  • I know that some of the items have limits of 3 per customer - as are popular items I think.

    The thought of it. SandraScarlet womble-ing around boots, list in hand, dodging the Olay reps....thankgoodness for the handy stool you found to put those heavy Olay creams on!! Sounds hilarious.:rotfl:

    Had a little doze and now feel wide awake! For anyone who knows the Bond Street store, the R & M sponges and things, and No 7 bits like the nail buffer and case, are on the last aisle, in the basement, ( and there are loads) and beyond that are about half a dozen manned tills, and 4 SS tills, so lots of staff about.

    Naturally most of the stuff we wanted was way down, so Dee read from the list and I looked for the stuff. We were trying to maximise all our shops so that we reached the magic £5, and could then use the Blinkie, but after about 20 minutes, we were just so tired, that we sat on the floor!

    I kept trying to separate our shops into !st Shop, 2nd Shop etc, and after a while Dee wailed "My heads hurting! My brain can't cope!", so I had to sort it out on my own and then - neither of us could get up!

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    We were laughing so much, and we turned round to see several SAs, watching us with amusement - oh I do enjoy a good ol' laugh - best medicine around!
  • How funny was that - when the clock striked midnight there was no one posting on here - all checking Boots! :)

    right, to test my theory, could someone put 7 of these in their basket.

    http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=121784&langId=-1&catalogId=11051

    my basket says there are 7 left and they are in my basket. If one of you could try to add 7 of these to your basket and it works, then my theory that if someone wants somthing and it is in my virtual basket, they can still put it in yours, then it should be available for you.

    If it isn't available for you, I will take all my totals back down to 1.

    Does this make sense?

    I notice that previously people have said the online sale started at 3am. Do you think they have it set on their system to put the sale on at a certain time?
