    I'm wondering whether I should just go ahead and buy the jeans I'm after as I'm bound to have missed everything by the time I can get online during the sale.

    Does anyone know when they start giving out the VIP slots?

    Thanks

    :j
    They vip invites normally go out on the monday before the sale starts and the slots are usually starting on the wednesday before

    Last year, the Next VIP sale invites went out on the Sunday prior to the sale.

    Just spoken to Next CS, who checked and said a VIP invite had gone out to me. They explained that emails are being sent out so I should check my inbox regularly, but I would assume one could book a slot tomorrow.

    I guess I'm quite lucky, I got a VIP invite for the mid-season sale a few months ago too. I typically place around 2 x £50 non sale orders annually but tend to go a bit wild during the sale and spend at least £1000.

    So my advice is to check your inbox regularly. The Next VIP website is currently closed anyway so it definitely hasn't been activated yet.

    :mad: ive just called customer services to see if ive been selected and was told yes and that they would put me through to book my slot,the number they put me through to then said they were sorry but the information i had been given was incorrect and the vips havent even been selected yet!!!

    worse still,im sure the last lady i spoke to didnt beleive my story!
    i suppose it serves me right for being impatient,so according to this info the vips have not yet been selected so any of you who have been told you have been selected could still be disapointed im afraid

    I used to get a VIP slot for every Next sale, and always bought stuff, but I haven't had one for the last few years. :(

    I remember the same thing happening to quite a few people the last big sale - people were told they'd been selected and they hadn't. My advise? Believe you've got a slot when you actually get the email, otherwise you'll just tie yourself up in knots. :)
  • yes i remember seeing some posts of that nature last year too,i called last year and was told i had one but like you say who knows until you have that email,i just wish they would hurry up and send them though:(
