  • You should try ordering online to save you having to line up. Suppose its perks of the job being able to get it first before all the customers :(!!

    They said they are only able to get one per staff........... but lots of staff work at boots. I'm using my advantage points so its free. If you cound do it online with points i'd rather stay up until stupid o clock and order that way. Crowds are my huge pet hate. Could always send my mum but she would prob slip me upside the head with the box when she got back he he he.

    If there are any codes that can be used against this soap and glory offer please please pm me. I dont know if any of the parenting codes would work or not, can someone point me in the right direction if the chances of using a code against this will work, I know there are parenting codes on the discounts board but does anyone know if it will work against the soap and glory tomorrow?
    Many thanks in advance :j

    I waited up online last year, ordered for store pick up - the sales assistant drooled at me when I did.
    But in the meantime I found two or three days in to the ootw - the Reading Oracle Boots was full of them, there was a mountain at the front of the store with no apparent interest, so you really can't tell what will happen.

    I bought three of the soap and gory hat box things last year, three days after it went on OOTW. Always makes me laugh when I hear about people staying up after midnight to order one, lying to get out of work etc...there's just no need.

    Really depends on where you live, I live in Ireland and I got a hatbox easily last year, I got 2 M+S offer cardigans at lunchtime today and I'm 100% confident I can get a S+G bag tomorrow but I'm not really sure I want it. Wondering if it sells out would they put the other bag on offer instead--the "all about her" one. I really like that. I think they substituted a GOK gift last year when the hatbox sold out.

    Hope everyone who wants a S+G bag gets one:)

    So any idea's what time it will go live online tomorrow ??
    :A
  • I'm not buying it this year, I still have most of the hatbox from last year to use up (mostly lotions which I rarely use!). The most useful thing was the hatbox, which is sturdy and I use it to store all the winter hats in by the door, shame its not in a box this year!

    Just spoken to Boots Customer Services who confirm that the S&G box can be ordered online from 3am onwards.

    I mentioned that it was midnight last year but they said this caused difficulties as it coincided with the daily update of prices on the website. There is also the option of free store collection but this takes up to 4 working days.

    Someone else mentioned the Boots Parenting Club offer. Can we simply register for this online and would the discount code then work for this offer?

    Update: Spoke to another Customer Service advisor who tells me I can order it online from midnight. So check to see if you can order it then otherwise it will be 3am.
