    I'm ordering a suit, trousers, tops/blouses and a pair of shoes for me and a few bits for the children! I've got guests coming. I don't think they will be here at 5pm, but if they are I am going to have to excuse myself!!!!

    I thought it made you checkout after you put about 80 items in your basket. Did to me last time.
    I've just been back through my list to try to shorten it, as i'm so broke at the moment.

    I've got a list of around 150-200 items...we always wait for the next sales to buy our next year's worth of work clothes so a couple of work suits for me and my busband (try on 5 or so, keep 2 lol), shirts and tops for us both (again try on twice as many as keep!), then pants/socks/vests/shoes for my daughter for the next year. I'm always in between sizes so get both to try just incase...hence about a week after delivery, I always return a load of stuff...best thing about the next sale.
    This is why I get so excited about the next sale - its our main/only real clothes shop for the year!

    Never ever ever sold anything on ebay though - its all for us and only for us!

    All those that have 4.30pm slots seem to be the people that phoned up and got given them.....there was no option to have this slot for the rest of us vip'ers.:confused:

    I never phoned and I got a 4.30pm slot, they were available in the drop down list when I booked my slot.

    ok to be a vip you have to have a next account place regular orders and then it is "random" as to who gets selected, so even if you have an account and all the above particulars theres no guarantee you will get one.

    i wonder if the 4.30 slot was an online courier/staff slot that didn't get filled up and it was the only slot customer services had access to book when the people rang up?
