Shoppers trying to access the Boots website are currently being placed in an online queue due to the number of people trying to access the site.
People hoping to shop online at Boots are being met with a message that tells them they have been placed in a virtual queue because the site is so busy with Black Friday shoppers.
The official Boots Black Friday sale started earlier this month and has been dubbed the “biggest ever”. The retailer has slashed prices on more than 22,000 products, with some items discounted by up to 70%.
And it looks like that promise of a good deal has proved too enticing for Boots shoppers who have crashed the website this morning (Tuesday, November 12).
A message on the Boots website said: “Our website is rather busy with Black Friday shoppers searching our very best savings, so you have temporarily been placed in a virtual queue. Don’t worry, our savings are practically at your fingertips. Just give us a few minutes & you will be back with our biggest ever Black Friday!”
Although Black Friday officially falls on November 29, the high-street giant released its early deals. These include ‘better than half price’ savings on premium beauty, fragrance and electrical beauty items both online and in-store.
Shoppers can look forward to discounts on brands such as Clinique, Oral-B, Gucci, YSL, Too Faced and more. All of Boots’ Black Friday offers can be found here, and they are set to run throughout the whole of November, giving shoppers even more time to bag a bargain
Makeup enthusiasts will surely be thrilled to snap up the Too Faced You Are So Jelly Gift Set, which includes a mascara, lip gloss, blush and limited-edition beauty bag, for just £38 instead of £78, saving a whopping £40. The No7 Ultimate Beauty 9 Piece Collection, featuring the popular Protect and Perfect day cream, a mini Future Renew serum, and other top-selling products, can be yours for only £39 instead of £85 when you use the code ‘ULTIMATESAVE’, saving you £46.
