DS has brand of dummies from Boots and they seem to have stopped selling them (realise this is probably good time to stop dummy habit but too chicken to do it yet...)needless to say that we only have one and it's in pretty poor condition and we keep mislaying it (yuck I know)

Anyway, if anyone, anywhere has some of these unopened or has seen them in their local boots I'd be eternally grateful and pay postage etc etc
favourite noo noos

they have a 'shaped' teat which kind of points upwards slightly not the traditional cherry shape

I'll have a look in our surburban Boots tomorrow - judging by what's on their shelves they never manage to shift anything, so fingers crossed!

I'll have a look in our local Boots too for you, katierocket (you know you could end up with 100's of the things!)

Tried 3 Oxford branches and no joy, Katierocket. Sorry Have you tried calling head office to find out if they are actually discontinuing them, or if there's just a temporary stock/prodcution problem?

thanks so much carla - I'm beginning to think maybe they have discontinued them. Will call HQ and ask. had manic search for about half an hour this morning to try and find the one and only noo-noo in the house which had been lost somewhere. Grrrr....

Katiesrocket I've found some Popped into one of my local small Boots and there they were on the shelf - I have bought two packs (four dummies) - one pack is mint green and pale blue and one pack is the lime and blue ones - basically the two colours as on the website. They were the last ones they had.
Do you want to contact me via the site to sort out me getting them to you. Cheers.
If you no longer want them don't worry - I have the receipt and can return them.

Jaybee · 04/02/2004 10:33

I have just taken them to the post room so they should be with you either tomorrow or Friday.

Jaybee · 05/02/2004 10:03

Katierocket - have they arrived?

Hulababy · 05/02/2004 11:12

Have you got enough now? I saw some in Boots yesterday but couldn't be sure they were the right ones. Checked today and they were. They had plenty in both colours.

Jaybee · 06/02/2004 09:28

Katierocket - I received your cheque - thanks. Have you received the 'noo noos'?

hulababy - thanks so much. I have enough now thanks you. Jaybee kindly sent me some and then (sods law) I also found 2 yesterday. I have squirreled these away for later date so we don't get in this mess again. I could, of course, take it off him altogether......err...no...too much like hard work
