    Really disappointed :-( First ever VIP slot, so was really excited and didn't manage to get one single thing from my list (of about 100 items!!)

    Oh well - here's hoping I have more luck at 5am on Saturday!

    could someone please tell me as ive already made arrangements for my kids to stay at there grans on friday night so i can go sat morning please help
  • Someone said some stores (e.g. Canary Wharf) aren't open weekends so they are starting tomorrow?! I don't know if each store has it's own start time. Why do they have to open stupidly early? What difference does that make apart from ruining people's Saturday morning?

    Thanks for the replies. My local store is Oxford Street, I live in Camden :s

    So if it wasn't on sale for VIPs it won't be on sale at the weekend?

    I only want one of these 4 suits, does any one know if they were on sale/will be?

    Also, what is the quality of these suits like? What's the difference between tailored fit and slim? I want it to be 'tailored' to my body but I have broad shoulders and a slim waist so think slim fit might look silly and be tight on my arms?! But is tailored fit even slimmer or just nipped at the waist?!

    Sorry for all the questions!

    Next suits are ok. I like fitted suits too and my biggest gripe is that their suits are usually not that fitted.

    For instance, I would take 38 jacket in another brand of suit that really is "contemporary fit" but with Next I'd buy 36 and sometimes that would be just perfect.

    I wouldnt' worry about the difference between Tailored and Slim - buy all you can find and then return what you don't want. "Regular Fit" suits from next are all WAY too big unless you like the baggy look.

    Tailored is not as fitted as Slim - Tailored fit in Next Suits is still a bit on the large side really. As I say - sometimes go for a size smaller in the jacket and it might end up looking totally totally custom made for you.
  • Another thing to remember - come next week, often the bargains get a LOT better on the Next website, as the returns begin to come in.

    You'll find items and sizes reappearing EVERY DAY for the next few weeks at least as people return the sizes that didn't fit or the items they didn't want. Also I think the stuff that doesn't sell in the store sales (which only last a few days or 1 week) end up online in the sale for weeks later.

    Yes it is. Customers who got VIP invite for online sales are already shopping. It defo starts on Saturday in stores. I understand some on Friday if they are not opened on Saturday.

    According to email from Next: Sale starting online
