  • I'm noticing alot of people are getting quite worried about the fact they mind not get one.. let me just remind you that this offer is on for a whole week, if you don't get one online/ in store, they are bound to restock several times over the week so stop losing sleep over it! Good luck to those who are going to qeue in this weather or sip coffee all night!
    This is true and I've just received an email from Soap & Glory telling all about the £20 Hatbox tomorrow so they are drumming up a lot of demand so therefore it (hopefully) follows that they've allocated and sent enough stock. :D
    Really looking forward to trying some of these products for the first time, my favourite is the sugar scrub and their body butters, oh and the hand cream of course. Will be nice to sample their other stuff and at a decent price.

    Do you think they'll have a max order? I only want one but it always annoys me when some greedy so and so goes and orders loads and then waps them on Ebay! x

    Not 100% on this but someone posted somewhere saying there was a limit of 3 per person online. :confused: Instore is a different matter, no doubt you'll see the ladies with their shopping trolleys there...:rotfl:

    That would be the case for any other OOTW but this one is the last before Christmas and will sell out very quick, some stores don't even have them stocked in my area . In my view holding back for the coming week don't expect them to restock quickly on this one they will outsel the sanctary ootw quite easily due to the good value of the products, get them early to avoid dissapointment is always the case with these offers.

    "This is true and I've just received an email from Soap & Glory telling all about the £20 Hatbox tomorrow so they are drumming up a lot of demand so therefore it (hopefully) follows that they've allocated and sent enough stock."

    Its just marketing does not mean they have enough stock to cope with the demand, in my experience these offers sell out and fast and so much more so if they are on 3 for 2.

    I think it's some primevil hunter instict that makes this all so exciting... x 7.5hrs to blast off xxx
  • Can anyone help please, to save me going through loads of pages, is the Soap and glory available online after midnight. Will they deliver to store or home address before Xmas? Are there any other good offers as well? Thanks for help.

    Anybody got the lowdown on any of the glasgow city centre stores stock? dunno which one is the best bet if i dont get one online tonight
    Sauchiehall street had them piled up in a couple of displays about 3 oclock this afternoon. There must have been about 20-25 on the shop floor.

    I was instore at lunchtime... bit the bullet and brought one to the till. The young SA told me that they would be £20 tomorrow and that I should buy one today and bring it back and re-buy it for £20 'as they would all be gone within minutes'! I was touched by her kindness in telling me (my faith in the local Boots SAs is restored). She said that she shouldn't be telling me but she hated the thought of me paying £30 too much! Bless her!!!

    So... I bought it and will bring it back and re-buy it. Sorry, I know I shouldn't but I had a terrible night's sleep last night and have a really early start tomorrow, and cannot afford to stay up until possibly 1am to order it. Plus I was able to pay for it with points, which wouldn't have been possible online.

    *hangs head*

    :o:o:o:o:o:o:o

    (in my defence, I only want one and it is not for eBay!!!)

    Will they let you do that? Might go and buy one tonight. Really want one but so skint. Just be my luck to be 30 quid out of pocket!

    Yeh I know, hence the (hopefully).... :D

    The majority of people I've spoken to are hoping Boots.com will change the details promptly so an online order can be made in case the shops run out/don't stock.

    But I really don't think these are gonna be on 342...
