Thanks all

I only got the Xbox! My PSP was cancelled!:rolleyes: Still really really really pleased with it!

Many thanks for letting me know about the games in Argos - went there yesterday and got Forza 2 and Viva Pianata 9.99 each which I thought was good!

Sam84uk got both the Xbox and the PSP - she has a quicker finger than me!LOL:p:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Well done for getting the xbox and the psp jpedwards!

Reading your posts I am wondering if I should complain as from .com I got a Ruby & Millie brush set that was opened and had no plastic covering on the ends of the brushes. Maybe this is the case and they are not suppose to have them??
Please could someone let me know if they should have them? I don't want to go in all guns blazing, to be told they didn't have them on in the 1st place!

TIA
Charlie

No too sure about the brush sets, but I had the R&M ultimate set and the brushes in there were all covered with a plastic sleeve. I would think they would do this to all their gift set brushes to be honest!:cool:

yes very annoying, i find when i go off of boots site onto another, instead of clicking the next button at the bottom i am heading back up to the top only to find no next page button and end up scrolling back down to the bottom.

Don't scroll
Use "Home" button to get to the top & "End" button to get to the bottom quickly.

HTH.

No it's not just you, it bugs me aswell!! I thought I was just being petty though:D
I am very annoyed as I have ordered the dino valley twice now to have it cancelled both times.....guess what was on .com today:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: .

Win some you lose some I guess:rolleyes:

You poor thing, it's just like a lottery really isn't it. Could definitely do with being sorted out though.

I think with the page thing, they could just have a link at the bottom to go through, it mildy annoyed me at first, but now it really annoys me, I think as you go down the page and put things in the basket and they don't appear, it irritates you and as you're scrolling back up you're thinking shall I bother going to the next page - what's the point

(hitting the 'Home' button on your keyboard is quicker

Thanks for that, I've just tried and it is a lot quicker:beer:

hi

i am very peeved at boots, the stuff that got nicked the one thing i really wanted was the trike, husband managed to speak someone in there "serious complaints dept" and told the lady that this was the only 1 thing that we really wanted and tried to get her to try and hold one if one should be returned etc but she swore blind that boots do not sell returns:rolleyes: that they are sold onto someone else.

boots load of liars if you ask me. they did send me a £10.00 gift card, but i would rather of just had my trike, as this would have been perfect for my little lads birthday.

sorry to go on but it does make me cross.

I presume the above was about some parcels from Boots that got dumped somewhere ? It's well out of order ! We found 5 boxes of things dumped in the back yard - soggy after being rained on. No note through the door or anything !!!:mad: Anyone else had this happen ?

Morning everyone

Just finished feeding my little ones and dressing so thought I would see how you girls had got on.
I am feeling rough today, full of a cold with a mouth ful of ulcers. It is definately the early mornings not enough sleep as I'm not going to bed any earlier either.:rolleyes:
Cant believe it I decide to not set my alarm this morning and wake up at 6am (instead of 7am) with OH and look what I missed. Oh I will have to get up tommorow now but really dont want today to be the last good day and tommorow to be rubbish. Oh decisions decisions.:o
I only started looking online a week ago, wish I had started at the begining. Have placed one order but it's yet to be delivered. Am a bit put off now by the fact people are starting to get damaged items and returns.:eek:

No Niveas in any of my local either, but they did have the £1.70 price tag so hardly surprising. I reckon one of those would have made ym ulcers feel so much better, lol!

Or - think you win some, have emails and phone calls confirming you've won some, then lose them. Repeat process, then...................

I've had this happen several times. Each time I've rung and complained. Sometimes I get extra points but most of the time I just get the standard reply of;

'We'll speak to the courier company about this as it shouldn't happen. We apologise for the inconvenience.'

I've also never got a note through the door to say a parcel has been delivered. One time the courier 're-arranged' my shed for me to put the box from Boots in. Goodness knows why he did that as there was space to just put it on the floor!:mad:

poor you hope you get better soon.

as the the above post - shall not go into too much, but when the boots 75% off sale started i ordered loads of stuff, kodak printer, dr who scooter, super trike plus loads more. i get home and find my back gate wide open plus my metal shed wide open - ok i thought must have had a delivery, sure enough there is a card on the doorstep, sort the kids out and go out to shed only to find nothing there. guess what it had been stolen from my back garden all five parcels:mad: . due to some amtrak idiot delivery driver thinking that this was safe:mad: :mad: :mad: .

anyway police came round they have a witness, took statement asked if i would be willing to go to court:eek: , yes i say but i really dont want to unless i have to. boots refunded me and gave me a £10.00 gift card. what really gets my goat is that only a few weeks before i had ordered some cheap crackers and i had to sign for these. i mean would you leave 5 large boxes in someones unsecure garden. anyway i can now look back and it does not get me so cross but it still bugs when you see the things that were stolen relisted on the boots site but when i go to put in basket they are sold out. you think they could make special compensation for things like this.

sorry to go on hope that was not too long.
