should have it for Thu.
