    Tried to order online, but £3.50 delivery, +£3.50 compulsary Next Directory catalogue request (!) takes the bargain out of most sale prices.

    Why don't you have it delivered to your nearest Next store like I did. It's available for 14 days there and you can visit at YOUR convinience rather than waiting for the delivery. The directory isn't compulsary. I e-mailed them once to say I objected to the price and they've sent me directories ever since but never charged me.

    Must agree, this sale wasn't brilliant !!!! A bit like the recent M&S sale.
    We're used to getting bigger and better bargains aren't we ???

    Anyway, have sat in my pjs this morning and ordered some stuff and (reluctantly) paid my £3.50 for a copy of the directory even though I borrow my friend's !! Still better than trailing into store, paying the petrol and fighting with other bargain-hunters !!

    Thanks to this site I'm getting used to not paying full price for things now !!

    Thanks, didn't realise the sale was online, being heavily pregnant and due any day I was going to miss this one out, not now! ;) Found a few good bargins and used the free p&p code found on this site too! :D

    I'm glad a lot of people got on to the internet, unfortunately I don't seem to have been one of them... I clicked on the sale and it came up with 'computer says no' and coughed at me.

    Now it doesn't have the sale logo up either.... never mind... saved me a fortune.

    Ho hum.
    ** Getting back in the swing of saving again.... **

    Trying to find the best deals to save as much as we can..........

    Just got back from my local store (Canterbury) and picked up 4 t-shirts and a skirt for my little girl for £10.00. I got there about 4.00pm and there was still quite alot of kids clothes, more of a range than is in sale on website. (It is a huge new store so does have a large selection of everything)
    Once I've saved it I spend it !!

    I agree - went into High Wycombe branch and it was lame - two shelves 'on offer'. Still cannot get rid of this damn £10 gift voucher!
