    Very rarely I've got a delivery on Christmas eve from the VIP sale 2 days before...last year it was maybe 10 items or so but completely random as to which ones and I think it also depends on whether your courier wants the stuff out of the way or not!!

    also noticed there are LOADS of slots left still which is very unusual, they have them available as early as 6pm tomorrow, now normally all the slots for the 1st 2 days have gone by now

    I reckon there are still loads of slots left as the official invites are only now getting sent out. I received mine just after 12 noon today so if it hadn't been for this site I would only just be booking a slot now (instead of yesterday afternoon). Take into consideration that there may be many people out shopping today with it being the last weekend before Christmas so they might not even realise they have an invite till they check later on.
    OMG I'm becoming obsessed :snow_laug I'm off to the cinema to chill out. :santa2:

    Can anyone please confirm to save me reading back all those pages?!?! :o

    Is it like the last few next sales where you just normally log in to your account and if you have been chosen there should be a VIP sale link on the top right hand side of the page if you know what I mean!?! And you just choose a time there?

    If so I don't have one? :confused:

    Cheers

    I hope there's no problems with the online bookings! I would much rather do it that way, but thought I'd better book a telephone slot just in case. The chap certainly didn't infer that there was a problem with MY booking specifically - in fact he didn't know I had an online slot until I told him? I had email confirmation of the online slot straight after I booked it, and all seems normal with it (except that so many people have easily got the same slot, even when booking much later on) Weird indeed.

    I guess it can't hurt to have them booked to call me anyway, if I can't log in for some reason or the site crashes or behaves strangely at least I've still got a chance of getting something, though I'd much prefer to do it online as I tend to get in a bit of a fluster lol.
  • i just rang next and they said that they dnt have any slots left and that she wouldnt have the facility to book me a slot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i told her people are still booking slots, they are such liars!
