    I say that every year and still end up going-not at a crazy hour tho. I have family over from australia who are desperate to do the sales....think this may be the awakening they are after!!;)

    Gone are the days when I used get up at the crack of dawn and queue for the doors to open at 5am or visiting not one but 4 stores (just incase I missed anything). I just know that if I can stop myself going just this once I will break the cycle :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
  • I found that alot of the stock was sold out in November when I was ordering some clothes for the kids. Certain items sell well other don't and these end up in the sale. I like Next sales as at least everything is 50% off some shops start at 30% and increase week by week and you are not too sure to buy then or wait.

    I used wiat inline at 5am but as the kids have got older they don't go through so many clothes, so being a VIP is ideal for me. I still may sneak in the sales at 7am!!!:rotfl:

    I dont know if this is still the case but i had a 5pm slot and i was after the 42in Panasonic telly for £312.

    When i logged in the telly wasn't their anymore and when i typed in the item number in the description box it didnt come up. I then typed it in the quickshop bit and did my order in there when i typed the item number for the telly again it came up ...

    "
    Item : 446-095-G44
    Description : Panasonic TH-42PX8B HD 42in Plasma TV
    Size : ONE
    Quantity Ordered : 1
    Price : £312.00
    Stock Status : This item will be sent direct from the manufacturer in 3 weeks."

    hope that helps someone

    i had that happen when i checked stock at 4pm using quickshop, but when you went to checkout, it said the item was out of stock

    Lucky you, if you get one in 3wks

    Also does anyone know if items that are on delayed delivery, are actually on back order with the manufacturer, or whether they take a certain number of orders, on the off-chance they get returns after christmas. its just that most items i had on 2-3wks wait last sale, never turned up

    well, finally i got a chance, I had my slot at 5.30! Got all my stuff. Spent over £800! Havent broken the news to my OH yet LOL

    Im actually really surprised as whenever i have ordered in the next sale, they usually have 3/4 of my stuff OOS.
  • hi i have got a vip slot for 1st thing in the morning. I want to order loads and I seem to remember there being people on here before saying to add so many items and add to basket and then add more press add etc etc until finished? Is this correct or do I get logged out when I press 'add to basket'?
