    an update for you all - just called customer services and the whole site is down, they told me my order will probably be lost - got to checkout stage but couldn't proceed past payment.

    Good luck everyone with store buys. I'm stuck in cos i don't drive and OH is in work :-(
  • I was going to place my online order for toys then go instore for beauty things, think I may just be a grump now and boycott them!!
    Its not like it was a surprise, they knew about this thread, they surely anticipated the site traffic. Now fair enough we cant all get on at once of course but you die harders have been going all night and still nothing. I got up at 7.15 and been f5ing constantly and have got to secure payment page (well now its the orange people). I remember last year lots of us were saying boots need to sort it out, obviously nothing has been done!

    got to Edinburgh East End, the nice chap at the till had said they have quite a bit of xmas stock left as it is a small store... couple of gok sets, other body sets and smellies but nothing really of interest. will try st james centre or north bridge to see if i can pick up any more bargains.

    hope you guys have more luck online and happy shopping!!! :)

    Saw this thread and it's just a repeat of this time last year. Would have thought by now that Boots would get it's website up to scratch.
    Now proud Mumto3 :j
