  • Hi - Thanks for the info on the S&G sets. I bought one of these on saturday from a store in Derby but just wanted to warn that when I got it home and checked inside there was an item missing. They still had a lot left on Sunday so swapped it without any problem but it may be worth checking inside if you have bought these and put them aside for Christmas presents.
  • Ooh after the suggestions to check the contents I just opened mine and it has two of the lip balm in it and nothing missing. :) Bonus!
  • Hi All I am deperate for one of the Soap and Glory sets for my dd anyone know of any Stockport/Manchester stores that got stock. Thanks

    Mine arrived tonight (was due tomorrow) Yodel delivery person decided to launch it over the gate, so glad I checked inside (as it is a gift for dd). The body butter was smashed to pieces and had coated the other items. Smells gorgeous, but very messy! After spending 10 mins on hold on the phone I decided to clean it all up and decant what I could save into other containers. Because I knew I would not be able to get a replacement. So please do check inside your boxes as they do not have a stuffing inside:)

    I would still call up customer services as they are usult really good and will maybe compensate you with some points to purchase new body butter in store...

    A couple of years ago a similar thing happened to me and when I called CS they refunded me for the 2 damaged/missing items and what was left only cost me about £5 after the refund

    I just rang boots as my order should have been here by now for the S&G sets. They've "gone missing"...
    I think I have to be the unluckiest person going just now, I also ordered the big city wooden rescue centre from ELC, it also "went missing". Hope the gits that stole them have a nice Christmas, coz you've ruined mine :(
    Sorry rant over x
