Online Next Sale is Rubbish!!!

Totally agree, it's all tosh - no decent jeans, no decent tops, nothing in slippers (normally a good buy from Next sales), I have saved myself a lot of cash by not buying anything!

I've not had a VIP slot for the last 2 sales now. Must be out of favour. I have to say, I've not thought much of the Next sales this year (can;t speak for this one until I 'get access')

You can now, It's been available for everyone since 3pm today?

I used to be a big Next fan, have to admit I think they've gone down the pan lately. I find many of the styles too young for the kind of people who shop there but not trendy enough for the ones they're trying to attract. Quality is def. poor, they make M&S a viable alternative for price. It used to be my first resort, these days it's my last.

NO SCAM.......YOU SNOOZE YA LOSE!!!

got vip slot on wed night ordered loads which were in catalogues all half price or less including 24" telly, had knock at door today and some stuff already here, staff get there pick before customers, and they also have a store on site in leicester.... lots already gone by 7.05 pm it started at 7.00 and i mean pages of stuff disappeard, got most of what i wanted and alot out of stock got to wait 2-3 for some stuff but hey!

flip side of the coin is ive missed out on loads from other stores cos greedy sods buy 10 or more at a time and sell on ebay, fair....doubt it but like i said ya snooze ya lose

Why not limit it to one of the same item per person then? Then ebayers can't buy loads of the same thing to sell on. Or make it so you can't order more than 50 things. Next should change their rules a bit. As for getting kids to try things on - try that with a crowd phobic, shop hating, clothes hating autistic child and see what happens. Public meltdowns and panic attacks aren't pretty so I buy his clothes online and try them on him when he's calm. Much easier for me and him. Some of us have good reason for buying things that might not fit and we can't just pop out either to try on. My three year old has swine flu so he can't go out at the moment and I have no babysitter who can handle his illness and my ASD son.

I used to work for Next and some stock is brought in for the sale but a lot is autumn stock. I've ordered stuff I've seen in the current directory not old stuff. I got my VIP slot by agreeing to have a directory - last year after having no slot for a year they told me that's what I needed to do otherwise tough boobs. I don't want a directory but getting one worked.

I am sorry that people miss out due to greed of others but that's how things are these days. Look on here at the people who ruin glitches and bargains by buying hundreds of something. Just greedy and unfair but we can't do anything about it. Some you win and some you lose (and I am usually a massive loser).

Lots was gone by 7om because the slots startd bfore. I had a slot from 6pm?

Its a shame that people feel angry about not getting slots but I have many times not got a slot or missed out on bargains.
