    The orange gruesome twosome aren't on there yet - maybe they won't go online again this year:shocked:

    Boots online still working perfectly well! Should it not be acting up by now? HEHE another question but at least it is a change!
  • Isn't this fun! Every year there are dozens of posts with the same question, and to make things easier for newbies, here's a little tip (but don't tell anyone)! ;)

    Whatever the question, the answer is ...... We don't know! As in:

    What time does the sale start on line?

    Will there be more things in Birmingham/London/Manchester/Leeds/Bournemouth/Scarborough?

    Will it definitely be in store tomorrow?

    Will my store open early?

    Will all gifts sets be included?

    Will my store have more than the neighbouring stores?

    Then, these are usually the definites:

    The site will always crash

    You'll stay up half the night, constantly saying to yourself "just another 10 minutes" then decide it's not worth going to bed and stay up the other half

    At half past 7, other posters will wake up, daisy fresh, and 2 minutes after they log on, the sale will go live

    You absolutely loathe these people

    Things will disappear from your basket

    The 75% discount won't be applied, first time

    You'll get to the check out, and you'll have a message "You have a generic error"

    You'll be pleased if you see the orange couple

    You'll scream if you see the orange couple

    Other people will post, saying that their store was empty and crammed with goodies, and they got so much

    Other people will post, saying the first time they went online, they sailed through and checked out in 5 minutes

    You'll find you have developed an unexplainable hatred for other posters

    Your car won't start/the buses will be cancelled/there are no trains, due to air on the line

    You find yourself trying to explain to your 3 year old that Mummy's crying bitter tears because her online basket is empty and everything is showing as out of stock

    Your 3 year old laughs :rotfl:

    ******************************************

    Please don't worry too much, it will be dreadfully upsetting, but it's only Bootsing. :)

    I got followed around the sale section of Boots today, my a male SA, who was just watching the sale section. He wasn't a security guard, he just watched people in the sale section, I couldn't understand it.

    I'm half expecting him to tell me I can't go in tomorrow, cos I spent too long looking today!!
