So I've just ordered some shoes from Office, will they arrive by

[andlipsticktoo]

Saturday do you think?

Or am I being very optimistic??

I would say they will be with you on Friday.

OOh goody! I want to wear them on Saturday night. I was a bit worried as there was no 'next day delivery' option at the checkout.

I have always found Office to deliver really quickly. It is only Tuesday today isn't it? Then assuming postie strikes don't hold things up, you should be fine to get them by Friday.

Oh no, do you think they use Royal Mail delivery? Surely with the back log that will slow everything down.

I only ordered them tonight so technically it will count as ordering on Wed morning wont it?

Reading their Ts&Cs, looks like you should be ok:

Unfortunately we are unable to offer next day delivery.

Honestly, I have ordered loads from Office and have never had a problem - the shoes usually arrive within a couple of days.

OK so they have 4 whole days. Fingers crossed.Thanks for the help!

Bother! They haven't arrived.

Got to go to town in half an hour - bet they try to deliver them then.

Looks like I'll be wearing old shoes for my b day party tonight!
