No, but i did get the Joules one it was utterly crap.

What is it like ?

HarrogateMum · 12/05/2011 12:12

I just got the Boden one, not looked at it yet though!

archfiend · 12/05/2011 12:16

I did! Flicked through it then ignored the plea not to recycle it on the back.

Was lots of twee lists and pictures with quotes from various people including Jeremy Clarkson and Jan Moir, bleurgh.

Only thing that did make me smile was a letters page with lots of quotes from people saying why they hate Smile

Apparently I'm one of their bestest friends ever. Can't actually remember the last time I ordered from them though...

archfiend · 12/05/2011 12:17

Oops, bloody phone- why they hate Johnnie!

Last straw for me!

I can't cope with any more catalogues from them and now a magazine book thingy!! Makes me feel guilty to throw an unread, waste of paper away every month. No more, please!!

I have just sent an email begging to be taken off the mailing list. (Apparently they are 'experiencing a high volume of emails at the moment and will reply asap!' Lol)

This was the last straw for me too.

Apparently, going from the content, we are supposed to be charmed by JB's ability to laugh at himself or something. And Boden are cool cos they can cope with people like Rod Liddle hating them.

Bleurgh - so self-satisfied.

without my glasses I could hardly read any of it- all swirly writing, cartoony type stuff and weird little pics.

Please make clothes cheaper and stop wasting paper.

I also got a copy of mini Boden or baby Boden at the same time; as I am just post menopausal and will kill either of my kids if they sprog just yet- far too young- it's not good timing.

YEs, I got one. I have only ordered two things from Boden, just out of curiousity. They both went straight back. I can't stand the tweeness of it all.

LaLaLandLady · 12/05/2011 14:56

Boden gets on my nerves at the moment. Are they really struggling? 49% off Sales.....endless mail shots.....free scarves (for some!) and when one reduction promotion finishes....UP JUMPS ANOTHER ONE!

Go away JB. We know where you are, when WE want YOU!

Oh and let's "up" the quality on knitwear shall we? At THOSE prices!

I'd rather have a voucher, it was mostly a load of rubbish and a bit pretentious imo.
