Gave up on website - and on the way to school called in at my very small local boots....and guess what!!!!!..............they had loads piled up!!! Grabbed 3 for pressies and am well chuffed! No one else there....I was the first the purchase I think!
The staff didnt even know how much they were!!!!!
Oh well, a waste of 1 hour on internet but pleased now!
Good luck everyone else. Think if you can go to a store then do so!0 -

That happened to me at stupid o clock this morning (3-ish!!) so i no longer need to send my elderly father out in the snow to queue up for me... i think he's a little disappointed actually - likes a challenge blessim!0 -
So glad I woke at 6 and ordered one! I will be interested to see if there really is a mad dash anywhere to get this boxes. I probably could've sent hubby this afternoon and had a nice clean hatbox today, rather than waiting for delivery and hope it doesn't come damaged or dirty like so many Boots deliveries have (which would be awful because the box is the most important part to me!). My fingers are still crossed until the hatbox arrives safely in my hands!0

So glad I didnt stay up last nite!!!! Popped into Boots this morn, first one in, not a single queue, no mad rush for the hatboxs, hatboxes stacked up in the middle of the shop floor, no elbowing- just silence. I actually wondered if they'd opened yet. Bought 4, SA asked me only 4? Lol, So pleased with this, my mum & sisters will be thrilled. The hatbox is very aptly named, just looking at them gives me a Big Thrill! Thanks OP. Lol, my brother also just bought me one as a Christmas present so I'll have 2 for myself, that should last me a while. :j0
