    Sorry - this is a bit of a winge:mad:
    Is there a time limit or do you think its a good enough excuse:confused:
    Claire :)

    There is no time limit for returning online stuff. I had a toy that I bought online and when I came to look at it a while later I found it was rubbish and I wanted to take it back. I phoned cs and asked if I could return it to store or and if I had missed the time limit. They stated there is no time limit:j . So I promptly returned it over a month after receiving it.
    I would suggest you email CS tonight and tell them it has made u stressed, and that you are going for section on Monday etc.......hopefully they'll give you loads of points as an apology....I think you deserve it!!!!

    Good luck for Monday too;)

    Just to add Clairog ...Dormouse is right they are slow at answering email but at least you can send the email, forget about it ....concern yourself with other(more important) issues and there should be a reply by the time you return from hospital!!!!

    I've just written a snooty email so hopefully it will work and I'll get some points back - thanks for the advise.
    Dormouse - promise I'm going to bed soon - I haven't slept properly for ages as so uncomfy but will go and try now.
    Thanks again

    also wilkinson and t g hughes and the bodycare shop have much better deals on perfumes even when you get points back from boots it works out cheaper

    i do still shop there every week in hope of the great bargain which is far and few between but"once a boots always a boots tart" i hope!
    with xmas around the corner we may get the chance fo more offers
    fingers crossed!

    Also consider these two factors. Has the perfume been left in storage for a while? (Places selling cheap perfume may sell old stock which will go off sooner and smell bad or lose it's smell) - [this probably would be the case with places like TJ Hughes]. Also storage. Changes in temperature, hot->cold cold-> hot may impair/reduce the smell.

    You have to wonder about Boots sometime, I have seen last Christmas stock (gifts, not perfume specifically) displayed this year as if it was new. Its been hanging around all year, but they wouldn't reduce it enough for people to buy it I think. Thats in two stores locally.

    Inside the 'Gorgeous' booklet that came through the mail recently I had a coupon for (I thought) Get a Photo CD Free When You Pay For 1 Hour Photo Processing' (or words to that effect).

    Hubby took 2 films along and as the photo CDs only cost £1 he ordered one for each film, anyway. Don't know how it happened as I was not there to see what came up on the till - but he ended up with 2 sets of photos and Cds within an hour - for £7.99 - the price of one set of photos + CD @£7.99 was listed as a multi-save and came up as a BOGOF!

    Whether that is coincidental to the coupon and is a current offer, I don't know. I couldn't see the coupon mentioned ion the receipt at all (which could have happened if the machine didn't accpet it due to there being another offer) However, it seemed like a good deal to us!!!:j
