  • Urgh! Wasted trip as local store opened two hours earlier than normal so even though I got there at 9.15 (usually opens at 10!) they had got rid of the 25 wrist bands at 8am.

    Sorry to hear that, it does state on the site that the stores opened at 8, very early start!
  • Popped to my local store that had 110 wristbands only 2 left after me!

    Didn't see any smart tops, jeans I liked or sandals very disappointing.

    Queued for 20 minutes though to pay for a couple of vest tops.

    Overall rubbish compared to last year! and only 4 bits.....much better last year...

    To be honest limit of 4 items was enough! Most of it was rubbish.

    Spent ages in the store and could not see any smart trousers or tops. Wanted shoes but seemed they had stacks of size 5s and no 7s or 8s

    Did pick up a couple of nice bags, a jacket and blouse spending £42.50 on my 4 items. Plus bought a small clutch for £5.00 which was incorrectly priced and should have been £8.00 but they honoured it.

    Much better last year to be honest!

    Same here, but I managed it after many refreshes and starting all over again several times! Very gruelling but to be expected I suppose.

    I got to the Chester store at 8:15, plenty of wristbands left :) got 2 pairs of jeans and 4 tops for £35 :)
  • Walked in at 9.10am and was handed a wristband :D (90 at my store). Was moderately busy.

    The sale is pretty good anyway as most things were 50% off or more but wristband made all the difference, with the wristband I saved an additional £47!!

    With the wristband I got:
    £65 heels for £15
    £60 heels for £15
    £45 beaded cardigan for £10
    £27 clutch for £7.50

    Reg sale:
    £35 jeans for £20
    £27 clutch for £15

    A total saving of £176!! Super happy as I bought things I needed/have wanted for ages but not at orig price!
  • Lakeside was getting more bags of clothing, sale items out and the sales assistant said they don't know what they have until they open the nearly seethrough bags!

    Least shopping on a tuesday was a bit of fun!
  • I managed to get a wristband and got a few nice things but was REALLY wanting some jeans which they had very little of but still very happy with what I got :j :beer: Thanks op!!!
