    Just to repeat but....

    Got a text message reminding me about my slot.

    Managed to get in about 6:45pm.

    All but 2 items in stock and had in excess of 60 items!! Did it in three seperate batches

    For about 5 minutes the site ran slightly slower around 7pm but beared with it each time and it went through.

    Electricals showed up once sale had started.


    Very pleased.:j:j

    If you order by phone do you get any kind of email confirmation? Not that there would be any reason the guy would go through tons of items and sizes with me only to not put the order through....but I can't help being paranoid...

    No you don't usually get email confirmation - I suppose you could ask them to email to you.

    If you place more than one order, are they likely to drop the additional delivery charges if you phone?
  • I logged in a few minutes to 7pm and placed one order no probs, then the second order about 10-15 mins later was super slow, but I still managed to get everything apart from one item out of stock - mind you, loads of stuff says 2-4 weeks delivery so some of it might not turn up at all! Being the nutter I am, I'll still get up and go to the sale on boxing day just in case there are a few extra bargains!

    Absolute joke, just had 1.5k worth of stuff in basket and it emptied

    actually i doubt it did that was appearing to happen last year but you just had to try going back into your basket a few times.....
  • Does anyone know what time the sales start on Boxing Day is it 7am?
