I placed a few orders a month or two back. I never got a confirmation email. When I checked on my order history it went from processing to cancelled. Hopefully this won't happen to you

Staff in my store were chasing after customers begging them to buy the Soap and Gloryr sets. Funny thing was no one was interested. It happened last year too. Thought they would have learnt. Half the store was fill with the star gift and none seemed to shift. I know a few years back the hat box sold out before lunch time in my store.

The Hat box one a few years ago was a bargain.....I cannot see what the fuss is over this one, nowt in it and more exspensive......No thanks

I've picked one up in store, loads in there stacked hight in a few places around the shop. I did really want the online version this year to keep the box as a makeup box, the in store one isn't quite as nice but it will have to do.

Ahhh, the hat box! £20 on OOTW and 3for2. Them were the days.

After much deliberation I decided against getting this set. When I first saw it I was quite excited but looking at it more I realised I would only use 4 items which if bought would only be about £20 so not worth me getting the set for. It's amazing just how much hype there is around this, I don't think the sets have been all that great in afew years, the hat box set 5 years ago was the best one they ever did and they haven't matched it since. Last year both the Leamington stores had stacks of these left towards the end of the offer week so I don't think they sold all that well in store.

I'm pleased for all who got it, if all the items are used £29 does offer good value for money

Got mine ordered at 6am yesterday, three for my daughters, paid £5.50 for them to be delivered today, had I gone into town (Bedford) I would have had to pay for a taxi back as they are heavy and bulky too, so no difference in cost.

They have just arrived, really happy, they are lovely, I don't usually go for the hype around certain products, but I was in Boots a few weeks back with my youngest daughter (17) and we tried the testers, both she and I loved them, so I did my research on MSE and planned to order them the minute they went on offer as a Star Gift. Had loads of points on my Boots card too, saved over the last couple of years, so that paid for them!

They look great value, lovely products, and the box seems of really good quality with the drawstring bag inside, very satisfied customer here.

It is really irritating to see them all going on ebay, though, at almost the original cost, thats really not fair in my view, there really ought to be a limit on how many people can buy.
