  • Sale starts on Boxing day - my branch are opening at 6am, the times vary for each branch. We are going to start marking down the items tomorrow - so I guess the VIP invites will be sent sometime this week.
  • mmm so this means not to much drinking late on christmas night or else I wont be able to drive to the shop at 5am!!!!!!

    Also it doesnt always start on a Boxing day, as two years ago we went to Butlins for christmas and we drove home late on Boxing night so I could get up early on 27th to go to the sale still ha ha

    They're normally in the sale, and at the store I go to, they seem to be the things which go first! ;)

    You have to have a Next Directory account, and then apparently the VIP slots are chosen "randomly" - however, I do have my suspicions about that!!

    Next vip slots are given about the 18th.
