    Hi All,

    Well i got to the Next in Stafford retail park, I parked up at 5.10 it was busy but not over busy.

    I had a VIP slot for 11pm the 1st night and they had nothing left that i wanted in age 4-5 ect.

    I picked up loads of items, dont really buy anythink for myself from next always for my lil girl. i spent just under £100 and got loads of great things.

    Definatley worth getting up for !!

    To be honest thou at 6.15 the staff were bringing items in from out the back that were really great so i dont think they put all the good stuff out straight away !!


    i forgot that they not long opened a next in stafford, prob too late to get anything good now.

  • Had VIP slot on Wednesday - hardly anything was left for Kids

    Went 2 the Wednesbury store today about 7.30am - had to queue for 2 hours for stuff that wasnt all that. Annoyed cuz hardly any clothes 18-24 months.

    Think I wont bother next year!

    I went to the summer sale and i did not think much of the stuff in the wednesbury store.

    I went to Merry hill today but decided not to go into the next as I have already spent a fortune online with the VIP slot.

  • I didn't even bother with a vip slot this year because last time i'd spent ages windling down what I wanted for the kids and finding thier sizes (a whole 6 items) only to get on an hour into it starting and it all to be gone. People just seem to get greedy and go mad.
  • I missed the VIP slot this year as I was away. To be honest after a visit in store today and a look on the website, I can't say i'm disapointed.

    Was a bit cheesed when I saw shorts in the sale that I bought in the summer sale......
    It's nice to be nutty but's more important to be nice

    Every time I look, the amount of items is decreasing.

    That is because people have not started returnning items yet. Give it until the end of the week, early next week (because of Xmas and NY holidays).

    Next sale is a NIGHTMARE for kids clothes. Never anything decent in the size needed. I usually just give it a miss and buy new season stuff :rolleyes:

    Yep I agree. We over-order in lots of sizes in the VIP slots with the full intention of returning stuff after we have seen the stuff / tried it on

    I'm sure they stated the VIP delivery's would not be received until the 29th. Some people had their order finished before 5pm and therefore managed to get the last day of delivery.

    I really can't see why people are making a fuss about 'not receiving my order' when it clearly stated the 29th.

    Next workers/couriers deserve days off as well as us....


    the 29th is tomorrow and if it hasnt been despatched by today like some posters have mentioned its not going to be here tomorrow is it?
    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.

    Realllly hoping to get some stuff tomorrow.

    If I ring Next in the morning do you think they will be able to tell me if I'll be getting anything delivered? Don't want to stay in waiting for stuff if it hasn't even been dispatched.
