No Depp for me tonight.......

Options
:(Thanks Asda!

On the website the other day

'Preorder for delivery on the 4th June' Alice In Wonderland.

So I did and it's not arrived. I phoned them to let off some steam. I knew it would be pointless but what's the point in them advertising it on their site and then failing to deliver.
I said I could've stopped off on my way home from work and picked up a copy, but it said on the site it would be delivered today.
I said I have people driving up the M6 to watch it, we were going to order a Chinese for them.......

The young lad said why don't I nip out and buy one, then when the one I ordered is delivered, I can take it back to Asda for a refund.

If I did that I'd be going twice :mad:

Oh grr I am annoyed!

    How annoying!

    Is there any chance your guests could stop by and collect one? Personally, I think they should just give you one from stock (assuming you have an order number to prove you have paid) and let you keep the other when/if it arrives.

    It is worth waiting for though if you're a Depp fan....:D;)

    We've endured BGT instead, but never mind maybe it'll arrive tomorrow :)

    I think if I was as desperate as you sound (not criticising - if I hadn't seen it already i would be too :D) I'd have nipped and got one, to be honest. especially if it was a planned night with friends.

    BGT is NO replacement for Mr Depp!

    All I hear of the missus is Johnny Depp, Johnny Depp, Johnny Depp!

    All I hear off the teenage daughter is
    Johnny Depp, Johnny Depp, Johnny Depp!

    All I hear off the girls in work is
    Johnny Depp, Johnny Depp, Johnny Depp!

    Now I come on here and guess what!? :D
