There are two types
These are long & more generous

These are a little shorter & closer fitting

I got the ribbed above in chocolate, I got my DD (brought someone with me) one of the longer plain ones in beige.

went to my local store got there about 9.45am - no queue but signs directing you to the xmas shop area where there was a hustle of people gathered around a 4 arm stand, there was prob about 30-40 cardigans left. I managed to find 2 in my size in chocolate in different designs so asked if i could go and try them on which i did, both fitted very well so i hid one on a rail, went to pay for the other, then went back and picked up the one i'd hid! I put the one i'd bought under my coat and went downstairs and paid for the 2nd one (they were being very strict about 1 per customer but nobody body searched me :-)) - so i got two - love them. They said they had about enough left for another 15 mins of customers. My sister rang me 20 mins ago and asked if i was still in town to get her one - too late!A home is not a home ..... without a dog0

my OH only just managed to get to Wrexham for me but only size 8 & 10 left........oh well.
thks OPSaying Thank You doesn't cost anything :beer:0 -
Managed to get one at Brahead, about 50 people queuing at 9.30 but moved quickly enough0

There is also this one which is different again (drawstring detail on the back)- in purple only I think. It's the one I got!

I think from hubby's description that's the one he has got me, which is lovely, so thank you, quite relieved now lol
From what he said White Rose Leeds store was still busy with plenty of cardigans left, that was about 30 minutes ago.0 -
Mine didn't get stamped. I wanted a red one but they didn't have the right size. I'm wondering now if I'll be able to swap mine for a red one in the right size without the receipt, seeing as there's no stamp...0

I managed to get two of these thanks to my dad, who paid for one whilst I paid for the other!
Got a beige angora one and a black ribbed one. They are really nice - £70 worth of goods for just £20. Bargain! :money:
They were being very strict about allocation. There were a variety of sizes, styles and colours on a stand and then you had to ask for the particular one you wanted.0 -
sigh - it isnt look good for those of us at work, dont think there will be any left come 530-6pm!!0
