    i got the email last week on thursday i clicked on link added my account number and its gone through
    the sale is on the 16 th of july definately confirmed.
    Also the staff member have confirmed it will be old stock from last season that will go in the sale which is usually what happens

    but as so many people get vip passes and take wrong advantage like buying in bulks or buying three different sizes of each item or buying for their mates and then returning the stock i think its really unfair to others!!!!!! who genuinely buy soley for themselves and their children or family anyways good luck to all genuine buyers who get a pass

    ......... or buying goods with the sole intention of listing them on eBay and making a profit!

    Likewise I've never had an invite after 14 odd years (I did years of 4am :eek:starts though for the instore sales).............maybe this year will be my lucky year?!!;)

    I do agree there is not much probability of any bargains as such - just clicking through this morning there is so much stock sold out already!

    Oh well - money saved and all that :money: xx

    They told me that you have to have made your payment for the month too so just in case we should all make sure we are up to date before the invites come out. I pay mine earlier in the month than usual around sale time.

    I always pay mine in full as soon as the bill arrives. Sadly I have had to return a lot of items as they have been faulty or bits missing. Next also cocked up my furniture order so they have refunded 8 times to return wrongly made charges. No point in me registering for a catalogue as I won't get a slot :(

    The sale items have been awful recently - i ordered quite a few bits for my 4 kids and sent loads back as there were tag holes or missing items from sets! hope it won't count against me for the vip slot...

    I doubt I'll get one. Haven't ordered anything recently plus I phoned them up to complain when they put my credit limit up from £1000 to £3600 without my permission!! I was furious and warned them that if they ever did that again I report them to the relevant authority. I usually order mainly Brands from the Next sale as there own stuff is pretty shoddy these days.

    Oh well, there are other good sales about at the moment.

    I usually get a slot and hope I get one this time. I find their childrens stuff really good quality and think it's great that everything has 50% off.
