More reductions in the Boden Sale including the lovely big button pinnafore dress

[mejon]

They've added more things including the dress I was after for DD at £12 - though I'm in two minds now as I bought the blue and brown spotted t-shirt dress instead when the other wasn't available. May get it for next winter. Also more reductions on things already in the sale.

[EldonAve]

Do you have to pay for postage and returns with sale stuff?

[traceybath]

i just got pj's for both boys which weren't in stock first day of the sale - most bizarre

[27]

Returns arent free on same things.

[hippipotami]

Woohoo!! Am soooo pleased. Had my heart set on the blue big spot fleece lined anorak for dd, as well as the blue big spot big button pinni and the pink flower lollypop big button pinni. None of this was in the sale last month, adn I had stopped even checking the boden sale site but thanks to the heads up on here have managed to get all 3.
Dh not very happy as I also spent £40 last month in the boden sale on other dresses for dd (she is a dress monster and a trouser refusenik)

My only worry, email from boden to confirm order said that by the time they come to pick the order some items may be out of stock?
I really really really want teh anorak (and so does dd), so fingers crossed.

[hippipotami]

Aw no, the jacket now out of stock on their website in dd's size. I really hope they have allocated one to my order [fret]

[mejon]

Bugger - hadn't spotted the jacket reduced to £11 - the blue one is lovely isn't it? DD is still wearing last winter's red and pink one in 12-18 months (she's 28 months now) so do I risk getting a 2-3 years one for this/next autumn/winter or should I go for a 3-4 in the pink? Same with the big button dress too - she is small for her age so I'm wondering if the 2-3 will be OK or should I risk getting the bigger one?

[MadameCastafiore]

Oredered loads of stuff for £100 this morning - 3 pairs of jeans for DD, 4 tops for DS, a red cord coat and a pair of jeans for me.

Wish they hadn;t bloody sent me the more reductions email - I just can't help myself!

[wools]

Mejon - I had the same problem with those items. My dd is also wearing last years red/pink coat in 12-18 months (she is also small) and she has the blue spotty one ready and waiting in aged 2-3 (which stupidly I had paid full price for). When I saw the price today though, I couldnt resist and I've bought her the brown and pink in aged 3-4 as well. I've also ordered the big button dress (both colours) aged 3-4. I have spent so much money in Boden this year.

[mejon]

Wools - I think I'll risk the 2-3 coat and try the 3-4 dress. If the dress looks huge I'll send it back and get a smaller one. Incidentally, I ordered some extra stuff last week and was most annoyed to see they'd been discounted again today so I called them up. It was only a reduction of £3.50 in total but they've credited my account with £5.00.

[wools]

Good idea Mejon, think the 2-3 coat will definately still fit next year. I've bought the dresses deliberately big for next year/year after as she has so many clothes at the moment. Good for you getting some credit back...I could do with some of that right now.

[hippipotami]

I might do that mejon, I ordered some stuff on the 31st, which are now reduced by £4....
Do you think they will laugh in my face?

[mejon]

Poo! The blue spotted coat in 2-3 had gone by the time I got round to ordering just now so I've got the pink and grey spotted one in 3-4 so it'll definitely fit next winter (and probably the one after too!). The dress was still there so I've got that one as well. Grandad's Chrismas cheque has come in handy after all .

[ssd]

I knew folk who wear Boden would say poo

[hoxtonchick]

i have got dd one of the duffle coats. she chose grey which surprised me a little as she's normally mad for pink. but she wanted a grey coat like me apparently. bless. and the lining is pink....

[mejon]

How very dare you . I was trying to be polite!

[Clary]

Pah! Lots of trews for DS1 when I glanced at work today...

Logged on tonight to buy in earnest to find they are all now sold out!

You lot!!!

lol at poo.

[hippipotami]

Am liking the poo!
Clary - 'twas not me.... honest... I have not managed to buy anything for ds this year. He needs size 11-12 and there was absolutely nothing left in his size last month, nothing this month either.... sob....

Teh blue spotty coat is lovely, I just hope I did actually get one.... It went from in stock to sold out within minutes of me placing my order, so I hope I have got one...

I like the grey duffle (with teh pink lining) but dd's school uniform is predominantly grey so we wanted a splash of colour....
Never mind, I may save up adn buy her one next year...

Right, first day back to school for my urchins today, so need to get upstairs to see how the getting dressed is going... (and get dressed myself )

[blueshoes]

hippiotami, there is hope. I put a jacket in my shopping basket, paid about an hour later. When I went back to the site, that size was gone. I too fretted whether I would be pipped at the warehouse. But I got it. Might have been the last one. Fingers crossed.

[hippipotami]

Thanks blueshoes, will keep everything crossed

[mejon]

hippipotami - sorry I didn't see your message last night about asking for a refund. Nothing ventured nothing gained I think. I wasn't going to bother really as it was only £3.50 but they were very accommodating on the phone and actually increased the credit. Definitely worth a try.

[hippipotami]

Thanks, will ring them in a mo.... (always worry about doing things like that)

[hippipotami]

Yippee, just had an email confirming despatch of my items, both dresses, the t-shirt adn the blue fleece lined anorak Dd will be delighted (and so am I at those prices

[unfitmother]

I got the duffle coat in my basket, went to get my credit card and found it had disapperared as they had sold out!

[hippipotami]

I hate that, that happened to me 4 times this time round. Especially on long sleeve tops for my ds.

I have learnt you really need to be quick at a boden sale
