    My Paypal payment has gone from pending in my current account to being invisible. Seems to have gone through at Paypal stage but not at bank. Just warning others in case you don't realise and spend the money thinking it's available. I got my order last week.

    My order arrived today - about three tonnes of chocolate, cufflinks, shower sets and socks! Box was partially destroyed when delivered due to the weight of the items...

    Just collected my first order. 2 sets of the minature perfumes, 1 Bench perfume set, 1 FCUK set and 1 Dove for men set. Cost £15. Really pleased with it. Waiting for my 3 other orders - all have been dispatched.
  • my online order came today everything on my list so sounds like I was lucky! Had a gas engineer in my flat to do a check and he asked if I worked for boots as there was piles of the stuff on the kitchen table, his face was a bit shocked when I said no, must have thought I had more money than sense as the original prices were still on most things £45, £40. £16 etc.....its quite the opposite in fact more sense than money haha :p Small local boots had few bits of christmas stuff crackers, cards and makeup bags, one slightly battered hatbox and strangely they still hadnt put any of the paper and tags with the other sales stuff, theres still boxes of it by the door...hmmm I smell 90% off sale xmas paper :D
    £264.05 / £11,000 in 2011 :j

    Poole store has tidied sale stuff to back & side shelves. Subuteo mugs and bits, Religion sets, few AA B & B sets, Weenicons, Chocolates, Sweets, Wrap etc, nothing much ladies left to speak of.
  • I made 2 orders on the same day. 1 has been dispatched and is ready for collection while the other still says being processed although it was supposed to be ready for collection at the same time. Does this mean it will be cancelled? :cool:

    Just got it - the dreaded 'your order has been partially despatched email.'

    Have lost confidence in Boots online now.

    Can't even put a silly face here, they are just so rubbish. Have emailed to complain (again.)

    They have now cancelled exactly the same item they cancelled in my first order - which magically re-appeared in the 75% off sale then was unable to be despatched.

    After phoning this afternoon about an order due in store today, it was escalated to a senior adviser and within an hour I got the partially dispatched email. No fitflops again deja vu from the 50% sale when I didn't get them either.
    My second order is due instore tomorrow and still shows processing, so I just rang again to be told (after checking) that the order had got stuck. Fellow said he has to refer it to a special team when it doesn't arrive on due date, apparently I should ring back tomorrow as it's not due until then. I pointed out that if it hasn't been dispatched it isn't going to turn up. I have to wait now and they should make contact within 24 hours.
    What a performance, 4 phone calls now and something different every time!

    Hope you like the other stuff in your parcel. Will we bother next year I wonder?

    It is still worth checking in store every day as I was passing through the Aberdeen store this morning and sitting there on the bottom shelf was an FCUK Charm tote bag. Wow was I so excited lol :j
    I had been in every day last week and spent money on new things appearing but did not expect to find anything new today.
    Apart from the bag there was not much else left, just the usual Subuteo & Weenicons etc.
