I'm in shock.

Why waste money on such stupid, pointless, overpriced, thoughtless gifts anyway?

You might as well give people a 4-pack of Mars Bars and be done with it.

Thats your opinion and does not help the OP in anyway whatsoever.

Climb down from your ivory tower once in a while and try not to belittle people with the choices they make.

Your post is also no use whatsoever, and does nothing but derail this thread.

Well done on that.

Have to admit I'd be rather disappointed if I received a present that I knew was very old stock

Under the DSRs you have the right to return items within, I believe, 2 weeks. If you can't access your account online take the items into the store along with your invoice and explain your problem there.

Because it can alienate other customers if they allow certain customers to clear the shelves of special offers.

I'm assuming it's an online sale, so how would the other customers know (a) how many of the said item there were for sale, and (b) whether on person bought a dozen or a dozen people bought one?

Coming from the tightest person I've seen on the Internet ever since it's been online since the 90's!

it may derail it but at least I am not belittling the OP for the choices of gifts they make and how they go about trying to get them.

Customer gets a bargain and is likely to return back to the website in future.

Thanks for all the replies & for the link but it isn't boots who have banned me from shopping with them.
It's an online only company, so I am unable to take my returns to the store. I have sent an email to the company because I am unable to access my account. I had a reply with a link to say that a manager will call me sometime next week, with regards as to how I can make my returns.The person who replied said that she can't see why that decision has been concluded and will ask the manager to look at my account again, before telephoning me.

I was in shock when I was informed that my custom wasn't welcome, but I'm over it now. I know money is tight for us, but there is alot of other stores that have regular sales.
I had a look at the link that was posted in this thread, and I can see that the OP purchased mainly sales & glitches, and several quantities, therefore I can see why they perhaps thought that the OP was a trader.
I did purchase a total of 27 items in the sale and only 2 were the same items (2 fathers day presents).
On a completely different topic here but I'm not even sure why people would bother to pay things in the sale, to then sell on Ebay. After Ebay Listing fee's, Final value fee's, Paypal Fee's, Postage & packaging, I can't see how profit can be made.
