    Having spent all day wrapping presents, writing cards to people who I haven't heard from for years, cooking, babysitting etc etc, I've just read today's Daily Express.

    On page 3, there are photos of various shoppers, braving the elements in different locations. And, in Plymouth, there was a man who must belong to a very small club.

    His head is down, the snow is falling, but he manfully strides along, clutching a S & G tote bag in each hand!!!! :eek:

    The handles are cleverly threaded through the Boots carriers, and it is wonderful free advert for Boots.

    I hope the wife & sister, or wife and mother, or two lovers of this man appreciate the effort he has made!

    One of the guys in my office got one for his girlfriend - he dismantled the box and bag as didn't want to be seen with the girlie pink!! But then again we told him to get her it as she'll like it - so he's going to wrap all the items individually as it looks like loads of presents!! :T
    At least the fish fingers are still frozen, that's what I keep telling myself (Truly Madly Deeply)


  • I got my confirmations:j:j:jtook them 36 hours but i've got my confirmations !!!!:T
  • Eighty one beautiful pages on this thread! :j Now this is looking like the ol' Boots Grabbit! Sorry, but I can't resist it ......... when does the 75% sale start!!!!!!

    Glad to hear that, you ordered about the same time as me.:)
  • glad people are getting confirmations - as to those who haven't yet, don't give up hope!! and if all else fails, complain and complain and maybe you'll get a good amount of points, buy all peeps presents in the boots sales (basically for free!) and then treat yourself to 2 next year!! that was my plan if all else failed... Now knowing my luck, half the items will be missing or it will mysteriously vanish in store!

    Dundee def had them late on yesterday, but that I would imagine has almost certainly changed by now after a mental last saturday before xmas shopping frenzy!

    However, I bought two online yesterday... delivery to Dundee store weds... and if you want the second, I'm more than happy for you to have it. I always buy an extra, just incase any of my soap and glory fanatic friends miss out! I'm just going to get it refunded when I collect mine, but as I say, feel free to contact me if you want it.


    wow thats so nice of you fleagle. might pop into dundee tomoro, depending on the snow(!) as i was wrapping presents tonight, and have a few things i still need to get, but if i dont get a soap and glory tote, i will give you a PM. Thanks again Fleagle x
