    It's just taken me 2 hours to make my list from the preview. Despite their being very little in age 8 and even less in age 2-3 so my boys miss out, I've somehow found about loads of things for my depleted wardrobe. I think I can clothe myself from scratch with what I've chosen. I know some will be sold out and others will look horrible on me when they come but I've still gone totally overboard. It's going from a size 14 to a 10-12 that's done it. This diet is costing me an absolute fortune for new clothes. I'd be better off buying a load of cake and fitting into my old ones.

    Anyway I wanted to ask something - there's a set I like instore which is a top and cardi with a belt. I can't find it under tops, knitwear or anything else I can think of. What would I call it in the search bar? Sets doesn't work. I am stumped and need someone else's brain.

    What colours were they?

    I've searched almost the whole of womenswear today (in particular the tops) and don't recall seeing anything like that... are you sure it would be in the sale and it's not a 'new season' one they may have put in store? (don't know if they actually do that though but just a thought)

    P.S. well done on going down in sizes... don't blame you on wanting to go to town on the sale!!

    Hi Lindsey,

    log into your account, I think if you have been selected it comes up straight away when you login, but it may be on the left hand side on your account options.... at the bottom... it will say VIP sale and VIP sale listing.

    HTH
  • Thanks Lexuslass, looks like iv been unlucky, although i could see it as being lucky not spending more money on more clothes my daughter will grown out of in 2 weeks!! :) xx

    TBH, the kids part of the sale is a bit naff, but I am not sure if it's because the searches aren't working properly... I put in 1.5-2 years for youngest DD and it defaults to age 3 (she is the one who needs clothes and although she is 3 in May, I know age 3 would swamp her!!)

    .. I put in 2-3 for DS and it also defaults to 3 but there's not a lot there.. and then I put in 12-13 for eldest DD and it's defaulting to age 16!!

    Have found a couple of tops and a coat for myself that I have been trying to order in the last week which were showing as OOS.. got quite excited and have made them priority on my list ... but I know I'll put them in and they'll still be OOS!! :(

    This is the first biggy sale VIP I have had... and there's all the excitement there that you may just get in with the items you really want (which of course is not likely!)...

    In previous VIP listings, things got added right up until the last minute so keep checking. Lots of sizes were added later also. I remember making my list out very early then realising new things had been added and going through the whole lot again.

    No, it's if you do not add an item to your basket within 20 mins it automatically ends.

    It's 6pm not am when the online sale starts.

    Just put in the item code on the right hand side search option ;)
