    Do none of you ever feel that you're just being used by Boots? :o
  • I just phoned up and the online team said the website will be up and running again in an hour- is it just me or does it work for about 4 minutes every hour and then they turn it off again?

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Is it worth me getting off my but and going to look in my boots? I dont know if they had anything in the 50% off, as I havent been for ages, would it be worth it?
    Debt free since July 2013! Woo hoo! The bank actually laughed when I said I have come in to cancel my overdraft.
  • I got all the way to paypal page to pay and the item went up to full price at checkout!

    The site isn't even trying to load now. It refreshes far too quickly.
  • Yep I noticed that slowly came on at around 6am for me then went straight back off got it going properly though slowly at 9am adding stuff to basket as all favourites bar two back to full price and now booted me out again lol
  • I added the hat box at £12.50,it went upto £40 and said i had missed the offer :mad:

    I got as far as payment page, the bit where the bank authorisation screen should come up, but then it crashed.

    I went to my little rural Boots earlier and got a No7 compact thing reduced from £18 to £4.50 (all they had!), went to pay with points and the till took £18 off my points balance!!! Lucky I always check the till receipt...SA couldnt understand how it happened, but worth keeping an eye on if you pay with points.
    Please God, help me stop spending!
