    I asked my courier this several times and she complained she has to wait until the sale is live to everyone so do couriers really get first pick!?

    in the past, staff have had first dibs on sale items, that included couriers (but dont know if they are sub-contracted now?)

    I know that my courier doesn't just deliver for Next but lots of other clothing companies.

    Does anyone know how long the store keep items for if you select delivered to store? I'm presuming that I won't get anything before Saturday and then I'm away. My next door neighbours are great at looking after parcels for me, but that might be going a bit too far. I don't want to have everything sent to store and then they send it back again. Also does anyone know who delivers rugs- is it the Next couriers or others?

    Thanks

    Hi I have been informed from an "insider":

    The VIP for staff and couriers does not start until tomorrow. Nothing from the sale has been sold at sale price yet, so the items going will just be selling at normal price, or the warehouse are doing stock checks.

    Yep - if you only buy 2000 of 1 item, ranged from size 8-16 and 500 in petite, if Preview customers like them and they were a 1 off buy, then that's how. You tend to buy more in core sizes 10/12, and decreasing volumes in the smaller sizes.

    How do you get a preview? NEVER heard of this before :D

  • Do any of you guys know if you are able to make two purchases during your VIP slot? I have been watching some furniture for a while which has gone into the sale, I would love to secure this but also need to buy some clothes....I am happy to pay two lots of delivery of course, but do you know if you can checkout and then shop again?
