Boots 50% Sale...

is it too early to start getting excited about this? :j:j:j

Last year I'm sure it started around lunchtime, and around midday the year before...?

    Yes sorry Christmas EVE!

    I just checked and I didn't order until nearly 4pm last year, but that's because I was having shocking problems with the website, and it was 12.39 the year before!:D

    It is showing my Boots points, so hopefully I can use them online this year!!

    I can't wait either :D

    Last year's order went through at 9:52 am after some battles.

    The website was taken offline for improvements early 2012 but I foresee the same problems this year ;)

    I spent ages on the website last year on Christmas Eve and it crashed about a million times. Well worth it though. Giving some of purchases as this years Christmas gifts.

  • I have to say their website is one of the worst, especially in the sale. Didn't manage to order anything last year, and gave up after 20 minutes or so. I suppose it doesn't help i was trying from my smart phone, as their mobile version is even worse than the desktop one. I don't know what improvements they made, but it's still exactly the same to me!
    Love saving, but not sure I'm doing it right!

    Last year I only managed to order after installing a new browser, Internet explorer could not cope with the Boots website sale!!
