    what a pain, another 16 mile round trip later, and half an hour with the SA trying to work out why some items had come up full price and some weren't. After a lot of faffing and complaining between SA's (apparently I was the third person that morning to come back with a pile of stuff that was wrongly charged), she said that the stuff was correctly marked up as per the sheets they were sent last week, but they haven't changed the computer system so some are going through full price, and they can't override the till! so, ended up getting a £27+ refund. When I went back second time, they still hadn't put anything out on shelves. No perfumes at all, no wipes, no nappies etc. It was mainly cold relief, joint care supplements etc. They ended up giving me a couple of gaviscon handy packs for free for the hassle which was nice of them. (the liquid sachets of gaviscon had scanned at £6.45 and the handypacks at £2.79 so needless to say they all were returned!). Hope everyone else has better luck in the shops. :mad::)

    Argh know that feeling! I went back in too, I had 29 items instead of 30 but despite how I worked it out, they told me the tills had taken the higher amount however, I had 3 of the same higher amounts so not sure what happened!

    Hi when in store, ensure you put your shopping in piles of 3 of similar priced items and pay for each 3 seperately, the SA;s won't like it and will turn their noses up but insist , it is the only way you can ensure the discount comes off each time (as didn't for a few of my purchases today) and otherwise it doesn't take off like for like
    eg if you buy 3 items £1 each and 3 items £3 each you will be charged £6 not £4 if you put the whole lot through together

    well guys having slept through the online fiasco (doesn't sound as though i missed much) i shot off to my a few of my locals and got loads of bits mostly for my mother who will be pleased

    nearly all the stores i went to and been to quite a few ;) hadn't even put stock out as late as 11am,

    one SA at crytal peaks in sheffield said all the B1G2F stuff was "accidentally" going throu at the B1G2F price all week and when HO realised rather than fix the tills they were told to remove the stock from the shop floor thats why it was all ebing put out late

    i'm too cream crackered to post my finds but will do after a lie down

    Thanks, I should have thought of this damn it, but I made sure all the £3 items went through together and then all the £1.79 went through too so thought it would be ok

    The website is a nightmare so i decided to head to my local store which is a 5min drive away. There are two opposite eachother and the one is tiny and had rubbish items, but the big one had a few more things and they had perfume gift sets! I was soo excited.:j

    I got 3 Victoria beckham gift sets, 4 David beckham gift sets, 3 sugurbabes gifts and 2 Britney spears gift sets. Came to a total of £88 for 12 sets! The SA was so lovely and when i asked for more sets she brought them all out and let me choose. I did clear the shelf of the sets and left one. :D I noticed they did change some of their stock so will keep checking when i drive past as i fancied getting the old spice set and would love to get the razor blades for OH.

    I did go to another store but that was rubbish a tiny shelf even though they had massive banners promoting it!

    Here are a few pics of my goodies.

    They've not replied to my email so I still don't know if the order went through or not. Nothing in my orders. I can't believe that even now I can't put things in my basket.

    Just been on their website and now they only have 3 pages of b1g2f. Looks like all the best stuff has gone now.
