    Can I ask those who have placed online orders and collected them, did you get confirmation it was instore? My account says it's been dispatched but apart from confirmation emails I've heard nothing else? Thanks

    I always just take my order confirmation with me to collect once I,be checked my account that its been despatched.

    The confirmation is only triggered once your parcel has been scanned in at the store but it can take a while to come through. I know some of mine have come through over 5 hours after it was scanned in.

    What happens when people collect their orders in their local store? We have a very frosty faced person who actually opens up the order to process through the till as a collection. I think she's just being nosey but maybe that the way all the stores do it. It's a while since I ordered but is there not something on the outside of the box to allow the person to process the sale?

    It is to check that everything that should be in the box is. It stops people coming back later and claiming that things are missing etc. Some stores do it, some don't. I think it depends on where they were trained and if they had an issue with dodgy customers claimed things were missing or wrong item in box.

  • Once the order is in store "dispatched" message will change to "in store for collection". Mine did this today around 3p.m. Going to collect this evening when hubby gets home with car.

    Boots send you an email to let you know it is ready for collection, once scanned into store, and if you gave you mobile number a text also is sent. :)
  • Has anyone got any idea if the big boxes that are down to 50% will drop again to 70%? Thanks x

    Where I pick my orders up from, they give you them in the big cardboard box - even if you don't want it. I would prefer the items in a carrier bag and leave the big packaging behind but I was told they are not allowed to take the items out of the original packaging as it is a fire hazard.

    I always ask for my orders to be taken out of the boxes and put into carrier bags as they are easier to carry - they always do it

    I ordered into store - checked this morning and it had been dispatched - got an email and a text to say they were ready and collected them just after lunch today - great service much better than waiting for delivery on Saturday
