  • I cant contain my excitment and fears any longer i just had to get it out LOL. :o
    What if its not online?
    What happens if the site crashes or if i go to checkout and it crashes just as i place the order?
    How will i know if the order went thru as i remember last year it took people ages to get there conformation email?
    Or what happens if its out of stock before i can get my order in?:(
    I might get to the store in the morning and there might be nothing on the shelves, or i get to the checkout and relise that after my stressfull late night and early morning start that ive left my credit card at home!!!:o
    I just want it all to be over and done with so i can get on with my life!!!:rotfl:

    ok i feel slightly better after my rant. LOL:beer:

    You go to the store ;)
  • I always see online sales as great for convenience, but if I fail to get everything I want for the 11 children (none of them my own!) that I buy for, I shall either have to go to a store at opening time or look for other bargains at other stores. I have to say last year I got everthing I wanted and no crashing of site etc, but it is looking like the online sale will be much more popular this year based on the number of views for this thread. At least with this sale being quite early if I do not get what I want I have plenty of time to keep searching for those perfect christmas gifts. Good Luck to all, and I hope we all manage to get what we want.
    Just because your paranoid does not mean they are not out to get you ! :rotfl:

    I think this is very true. Much more talk of the sale this year than last year. I almost missed it last year because we were going to Florida this time last year, it was only because we went for some bits for our flight that I found out about it. I can't remember it being mentioned here or on HUKD prior to the sale but I could've been preoccupied with my holiday and may have missed it. Well prepared this year though :j I think :rotfl:

    Just been into my local to have a nosy around and loads of toys being put out. I got this for my DS as it was on my shopping list and didn't want to miss out. Was £17.49, reduced from £34.99 (slightly cheaper online like a lot of things!) HTH.

    this sale is posted all over in 'other' deal forums and they are saying items are going out of stock in peoples saved baskets and that it will only be certain lines that are half price. i can see the site crashing!!! im after zingzilla toys that are in store and not on line:mad:. is it free delivery over a certain amount? some of my items were available to click and collect and some had to be delivered??????
    anyway,good luck everyone!!
