I've started to get emails through telling me what they've dispatched - this didn't happen the last sale, I never knew what was going to turn up in what order so looks like they've computerised more of their system!! Useful though as I can see what's coming.

I too got an e-mail last night telling me that my 'reserved items have been despatched and to allow 3-5 days for delivery' but I am assuming that I only got this e-mail because the 5 items in the e-mail were all on a 2-4 week delay when I placed my order on Wednesday. I am assuming that I won't get an e-mail for the rest of my 'in stock' items in my order but I would prefer it if I did cause I am at work all day tomorrow and am dreading all my order turning up when I am out cause my husband will have a fit when he sees it!!
Is your e-mail about 'in stock' items or ones that were on a delay too?
Many thanks in advance...

I have had 1 email saying 3-5 days for a dress that was in stock. Not gonna pay much attention as the computer system is up the spout as we have all experienced. Have to agree with a previous poster though. The delivery times on this sale are shocking. The majority is 2-4 weeks and I had checked out by 6.10 on Wednesday!

I agree!! I checked out at 6.18pm on Wednesday for my first order and at 6.57pm for my second one and I had loads that were on a 2 -4 week delay and they were all things such as beach towels, and summer clothes for my eldest daughter's birthday in 10 days time, my husbands birthday in 14 days time and my other 2 daughters for our holiday on the 4th August!! If they keep to the 2-4 weeks then I will be sending it all back cause it could be arriving after their birthdays and after I get back from my holiday. As my despatch e-mail was about 5 items that were originally on a 2-4 week delay I am now hoping that the rest may arrive before too!! You never know!! I can hope!!!
Hope everyone gets there's early too....

I have ordered a load of stuff tonight, checked out about 30 mins ago and then again 15 mins ago for a second order. Most of mine was in stock at the time or only 2-4 days delivery.
Was pleased I was able to get the suit that I wanted though. Just have to hope it fits... I nearly got it full price but the jacket wasn't quite the right fit... and they didn't have the right size.
How has everyone else done?

I'm going to the sale at my local retail store for 5am in the morning. I've usually go at 10 or 11 but I have work tomorrow so need to go early. Just wondering what I can expect? Is the choice of clothes good and how many people usually queue? Does everyone really go as crazy as I've heard?

Also, How do you get the live chat help on the website?

Happy Bargain Hunting!

It's the thought of hours gettin outta the car park afterwards!!!!

It's a huge carpark so that should be okay, I bet that could be a problem in some of our other local stores though.

If anyone is after a PC theres a widescreen PC bundle been listed this morning. Down from £549 to £320, not sure of the quality but looks good.
Mind you I bet the Next site will crash as soon as it opens today. I've got friends who love Next but have swine flu so are forced to do their shopping online, bet theres a few doing that.

I have just returned from the sale at my local store, must be mad queued since 4.15am!!. I have checked my items and a pair of shorts I bought under code 444-021-065 has come up on the receipt as Navy WW Linen shorts but the pair I have are Brown. I am wondering if this should have been a pack of 2 but only got one? I have tried looking on the website but the code is not recognised. Can anyone help me and clarify this please.
Many thanks
