    I have got baking and cooking to do tomorrow, don't have time to sit infront of the computer waiting for the Boots sale to start! Not the best time Mr Boots, we mummys are busy preparing for this years big day!
  • Hmmmm just looked up the equivalent thread from last year.

    According to what people were posting, the site went down at around 1am on the 24th last year as well, and didn't come back until midday the next day. Ah. So maybe not worth getting too excited just yet?
  • I don't need anything, I don't want anything, so I'm not going to buy anything. I may well however, stay up, because due to my slovenliness this year, all year, my house looks like a bomb has gone off in it, then the squatters moved in. I do not have a tree up and I can barely walk from one end of the living room to the other.

    My 19 year old son has suggested we give the house a christmas present and clean it.

    Where is that flylady thread again?????????

    Can anyone confirm whether the sale is starting within the next few hours?

    I tried logging in about an hour ago and got a generic error, same when adding things to my basket. Now Boots have a holding page up..

    Are these the right signs? I don't want to stay up if it's not tonight :D

    Any help much appreciated!
    Cheers - Merry Christmas.

    *This is referring to online Boots sale, In store sale begins Sunday 26th*

    See what you have started? :T I just hope we all get a lovely suprise and it starts earlier than anticapated.
  • I suppose it is fairer for everyone if it starts at a designated, pre-arranged time rather than some random godawful hour of the morning. Some people have better things to do than stay up all night.

    I however am a student so actually as it happens do not have anything better to do, plus am more or less nocturnal anyway, so it would have suited me just fine :)

    I have to laugh, my OH is on nights tonight in the IT departement of his work and cannot believe that Boots would take the site down until midday tomorrow, in his words he said 'it does not make sense' and called them amateurs!;)
