  • well i'm off out on a Christmas party tonight should be back about midnight if transport on time. I only hope I am sober enough to order or that I'm not too drunk that I forget altogether!!!!
  • Popped by Cribbs today and they've got hundreds of these sets, a whole gondola, and all over the top of the make up, and shelves upon shelves of them!
  • My lovely hubby is working a night tonight and is going into Boots on his way home at 8am to pick up my hat box for Christmas. I am so excited!

    Just popped over to Watford to collect the FCUK bag I ordered. Whilst I was waiting, the store manager happened to be on the next till. I asked when the price changed over and he told me when the store opens in the morning. As I have to go in another direction tomorrow, I asked how many he had in that store. He checked and told me they have 600. Maybe, when I get back I might go and get one.
  • Liverpool Church Street is also overflowing with the hat boxes they are stacked everywhere !!
    :D

    You have as much right to get one for you as anyone else going for one! :D

    I agree. I was buying one for my stepdaughter who probably won't appreciate it as it's not Chanel/Dior and didn't cost a fortune and I've decided to have one for me as well. I will appreciate it lots and it looks nice under the tree seeing as we are so skint at the moment we are doing without gifts (mainly due to stepdaughter's expensive tastes and mr shoe*gal throwing money at her) and just having a token each. £20 counts as a token in my little opinion. Go get one for yourself and have a treat.

    I have now decided I DO want one for Christmas so oh is going to have to carry 2 back to work
    The SIL will love me though as its her 40th birthday next week (so ootw has come with great timing) and she'll think I've spend a fortune on her - hope she isn't a member on here lol or goes to Boots herself and sees it :j

    Has anyone else noticed that the hatbox is much smaller?

    I was at the Teesside Park Boots branch last week and the box was really big (like the type you get a wedding hat in! But today all the "Big Thrill" £50 boxes are have the size??
