  • I have placed three orders at Boots early on the day that the sale started. I have received one order and another is showing as despatched by a different courier - but the first order i placed is still only showing as being processed. Anybody else had this? Bit worried as it contains the things that i really wanted.

    Yes, same here. Haven't received any yet but had 3 out of 4 despatch emails (all yesterday, there'll be no room to move for all the boxes :eek:), but the 2nd order I placed is still showing as processing :confused:
  • just had another parcel delivered containing one baby mat gym thing and the packaging stinks of cigarettes, haven't actually opened the item yet to see if that smells too. Not sure what to do, feel like complaining but then if it was the delivery driver he might deliver here again and know i complained.

    Does anyone from the North of England know when the Liverpool instore 75% sales starts? City centre or Speke retail park. I am one of the older bootsers ?(over 60) and have mobility problems.

    So If I make it there on Monday and it's not on, I deffo will not make it Tue. So would really appreciate it if anyone local has any insider info. :D I have points to spend, so need to do it instore. Depending on you young :j uns.
    I have been bootsing for over 40 years, even before it was called Boots. It was known as Timothy Whites and Taylor. Then "Boots the cash chemist",
    then just simply Boots.:T :T

    icon1.gifMy Boots.com order STOLEN from shed!!!!!
    Well this year has gotten off to a bad start with dad and husband and 18 month old son all in hospital within a few weeks and now i get home to discover that my boots order has been stolen from my back garden shed. i dont know what to do cry or let rip.

    i came home at 4.45pm to find that my gate was open and my shed was also open, ok i thought the postie must have left something. take the kids in and find amtrax note that items had been left in shed. go out to shed to find no items - i am soooooooo upset because most of these items were to be for my sons 2nd birthday on the 1st of march and my mums birthday on the 6th of feb plus other birthday pressies for various friends etc. well to cut a long story short husband phoned amtrax who said "goods were sent by boots cheap free delivery so do not have to be signed for and only have to be left in a safe place, WELL OBVIOUSLY IT WAS NOT SAFE AS SOMEONE HAS STOLEN THEM. then phone boots who were of no use what so ever and told me that they would send out an items missing form.

    by this time i am in tears decide to calm my nerves and go for a quick puff (trying to give up but when things like this happen it just gets too much), whilst in back garden there is a knock on the door and it is a community police officer, luckily a very observant neighbour noticed someone running into the garden taking parcels and shoving into car boot and driving off damn quick, they took the registration no and apparently they are common burgulars.

    ALL I WANT IS MY STUFF AS IT WAS FOR MY LITTLE BOYS BIRTHDAY.

    sorry to vent but i have to let my steam off somewhere.

    i just cant belive it, my dad is in hospital at the mo, he had operation yesterday and was very poorly last night. so i could just do without this at the moment and feel like staying in bed all through 2008.

    put this on the vent board as well but just wanted to warn people.

    dont think husband really understands, i am soooo upset as the order that went missing had to be the one i really wanted and all the pressies for my little boys.

    if only i could get my hands on these scumbags i would tell them how it is. i have never had any thing like this happen to me before and i can understand why people get so upset, dh has spoken to police and there might be a very very small light at the end of the tunnel. but even if we should get some of it back, it wont probably see it until my little one is 3.

    i must go and thank my very vigilant neighbour.

    to say boots have been of no help is not so fair, although if i could have paid a couple of more pounds for signed del i would have done.

    they have refunded some of my money through paypal, and have said if goods turn up it is free of charge - i just want the things i ordered as it would have saved me so much more hastle than having to go shopping for pressies.
    sorry to vent. hope you dont mind.
