    just went back to Fareham store to take back something that was damaged and the shelves where almost empty compared to lunch time HOWEVER the staff where still bringing out little trollies with really nice stuff on such as S & G bags and a gorgeous overnight bag I tried to get online and couldnt.

    I might pop back tomorow and see whats left as they still had stuff out the back to put out, still had loads of strictly stuff and fearne hat boxes etc left

    my feet are killing me as was in the shop nearly all day just looking at what was coming out !

    Hope you all managed to get some of what you want

  • Just got in from work, coming via the Reading Oracle branch which I hadn't gone to in the morning.

    A complete aisle of the Gok sets and Fearne hatboxes - oh dear! Got one of the FCUK bags (I think they had just been put out - maybe got missed in the stocking earlier on). Quite a lot of choccie things (very difficult to go past without looking but my scales would protest). Cards and photo stuff there too.

    Not at work tomorrow - trips to the vet and hospital for cat and mum (hope I get the right one to the right place - lack of sleep can do things to your concentration!) - so may pop in and see what dregs are left. I can't believe the fiasco with the site....

  • just trying to check their site out god its horrible im sick of the bloody "boots.com is currently being updated" sign.

    I'm fed up staring at that too - all night and day!Something looked a bit odd with the wording and it's just clicked! (unless I'm so darn tired, I'm losing it..........)
    I'm right though, aren't I :question: Can they do anything properly? :o

    If anyone is still trying to order on line, the 3 Charlie sets and the Lily O'Brien chocs still add to your basket even though it says out of stock when you click on them. the Mikocat bath stuff is also available. HTH but probably not a lot!
  • Hi Everyone

    Boots were a bit naughty as lots of the toys were 75% off the clearance price but were put in a different area. I picked up a nurses outfit and pirate outfit and the price on the front was £5, was originally £10, when I got to the check out the till run it up at £1.25. This worked out more than 75% of original. Do check your stores if you are after toys as I went back and got lots of different things, Lego Tub only £2, Dressing Gown & Slipper set Only £2 but was marked up still as only 50% off.

    I hope this makes sense!!

    Just managed to place an order online for £40+ worth of stuff. Took just under half an hour, with the majority of that being at the checkout. Thankfully didn't place the order more than once as the 3D secure thing popped up.

    Hurray!

    (Good luck to the others trying!)

    One of the small pharmacy stores had a few items with clearance stickers marked up at half price. I had to persuade them to scan the original barcode for 75% off. I bought a couple of bath sets and they had no idea they were 75% off until I told them
