I'm just wondering if anyone has had any joy getting a box in the Glasgow or Renfrewshire areas. Have been to Braehead and Silverburn, both of which have none and are unsure if they'll receive any more.

None in Taunton, Somerset today overheard two sales assistants talking and they only received 20 despite it being a medium sized store. Thank goodness I managed to get one online.

Can i just say how wonderful people are in offering to get one for those unable to and those offering one that they have !!!
It really gladdens the heart .
I have one arriving tuesday all beacause of MummyandPaige' s hard work in getting me one ,
She has even told me about a courier service that if i went through Quidco , I would get 4.00 cashback .
I'm so grateful to her and to the others for offering to posters on here :T:T

Was in Reading this morning; the large Boots in the Oracle had them stacked high at the front of the store. There was loads...

They are all long gone. I decided to go in and buy one and call CS to cancel my order online afterwards (as it still only says "processing" and I really wanted to make sure I actually get one) and there was nothing there as of nearly two hours ago. So now I'm depressed, which is stupid because my order hopefully will actually come next week. It was just such a let down after getting hyper-excited on the way in and feeling sure there would be some left. Next time I will either skip it and avoid the hype, or just order online AND go to the store, as having too much feels better than a big letdown. Hubby said he'd shell out 50 quid on eBay if my order doesn't come, but I won't let him.

None in Bicester .... hopefully I'll feel well enough tomorrow to try Banbury

FYI, there is no more stock in Reading nor is any coming. The closest store with hatboxes is Slough.

I can't believe ppl paying stupid prices on ebay for them!!!

Shame on those that bought lots to sell on ebay
If people just bought their own instead of being greedy then there would be enough to go round. Ebay and Paypal are the only winners in this and fellow MSE'rs are the losers and the profit made on ebay is probably not much compared with all the hassle of travelling to get them from the store and getting in a Christmas post office queue to post them etc.

My OH just tried to get one and was told there will be more stock in on Monday - do you think this is true or were they ikely just fobbing him off?
