    Could somebody please try and copy & paste the URL link for the preview sale?

    I know this doesn't always work, but worth a try.

    Thanks.
  • Ladies, have you all tried logging into your next account online to see if you can book a slot? I didn't and still haven't received an e-mail but I logged onto my account at 12pm and it said I could book a slot.

    Do you just log in normally and it's there? I've logged in a few times today and can't see anything.Any info on the Isabella furniture would be appreciated.
  • Yeah, I logged in normally, clicked "my account" and it said I could book my slot. The Isabella Ivory Daybed is on there?

    My local next has a couch that I really like. Its £625 down to £399.

    When I asked if it would be reduced further, I was told it would go down to £200 on Saturday if it was still there!!! I tried to haggle it to £350 today but they had none of it :o

    Does the furniture get reduced online also? Presumably it wont be as cheap as the ex-display.

    I wonder if all the Isabella furniture will be there then. Might pop into my local store later.
  • Hi Jimbo, i checked this morning and the pirate bedsets are not going in, will probably be xmas. Boys bedding overall has a small selection that we have in store going in, but we don't have a lot anyway.

    Hi Kriss

    Not all ex-display furniture is in the actual sale. Sometimes it is changed just because it isn't performing very well in a particular store and its easier to sell it off rather than sending it to a new store as it is likely to get damaged in transit.

    If a furniture item is in the sale then usually it will be 50% online and usually sells out at that price. Whether it will be available online is luck of the draw, as not all sofas are pre-made, some are made to order and so you won't get it online.

    Also trying to haggle on the first day is pretty pointless as i have said earlier in this thread that managers have been instructed not to further reduce prices until told by head office. Although if you ask on Friday night about an hour before closing time you might just get a nice friendly manager that wants it gone, instead of having to lug it around the shop to make way for sale clothing.

    Thanks- so is today the first day of the sale?

    Is the furniture likely to drop a few times this week, ahead of Saturday? The problem I have is I need to hire a van... and the two next superstores nearest to me are Falkirk and Edinburgh...

    I dont relish going on Saturday morning... but I could hire a van and gamble that there is bound to be something I like on the friday I guess....

    But you are saying some sofas should appear online at 50% off?
