I rang them 1:30pm and they were sold out. Doesn't matter ordered four online now for £80!

Blimey, that means they've sold 2000 between 8.30am and 1.30pm!

My tiny local had 97 in stock. They had one shelf that fit 4 on and they had to keep fetching more from the stock room to fill it up. They said they learnt their lesson from last year as they didn't have many hatboxes last year and by the time the staff took what they wanted there wasn't any left for customers.

I got one :j love soap and glory. Everyone instore was saying how they thought although ok it doesn't maybe look as nice as the hatbox having the tote bag is going to be of more use in the long run.

I was NOT going to be ordering one of these but caved in as thought it would make a nice present next year. Good saving when getting it for £20 with Parenting code.

I can't believe I stayed up till 2:30 waiting for the site, then I went into my tiny local Boots and they had a dozen of them stacked up inside the door:D I'm not sure what I will use the bag for (the box bit inside might work as a bathroom caddy) but the products are definitely worth the money, there isn't anything I don't like.

I think they anticipated the rush!! I REALLY don't need one as I am getting a mountain of Lush for Xmas but I have one for pick up Wednesday...at my local store...yet I work in London...all day. DOH!

PC code didn't work for me either. Which is a bummer as I DO have 2 kids under 3 and regularly buy nappies and baby food from Boots

Quite gutted, would love to have one today but after waking up and finding them in stock online I didn't want to risk walking into town to find they were sold out, then coming back to find online had sold out too! Still I have one to collect on the 22nd so can't complain too much

Do the sales assistants in boots think they on the place or what!!! Tried to use my parenting voucher said i couldnt because it was already on offer!!! so i asked her to fetch the manger who agreed it could be!! then asked to use my points and said NO as i had used the voucher (not sure if thats true or not so didn't argue) then wouldnt let me use a 300 bonus point voucher i had as she said one voucher per transaction grrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!

Anyway got my bag for £20! they had stacks in my store as no one was buying them!!!!
