    Hi Ladies, I'm after some advice... I've just collected my order which was 3x £1.99 hair products and 3x santuary gift sets. I've been charged £5.93 but Boots only sent the 3x gift sets. Should i call them for a refund on the 3x £1.99 products that were out of stock?

    Please be nice xxx

    I would probably not say anything either although you do already have the free gifts so surely they can hardly take them off you?! Are they noted on the bit of paper you get in the delivery as being there?

    Just managed to order 3 x face masks and got 3 free gifts for £6.01 delivered to store. Very pleased. :)
    Unfortunately the free gift seems to be out of stock again but worth checking on if you are still hoping to order.
    Also collected order of 3x votive candle set and 3x free gifts which came to £20. The candle sets are really nice in a lovely box and smell great! Also think the free gifts are lovely. Will probably pair the candle set and spa escape gift as presents for birthdays or xmas. Might even make up some sanctuary baskets with lots of goodies for friends.
    Thanks again OP. :)

    Just wondered how you got 3 free gifts with only a £6.01 spend:beer: Have i missed the boat now on that one?? Thanks!

    The 3 gifts were marked on the paper enclosed but the 3x £1.99 were marked as out of stock. I'm very pleased they sent the free gifts and at £2 each make lovely presents

    I have to disagree with the other ladies and I would deff complain - whats the worst they will do? I very much doubt they will get you to take the free gifts back for a refund as it was a mistake on their part - not yours... You could also say that you work full time and don't have much time to go into store to return them.

    They should have told you that the product you ordered was OOS in the first place - and if they say oh why did you get 3 gifts, just say I didn't even realise, they just added to my basket automatically.

    My guess is that they will refund you in full or put points onto your advantage card for the inconvenience.
    Just tell them that the small sachets you brought were going in a hamper for mothers day and you were dissapointed they didn't come - my guess is that boots probably only pay £1 to sanctuary for the free gifts sets so I would definitley complain if I was you!
