    Oh I can't wait to get all my hampers - so want to know when I will but I will not ring and ask - the more people that do the more time the employees spend away from posting my hampers - 14 dec isn't too far away so I will just be patient

    But it's so hard!
  • :rotfl::rotfl: ha ha - it is getting exciting now - knowing that these lovely hampers will be on their way soon. I am more excited about getting these hampers than I am about christmas.:beer::j:santa2::rudolf::xmastree:
    Heres hoping mine arrive before my birthday on the 9th.
    would love to see piccys of those that have arrived so far if anyone has time to post :beer::smileyhea
    :rotfl:If it weren't for stress I'd have no energy at all. First rule of acting: Whatever happens, look as if it were intended.;)
    Don't follow in my footsteps, I walk into walls:smileyhea When in doubt .............mumble.
    I may look busy, but I'm just confused.:T I smile because i have no idea what's going on.:rotfl:

    I've received my 6 hampers for £55 today and they are lovely.
    The 'just add cheese' baskets are particularly impressive, especially as they are relatively large. The xmas and galaxy ones are small baskets, but nice looking with leather straps. The Xmas hamper had the mince pies box attached to the top with ribbon as there is no room in the basket.

    As others have previously commented, I'm not sure they're worth the original price, but definitely well worth what we've paid for them.

    They are going to make excellent gifts (If I can stop myself from keeping them for myself!)
  • MummyMarshall - would you be able to post up photos of them for the rest of us who are waiting for ours to drool over please:beer::grouphug:

    Hmmm, the mince pies might accidentally fall off mine before I give them out :D

    I'm trying to decide whether I can afford to order the deal that ends tomorrow. My husband says we can't, but I'm thinking that with needing valentines presents in Feb and all those mothers day ones in March it might be worth borrowing the money from someone to get such lovely presents. I might just borrow it anyway, and tell him after christmas :rotfl:

    I even tried typing the URL into this message but it wouldn't even let me do that!

    Sorry

    Hi,

    I ordered the 'Festive Special' at the begining of November. BEFORE placing my order I asked whether I could swap some of the contents of the hampers due to food allergies and it was agreed via email that I could. I was told they would email the contents of the Christmas Hampers to me (2x £50 Hampers) as the contents had not been decided at the time. Well, I have sent 4 emails now, last week and this week and I have had no reply. I'm getting really worried that they will just send out my order forgetting that we had agreed they would substitute items.

    Is anyone else having trouble getting a reply from them?

    Thanks.

    Just out of interest, did anyone else on here order the Festive Special and could they tell me what they got in the 2x £50 Christmas Hampers? Thanks again.

    Lemony - I would call them - they are very helpful but are just inundated? Yours in my opinion is a valid reason to call and chase up

    I have also ordered the Festive Special and emailed them at the start of the week to check delivery date. They got back to me really quickly to say 1st week in December but didnt have an exact date. So to answer your question I have had no problem getting a reply but the reply wasn't exactly what I wanted :rotfl:
    The victims we know so well
    They shine in your eyes
    When they kiss and tell
    Strange places we never see
    But you're always there
    Like a ghost in my dream
