  • Yeah aparently the website goes off every tuesday eve at midnight to update offers and comes back about 3am. But if they were to update tonight ready for 75% to go live tomorrow then that would be unusual as they usually do it on a tuesday eve.

    Fingers crossed for wednesday!

    Hi Storm

    I was there last Wednesday (when we originally thought the sale was going to be) and rather disappointing stock levels I'm afraid. Not as much as last year, I would say about two thirds as much. Depend what you're after, of course, but I couldn't see any Soap & Glory, or Sanctuary.

    I've queued up outside for the past three years, but this time I'm actually considering not going! :eek:

    Thanks Sue,

    Are there any other stores in Bristol that might be better?

    I'm with you on Wednesday as the Big Day (unless they delay or cancel, but I'm not sure I'd care at this point, lol).

    If the cheesy couple appear shortly, surely that will give us a sign? Didn't they appear around midnight before?
