Next VIP Sale

  • thanks for that info - I'll keep a look out for my email. I remember in the summer on your account page when you logged in there was a section saying VIP sale which appeared before the email did so keep looking out for that too!
  • have just spoken to Next and customer services advised slots would be going out on Sunday - don't know if i was just being fobbed off, but it does make sense because the last delivery date for Christmas is showing as Sunday.

    I have been waiting in anticipation for the VIP e-mail which I have been extremely lucky to get in previous years and I nearly had a fit when I just refreshed my e-mails and had got one from Next! Typically!! It was just informing me that the last date and time for christmas delivery is Monday 22nd at 5pm so maybe the VIP slots will be after this - I really hope someone will put me out of my misery so I can stop spending every five minutes checking my e-mails and I can get on with wrapping my kids christmas presents and write some cards!!
    Good luck everyone!!!

    I think that slots going out on Sunday would be correct. The invites were put out on 21st Dec last year and orders could be placed online from 23rd Dec up until noon on 24th Dec so I can't see any reason why it would be different this year. I think I'm going to break with tradition and NOT go to the store this year so I'm hoping for an invite. :rudolf:

    if you didnt get an invite last sale or the one before 90% chance wont get one this year, if youve always had one before theres a 100% chance youll get on again. not luck of the draw at all like they say, their computer systems must be faulty if its meant to be as its the same ppl every yr who do and dont get one
    Wins so far this year: Mum to be bath set, follow me Domino Dog, Vital baby feeding set, Spiderman goody bag, free pack of Kiplings cakes, £15 love to shop voucher, HTC Desire, Olive oil cooking spray, Original Source Strawberry Shower Gel, Garnier skin care hamper, Marc Jacobs fragrance.

  • em, don't give up hope, I have had an account for 4 years, bought mostly from the sales instore ( and when you could crack the code to get in;) ),got the very odd item through the year , however I got my first ever VIP slot at the last mid season sale.
    This is a do-it-yourself test for paranoia: you know you've got it when you can't think of anything that's your fault.
