    Glad I followed-up on this glitch first thing this morning then ;) And if the order gets cancelled, oh well, nothing lost.

    I was just thinking about making a second order but saw that others have posted the code is no longer working. Oh well, i am grateful i was able to place one order yesterday. Just have to keep telling my self this ;)

    Exactly - no point in people getting in a stress about it if they cancel them - which there are always some which do. To be fair to Evans they are probably going to be losing a fair bit of money over this one, thats one hell of a mistake to make ;)

    I was thinking though that although Im so incredibly grateful to MSE and sites like this posting glitches, if the actual physical direct link is posted in the thread then it makes it even more likely that the sites are going to find out about it quicker. A sudden increase in orders is going to make their IT department have a look at their referrals list, if they see 13,000 people following the same link they will follow the trail back to here and obviously see their error very quickly :o In these instances its best to stay away posting the links to the site and following them, typing the address in directly will mean they can't track it

    Mine is still saying being picked so I think that it was probably rumbled & I won't get it.
    Hopefully some of the earlier orders from here will have got through before it was picked up.
    It's all very exciting, will we, won't we?

    Surely they will have to cancel or show dispatched soon if we paid extra for delivery for tomorrow?

    An hour ago mine was saying picked, just checked again and it's changed to packed so fingers crossed it's going through.
