I know...and then they wonder why the SA's get so much abuse on sale day?! I'm not saying that it's right, or acceptable, to abuse a member of staff. But when you keep your customers away from their beds all night, they aren't going to be the pleasant and chirpy people they normally are!!!
Having worked as a sales assistant during a horrifically busy sale...please be nice to sales assistants! They get paid minimum wage to put up with all this crap from people when its the managers fault for poor organisation. It's knackering and actually customers can really really hurt peoples feelings, one horrid lady made me cry last Boxing Day...because we didn't have a pair of shoes she wanted in her size left!!0 -

Boots logistics team, and the whole IT department :
You're fired.0 -
Right Folks, i'm off to get ready to head to the store. I really hope the site comes back up for those of you who want your bargains.
For you people heading to Boots stores - be sure that your elbows are sharpened and your battle armour is at the ready!!
For those who are boycotting - I am annoyed that Mr Boots has made you feel this way! I hope you all get things sorted!
Good luck!!!All hail to the sale!!!!!! :beer:

I've been a sales assistant myself, I know exactly what it's like! That's why I said it wasn't right to be abusive to staff.
I was just saying, people aren't going to be as polite and pleasant as they usually would be because they are tired. That doesn't make it OK to barge in to the shop and start knocking staff over (which I have heard happen during 75% off day!!) and shouting at them. That's not OK at all!!0 -

Oh sorry I misunderstood you! Haha yeah I wish everyone could know what it feels like then I think people would be much nicer to us! I feel so sorry for the Boots sales assistants today...sounds like it's going to be murder!0
