Set alarm for 2.45 a.m. Stayed up till 3.45 no response. Just got up to go to actual sale and I see Boots have excelled themselves again. Why have they not updated their website as this happened last year aswell. Glad I did not stay up all night and hope everyone manages to get something today.:j0

For anyone who is stuck at the verified by visa bit I just managed after what seemed like entering my password 25 times to get an order number so keep trying!:)
I don't have a confirmation email so no idea if I am actually getting anything :wall::rotfl::heart2: Proud mummy to my gorgeous daughter :heart2:Debts to clear: Mortgage - [STRIKE]£90k[/STRIKE] £76:starmod: Thank you to everyone who posts! :starmod:0 -
Yep got as far as page 4 then threw me out. This is not good. Im full of cold, sore throat & sleep deprived, really do not fancy going in to Town 4miles away when my little ones at playschool feeling like this but don't think i'm going to get far, the sites only going to get busier as people start getting up & looking before work/school run.

" Sorry site totally unavailable - except for 87 second intervals. We have no idea how to manage a sale and could not organise a hiss up in a brewery. We may from time to time let you glimpse your depleting basket, but expect no more!"
Oh you just have to send them that in an email complaint! It is so true.
I am giving up now, the items I most wanted have gone out of stock whilst I can't access my basket. Like most of the others I got to the check out stage and then it crashed. I am going to write an email complaint too and will be telling them that I will be shopping elsewhere the rest of the year not just at sale time.
It is probably true that they don't actually care as long as they sell the products but they surely need customers the rest of the year too and this sale fiasco is putting customers off. The website isn't good at normal times of the year so it hasn't got a hope at sales time.0 -
Ok Mr BOOTS! I've had it! Stayed up until 1am waiting for site to come up, woke up every hour to try and get an order through. Been up since 5.30 trying this stupid site and it's still not working. You have 10 minutes to take my order before I get ready to go into your stores in town and if one of your SA gets in my way............
Lol, this is all getting very serious now. There had better not be a queue when I get to the big store....0 -
I just checked out relatively easily in the end....with a normal credit card. HTH0
