    Maybe other people haven't looked yet, because everyone seems to have been told that they won't be available to book until Sunday?

    I did think maybe some people have had to book later slots due to work committments and that's possibly why there are still 5pm slots available (but not many have said on here that they've booked later slots! LOL)
  • Very strange because the 4.30pm slot seemed to book up in about 5 minutes, and then this one has been open for about six hours. Can't be right??

    Exactly what I was thinking.
  • Everybody on hot deals seems to have got 5pm too! I hope it's not all going to crash or something. Usually the slots fill up really quickly. The 4.30 one did!

    Let's hope everyone on hot deals are the same people posting on here. :D

    The 5 pm slot is still available now if you go into your email.
    Seems very strange that we can all get that slot. Not looking forward to spending ages making my list and then it all going wrong.

  • im inclined to think that a few slots ARE random but i also firmly belief that making sure you have bought something in the last month also helps- lets just says for the past 4 years the only time i did not get an invite was when i did not buy earlier that month...
  • Hi

    I have just called them as i have never had a vip slot and asked if i could have one. They gave the usual 'its randomly selected' to which i said i know people (and i do) that have a slot every time whereas i have never had one. She spoke to a supervisor and still said no, i advised her politely that i understand and i do order regular although not massive amounts. I was polite and kind and she then said she would allocate me a slot!!
    I too have been given monday at 5pm!! Its gonna be busy, ne'mind mad friday, it gonna b MAD MONDAY!!!

    Thanks for the info guys!!

    I've also got the 5pm slot! Hope it doesn't crash, if they've given out too many at that time.
