I was in the Fort in Edinburgh about and hour and a half ago and Boots still had a huge display of the OOTW if anyone in the area is looking for one. HTH!!

Bristol Cribbs Causeway still have loads if anyone's nearby - it's just off the M4 and M5, so also if anyone's not all that near but really wants one, lol! - there were some on the OOTW shelf and on top of shelves, and they brought down more while I was standing there unable to believe my eyes
(I was sure I'd missed my chance it as I'd tried ordering online at 7am and at lunchtime but site kept crashing, and figured they'd have sold out instore by 9:10am).

I'm now sitting here wanting to get at my goodies but trying to work out how to open it without damaging the box by ripping the stickers, cos the plastic seal is under the stickers!

I am getting worried that people are already getting dispatched emails, I bought at 2.30am and it's gone through fine and said it's processing: I went for standard delivery and I also ordered many other things with it. Do you think if I ordered that early it's likely to be canceled? I live near Watford and am considering tomorrow morning going in to see if I can get one, just in case.

Same here- I called CS to double check and mines all packed but just not updated on the system I can see

Boots in the Oracle in Reading still had quite a few at around 5pm today, if that helps anyone.

Best of luck to those still hunting for one.

I had to work all day so thought I would miss out, but decide to call the store as none available online, they said they had 2 left, so I asked the ever so lovely lady to put one behind and will be popping over later to pick it up Yipppeee.

Not to be rude, but can you read :eek::

Exucse me?
So its okay for everyone else to say if they got one or two or three, But I can't?

Oh yeah, thanks to me for starting this thread?
Stop critising will you!

Elvisia

thanks! I just rang them, they said it was being prepared for delivery. I assume an elf in their warehouse is busy wrapping it up. I do feel though as if I have earned the £30 saved on the stress of staying up all night and checking this board!

Yay I picked up my 2 reserved ones at 5pm The SA said they def wouldn't be sending out any more stock coz they were all gone (that may just be to her shop tho)

LOL - me too. My lips are tingling, my face is scrubbed, my body's been sprayed, my arms each have the different body butters on. The only thing I've put on one side is the Hand food as an extra prezzie for my mum - the rest is MINE

Thank god for that!! What a journey, I walked to Boots Fargate in Sheffield at 8 am almost breaking my neck going up hills in ice, spotted them from across the street on display, then had to wait while a really long supertram went past - was imagining like something out of the simpsons they would all be gone when it passed LOL

Got one then caved in and got another as a gift - it wasn't that busy, everyone was happy but every one in there had at least one - one woman had 5.

It is a national frenzy! At lunch time my boyf came to meet me outside work to take them home for me in the car and people in the street were smiling at the sight of them :rotfl:

Then I finally get home to be reunited with my hat box and put it under the tree...for all of 5 seconds....got it opened, danced around, tried the lip stuff and my lips tingled for ages!!! then realised it is a plumper LOL i was so worried....so thank heavens for your post or i would start to think i was allergic to s and g after all that!!!!

Nicole, and everyone else going on about how many they got, please spare a thought for the people who've missed out. Imagine how they feel. Some people have been hoping for this offer for weeks and looking forward to it since it was announced. (And it's NOT just you Nicole. Sandra requested that everyone consider the feelings of others. Not really an unreasonable request, especially at Christmas).

As has already been pointed out, this sort of bad feeling is how rows start and it's how we lost the original Boots thread. It's Christmas, a time for good feeling, not spite, jealousy and arguments.

If you got what you wanted, great, well done. But please don't rub other people's noses in it.
