i've just checked my order history as well...the 2 orders i put through this morning that went through to the "enter the 3 digit code stage" before the site crashed are showing as processed...no confirmation e mail yet....the order i put through this afternoon that i have had the confirmation e mail for is showing as received???? wonder if i'm gonna get the ones from this morning or not??

I forgot to mention earlier that I bought a silver brag book (photo album) for 6 x 4 photos for a friend who has just had her first grand child, it was marked at £6 so was obviously was expecting it to be £1.50 - but it went through at £1.50 less 75% - so was 0.37p or so!!!!!!!!!! It cost me more than that for the wrapping paper to wrap it in!!

Just back from Bluewater and staff still unpacking lots of pallets although they were cordening (sp) the shelves off so that customers could not storm them. They still have lots of hair care, charles worthington etc. Even managed to get Sanctuary and S&G set. Glad I went now.

It didn't work for me instore. If anyone has success with this instore please post as I have nearly run out. I am too mean to pay postage and judging by the trouble you have all had with the website wouldn't bother anyway. Thanks.

I got the Photo cards for 30 p - they should have been £1.50 so worth a look - it was another customer told me as she had seen me looking at them earlier - Thanks:beer:

Try putting peach halves or similar in bottom to fill them up, then only 1 scoop of ice cream on top.

I had that error message...to fix it I closed down the site..or log out if it will let you....go back on as a guest...add an item to your basket then log in...i was able to make another on line order doing this...although now they all are going through at full price..if they come I will have to send them back or ask CS to refund me the difference.

chazzy2008: THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

Just done as you did- added Promax Diet Banana shake (but that's another story and twice the price I pay for mine!) and it worked! :j

Out of the 22 different items- 37 in total- there's 3 left..... a baby book, noddy set I don't remember adding and an UG mini kit! Guess I'll be up early for future updates- if they ever sort their act out!

Thanks again:beer:

Having been one of the many people on here who have either stayed up until 3am or set the alarm and got up especially for the 75% sale starting (for the last week may I add!!!), I found myself in the same boat this morning. Between my PC and my laptop I could not get an order placed. Eventually gave up around 7.30 and got the kids up. I got so annoyed and the best part is, I don't actually require anything, but I just had to have it - I'm sure most people here will know what I mean. Anyway, I phoned CS at 8.30 and they couldn't log on either but the lady I spoke to said that she would phone me back when her system was up and running - she thought around 4.30-5.00pm. I thought - yeah right! Decided to go to the Boots in town, got a few bits and pieces, came home and went to bed! I received a call just before 1pm, it was the lady from CS, she took my order over the phone, told me what was in stock and what wasn't (I had a list prepared of everything that I could possibly want, need, use - mostly toys!) and she also apologised for the inconvenience I had experienced (I have also now had a confirmation email). Don't know if it is still possible to ring up your order but it worked for me so may be worth a shot. I would like to say a very big thankyou to everyone on here who has 'entertained' me through the night and for all the tips and advice - I have decided that in 2009 I will actively read and contribute (if I can) to this thread, I got such a buzz with all the glitches at Christmas and the extra points I gained during the special event evenings, so have decided to make 2009 a 'Bootsing' year!!! I'm off to bed now and I'm not getting up until my 'proper' alarm goes off at 7am!
