Thorntons Mint Collection bargain!

I dont think theyre annoyed at the delivery people-more annoyed at the shop-I have a feeling if Thorntons refund the delivery charge there will be no blame either way :beer:
IMO the stores know they arent getting delivered within the time scales and should proactively contact the customers to offer refunds on the delivery price
Exactly. As far as I can see there's not even a notice on the Thorntons website acknowledging the weather and warning people of possible delays?
Some online stores have excelled themselves in this weather (I've had emails from a few different companies today saying they're offering complimentary free delivery due to the weather), and some stores have really let themselves down

Yum! 6 boxes of 'mint' (btw they are bigger / different contents to Tesco version), advent calendar and a few small chocs, less than £20, arrived this morning!
Thanks so much OP, I wouldn't have bought them at full price, so this means we won't have to have the cheap versions!!

At work I got a Thorntons "advent calender" of offers and on the 6th December it's says "Mint chocs half price" and it's online and in store.
So hopefully more bargins for people0 -

Perhaps as another poster said they are short staffed. It took my DIL 4 hours to get to work yesterday for a 1/2 journey and my SIL 9 hours to get home from work last night.0 -
I paid by Paypal and had no email confirmation but had my 4 boxes delivered today! Very happy!

I am feeling exactly the sae Stargirl90 - I am in one of the worst hit places and am waiting on 4 deliveries - ASDA are the only ones who have let me know they will not be arriving when they said they would.
