is this an outlet shop? Or a normal shop?0

NEXT clearance a year round NEXT sale shop.
However, they have goods under the NEXT brand, which have been manufactured purely for sale in the clearance shops and are not available in the 'normal' NEXT stores.
I don't think they are considered outlets, as they are on loads of high streets (such as Oxford).
Beware their use of the red pen- I bought a top with a big red stain on it, from over-enthusiastic red marker penning:mad:If you aim for the moon if you miss at least you will land among the stars!0 -
Don't suppose anyone knows if the next clearance / outlet stores have got their sales on yet? I got some great bargains at the end of the summer, but everything was just reduced to not much below its usual levels a few days agohey there's no money but we couldn't be happier if we tried
£2 coin pot - £92!0 -
You can get the red pen out with nail varnish remover but of course you need to be careful about the type of fabric you use it on. I wouldn't recommend trying it on silk but it's OK on cotton or jeans. Earlier this year I picked up a suit bargain for £15 with a red pen mark and the SA assured me the pen mark would come out with varnish remover and it did!Do not allow the risk of failure to stop you trying!0

The sale was on in the store I went to earlier this week. The items I bought had the full price tag on, the usual Clearance price tag and then another sale price tag on making them very cheap.
I got mainly baby clothes, they didn't have much for boys but I managed a few things including a 2-pack of tops I missed in the online sale at £4 for £1, another 2-pack of hooded tops for £2 and a pair of trousers for £1.0 -

their stock is excess store stock, late returns, really old stock and some faulty stock. i have bought plenty of shoes from there that were on sale like over a year previously at cheaper prices. the stuff in there is just really old or excessive.0 -
You could only buy the Lime range in Clearance stores couldn't you? Although the range has another name now (can't remember what mind!)Property buying/selling timeline - currently into week 21

They do have loads of stock exclusive and especialy made for the Outlets, it has "Special Purchace" on the label, also the "Lime" brand is exclusive to the outlets0 -
I hate our local Next clearance outlet, they only ever have tiny sizes (6) or huge sizes (18+) also they put the wrong sizes on the hangers (eg size 6 on a hanger with a size 12 sticker on). Its like going to a jumble sale, clothes all over the floor, the only bargains i get are for the kids and sometimes they have cheep furniture.0
