    Some items arrived Saturday (shirt for OH, trousers for me for work). My cushions landed today (5 x at £3 each - lovely!). Waiting for another 20 or so items lol! Will probably land in dribs and drabs over the next 6 weeks if previous sales are anything to go by. Will let you know if I get someone elses sun lounger!!!:eek:

    My slot was 10pm on Wednesday - got 5 of my items today and my Winter Directory !!!

    Everything was as ordered today but guess something will be wrong - I usually get a wrong item or something missing - got a mans suit instead of the ladies one I had ordered last time !!!!

    Heres hoping more arrives tomorrow x :j

    Most of mine's arrived today and as usual I had a problem.......received goods I hadn't ordered instead of something I had ordered! Bang goes my chance to soak up the sun on my new sun lounger (it's now sold out). Aaargh!!!! Happens to me EVERY sale :(


    ditto ... Got first VIP slot, within 3 minutes had ordered TWO SUITS

    On Friday, the Jacket of one and the Trousers of the other turned up

    Yesterday, another Jacket and Trousers turned up. The invoice said thay were the matching pair of the two halves that arrived on Friday .... the reality was somewhat different ... totally different suits, different sizes, different colour etc.

    Rang up and of course they are out of stock of the genuine articles so this summers Next VIP Sale was a complete waste of time for me ... wanted two suits - received NONE


    Plus I paid postage which I will have a right hassle reclaiming,

    Is it me or are Next items not such good quality anymore? My daughter got some T-shirt skirts this morning -- she loves them -- but they are very thin material and of course "made in China". They're fine as only paid £4 in the sale, but seem to be sub Primark quality??? I also got a nightdress -- only £5 and quite pretty -- but again made of a thin, cheap material.

    I have noticed the same thing. However even so, they wash and iron and keep their shape brilliantly. Even though their T-shirt material is thin it is without doubt miles better than the supermarkets and primark. (Trust me I buy a lot of kids clothes!)

    Saying that though womens casual tops are made of the same material and I avoid because they feel cheap. I bet every store in the land has the rails full of them by the end of the sale!

    I got part of my order today too, 3 items, a jumper for little one, a pair of maternity trousers 8 long and 2 pack maternity vests size 14. I never ordered any maternity clothes as I am not pregnant so who knows what will come on the next part of my order!!!!

    Received most of my in stock items yesterday -only 4 outstanding. I have also got a lot on delay which I may just cancel if they don't come through by the weekend.

    I did receive one item not on my order or delivery note - that has gone back today.
