    From Daily Mirror website.

    Valerie, your feedback is really useful. We have heard reports of readers queing outside Superdrug stores so we are aware that the offer has been really popular. If you have problems please report them to customer services and will ensure you don’t miss out. The details are above but see below just in case –
    call Customer Services on 020 7293 2220 (9am-5pm, open Monday-Friday) or email cservices@mgn.co.uk.

    What is the point of putting an offer in the Mirror if when you go to the store they are sold out within five minutes of the store opening. This is not the first time it has happened. I have now got to the satge that unless it can be sent for to the mirror then it is pointless going to the shop to get offers as they are always out before the day begins. I am very surprised that everyone gets up at the crack of dawn to go to superdrug to collect a shampoo as they open their doors.
    Too many children, too little time!!!
    :p

    I just had a look on the mirror website about this issue

    So I called and spoke to someone at customer services who said to post your Tokens to the address on page 2 of The Mirror and they would send your items to you. I asked if I could wait until the end of the week and send any I hadn't been able to use in one go and she said yes :D She took some details and asked what area I was calling from.

    She did state that it is still 'while stocks are available' but that they would ensure we got something.

    Address is:

    Daily Mirror
    One Canada Square
    London
    E14 5AP

    Is not ideal but is worth a second class stamp :p

    Thanks for this information.

    I got the shampoo today but no moisturiser - was told they all went quickly. Annoying as I really wanted that one.

    I shall email cs and send my voucher(s) in at end of week and hope that something arrives.

    Mind you, they do cover themselves on the voucher with "subject to availablity, first come first served" - in an ideal world we would all get the freebies without problem!

    Luckily I went to the store to check if they had any of this stuff in stock BEFORE buying the paper, as the offer is (you guessed it folks) not available in NI!!!

    Just a tip-off to anyone here who is hoping to get this.

    Look on the bright side. Saves me wasting 45p today on a paper that I don't read, and a daily trip to Superdrug all week anyway! It's close to work so I don't mind, but anyway.

    Good luck to all xo

    unfortunately i did this the other way round and bought the paper first :(

    i think i will mail in the vouchers as well, this is a pr disaster for the mirror and also for superdrug as it will pee a lot of people off, i certainly wont be buying the mirror again.

    So who is going to be paying for the postage costs on these items? And it also says, 'you are guaranteed something'. Does that mean if you collect the vouchers all week you only get one item? :eek:

    I had exactly the same problem, and a very curt assistant at that; I do appreciate it is not the stores fault but it is Superdrugs fault, after all they were the ones to set the promotion up, and I see no point in even trying for the rest of the week - I could go into SG, they could have stock but by the time I walked across town to get the paper and back they could have run out!
