A_little_stressed!!

R we thinking the sale will come back online after they've cleaned up the backlog of orders?

Also did someone say they got a 75% off hairdryer? Any1 got pics? My hairdryer blew up last month!

I phoned cs (lady was right stroppy!) and my order for delivery tomorrow (ordered 10.30am via paypal yesterday) is being despatched (received no emails from Boots only from paypal to say Boots have taken the pending payment).

My order i ordered at 3.30am via paypal - standard delivery to be delivered monday - is being processed and she said i will be receiving it. I have order confirmation from Boots and paypal pending Paypal.

I am happy now and it was worth getting up for at 2.30am now!! That is majority of my 2 younger childrens Christmas present s and birthday pressies done now at fraction of what it should of been.

My order has been dispatched too - and it seems to be on the delivery van for today. I didn't request next day delivery. I placed the order, eventually, at about 3.50am yesterday.

Is there still a list of gifts with vouchers inside? If so the No.7 purse set (was £15) has a 250pts coupon inside

I placed 3 orders today, 2 next day delv and one normal. One of the next day is processing and 1 has been dispatched. Both showing a date of tomrrow.

Just to update all 3 orders have been dispatched and out on delivery today. The normal order was placed at 2pm yesterday afternoon.

Im not going to start a new thread until everything settles down with the site. Do you think this is the best idea or should i just start a new one

Incidentally I'm convinced that part of the problem was the multiple reservation in basket thingie. Everyone (but me) seemed to be after S&G and P&P sets and were doing things like put 99 into their basket to keep an eye on stock. The stock update mechanism seems to be the Achilles heel of .com and it's very possible that if you refreshed a basket with 99 S&G sets in it then .com would not just update that to say 60 in stock, it would look around at all the other baskets with 99 S&G sets too and just have a hysterical fit. And then all the other baskets would freeze too. And with everyone trying frantically to get through check out and the stock going out of baskets during this bottleneck was causing more errors. Etc.

I also think it had to be this as i was also not after either of these and my besket went through pretty easy too.

sophisticated.

I would wait until the weekend cpg, wait and see if .com starts working again

I dunno...it's getting a bit unwieldy on this thread. Why not start a new one but with an easily removable note on the .com problem?

i think i was one of the last to get an order through just before they took the sale off. I couldn't get into my basket at all so I had to start all over again with a new basket to stop the errors. Not every item was in my favs but for quickness i went in my comp history and found all the items i wanted. Only s&g out of stock.

It says my order is being processed and will be with me by tuesday. I pid with a cash back cc and went through pigsback so fingers crossed it all worked.
