Right I am confused I thought the Boot Beauty Boutique was opening on the 27th not today so how will they work out the first 50 to get goody bags if that makes sense. I am also annoyed coz everything seems to be out of stock.

I also thought it was the 27th it started so was amazed when i got up yesterday morning an it was on. You would think they would have had plenty stock in too.
CS dont know anything about the free Goodie bag so anyone who still has a copy of the email should keep a hold of it if you put an order in yesterday.
Can you proof what time you placed your order?

EDITED - I will be bale to give an update soon on Goodie bags as my mums order is due for delivery today so i will open it and have a look.

CS told me yesterday that the items showing as out of stock weren't really - it was the result of the mailing being sent out before the site was ready, and that everything would be in stock this morning. Yeah, right. I'll report back when they return today's phone call.

Update (sorry, edit still won't work for me)

CS say that everything is in stock, just not showing on the site, and 'over the course of the day' it will all start to show as in stock.

2 or 3 people are apparently 'being shot' because of the shambles.

I do love boots though , i hate them sometimes too
I don't like the older SAs, they allways seem to get funny when i'm buying bargains, take for instance when i asked how much the purfume with the big red stickers on were ??
Me "can you tell me how much they are please?"
SA "well it says £10 on it so how much do you think it is?" (sarcastically)
Me " a quid maybe"
SA "and what gives you the impression it £1?"
Me "scan it and see, im phsycic you see!!"
SA scans it and it comes up as £1 :rotfl: looks like this :eek: then says
"ummmm i think that is wrong"
Me "i don't, can i have them all please" (pointing to all with red stickers!)
SA " i'll just get my manager"
Manager comes over says yep thats right, give the girl what she wants!!! then walks away.
SA "it's not very fair that the staff havn't got any of these you know"
Me "what do i care love, could you put them in my basket,thanks"
I then walk away with a big cheesy grin, leaving crabby SA stood gossiping and scanning others that are not reduced!!!! love it :T

what perfume was this?

I had not heard of any of the brands either although my mum said the Nuxe is suppose to be really good. We bought Bliss Deep clean toner pads, Avene concealer, Skin Doctors Fade Away, Cake Plane Friendly Travel Kit (for my free trip to Paris) and Urban retreat Eye Primer.

Have to say the picture on the box for the Fade away looks really good. Its a lotion so not like a foundation and looks good at covering pigmentation.

i cant justify to spend £50.00 for getting 1500 points for BB
