  • it keeps chucking me out of the waitlist surely all those who clicked to buy have checked out by now

  • Boy, am I glad I didn't pay full price for that liquorice! Three tiny boxes have just arrived...

    It makes you wonder how many they allow in the waitlist. I'm baffled as to how I got it immediately after clicking on waitlist. I did notice the red one kept flashing up join waitlist then going full again. I had my mouse over the 'waitlist full' on the pink one just in case and clicked as soon as it came up - can't have been more than a second. Could it be they refresh the waitlists when someone chucks one back and anyone going on at that moment goes to the top? Couldn't do any harm to try that.
  • Seemed to tell me i was 78th on wait list for pink n white ice watch (which note someone else said earlier!) but just waited and then offered me option to buy 5 mins ago which I have. Hope they don't cancel! Good luck to others - seems mine came thro by being on wait list if any help.
    If only I could stop finding good bargains on this site, I would save a fortune! :rotfl:

    Well Mr Shoe must have been high up on the waitlist as his laptop just said there were 15 minutes to add it to the basket. This was from the product page not the Black Friday listing. Luckily I didn't hide in a strop because he has popped to the Post Office to collect the 4 things I missed yesterday (my GHDs are coming :T) and he would have missed it. So I'm now much happier now I have a watch. I may even get myself ready and start tackling the massive laundry pile I've accrued while staring at Amazon all week seeing as there is nothing else until the PS3 later. I had one in the basket during the week, said it was too much, chucked it back and now son number one has asked for it for Christmas. Typical.
  • i did manage to get a trunki yesterday for my son so well pleased with that
