    I got mine from Boots in Kensington this morning before work! :)
    I asked them how many they had in stock and they said they had over 200 so hopefully they'll have stock for the rest of the day at least! ;)

  • i got mine a 9am in dumfries scotland, they had them stocked up at door, i bought 2 of them and got the points from that, then i got points for the woman behind me coz she didn't have a card! the assistand said none of the staff could buy them till lunch time....the assistant was desperate to get one! apparently in dumfries they will sell out in 2 days which isn't bad. i see the boots website is down! so glad i didn't rely on that!!!

    Well done!

    Just out of interest, why are you worrying about it being cancelled? Just asking as I ordered mine at 2am (Soooooo tired today!!) and also opted for collect in store. Does that make it more likely we'll lose out?

    Because they might run out of stock - and cancel the online orders.

  • I set my alarm for 7 & got to the store for 8, dispite being full up with a cold...I needed hatboxes!! Got 2 for me, paid with points, 1 for my mum, 1 for my best friend & 1 for my friends gf, hes giving the money but he keeps saying why dont you tell me bout all these offers before you get them rather than after!
    Quite a few people in the store, all buying hatboxes! They were handing them out still in the cardboard boxes which had 2 in as so many people were buying so many! 1 woman left with 7, dont know how many they had in but cant see them lasting long!!
    Opened it up & its lush, the box is fab on its own nevermind all the stuff in it!!
