Does anyone know what is special about this hatbox?

Is it just the £50 worth of S&G products for £20?

I tried to get one online this morning (my sister wants one for herself and not a gift) but failed and just looked through my S&G giftsets from last year and discovered I already have unopened 6 of the same products as in the hatbox (I'm not an not an S&G fan)

Just wondering whether to try instore tomorrow?

i just think it is a really nice present for some one who wants pampering a bit . Managed to get mine as a treat with my points :Tso very happy now after all the trudging round i have done for everyone else, and bought one for my sister cos its looks really nice and is fab quality for £20.

Can i also just say a big thamk you to all MSE'rs who have helped make my christmas shopping easier and with some fab bargins thrown in. :beer:

I ordered this morning online at about 8.45 and paid for delivery and mine still says being processed, so it seems the norm i think...
I went into town after, had a peek in boots, saw loads of them, rang my mum and asked if she wanted me to pick one up so she could get it for my sister, she says yes, i say 'Oh i ordered mine online this morning' and she says 'Oh dont buy another then, i was going to give it to you not your sister' :rotfl:

this offer has sorted me out for 3 Xmas presents :beer::beer::beer: . i wasn't the only one carrying 3 ( or more ) of these things around Fosse park in Leicester . pretty much everyone at the check out picked one up as well .


still had plenty left when we were there at 2pm ish .


Great deal . well done Boots !!

what time did you order at? I ordered at 2:03am, standard delivery £2.90 and mines is dispatched.
My mum ordered at 6:10am, standard delivery (but free) and hers is still processing!

3 on the dot!

Ahh, I spent more and got free delivery - that'll be why then?

OH went into Boots in Wrexham this afternoon, they had all gone.

He was told that because they were all sold out online, that no stores will have any further deliveries.

Not sure if that is true or not, I keep reading different things all the time lol!

If I can get one in a local store, then I'll be happy, but it isn't the end of the world if I don't!

Well done to all those who persisted and managed to get one (or 2,3,4, etc lol)!

Just had a despatch email. I ordered at 6.10am but have paid for next day delivery.

Not sure whether this will be despatched but logged in to boots around 11am and added 2 to my basket and like a previous post kept crashing then became unavailable.
Just logged back in a couple of mins ago,still in basket and taken my payment when i have gone to checkout.

so for anyone that managed to get some in basket..but crashed..quick double check,may still be there !!!!!!

fingers crossed

I'm starting to wish I'd paid for delivery as it seems those of you who paid for standard or next day delivery are getting their orders dispatched. I ordered at 2.45am but chose store delivery and my order is showing as being processed.

I may be jumping the gun here but it will be a bit unfair if those of us who chose store delivery miss out if Boots system couldn't cope.

Well done to everyone who managed to get one, the whole country is going to be smelling of S&G!

Don't panic, lol
I ordered mine at 2.20am with standard delivery and mine is still processing, a few people who ordered after me have had dispatch emails. So by the looks of it they are not processing them in the order they were received.
Finger's crossed we'll all get them
My delivery date is 22nd

Well done you!

My sister wants it for herself not to give as a gift apparently - think she will have to go without or have my S&G sets from last year as wasn't too impressed with the products I tried

Perhaps they will get more in before xmas and I will get her one with my Boots points in the sale? - here's hoping!
