    The site was fine - worked well for once.

    But then my excel spreadsheet froze with all the codes on I was copying and pasting and would not load up!! :eek:

    Luckily my first list of really wanted Converse items, adidas and kids dresses and suits went through.

    Needless to say I had to turn off the computer and log back on wasting precious minutes :eek:

    Considering I ordered for me, DH, two kids, niece, nephew, brother and mum, not too much damage done though with only 6 out of 75 items being out of stock.

    Just glad its over. Why oh why do we put ourselves through this. :rotfl:

    My slot is at 6am in the morning, at least you don't have to be up at the crack of dawn!

    PPI Party Pooper
    Got everything that I wanted (almost) from a 6.30pm slot!! Some things have a 4 week wait on though (but mostly my things, typically!).

    Got everything needed for the hubby and daughter (including a new bed, although didn't get the mattress, so will have to pay full for that).

    Also, got myself a new laptop as my current one is falling to bits. Spent £650ish in total. :T:eek:

    Did 2 orders, but only got an email confirmation for 1. Showing as off my available balance though so I presume it went through okay!
  • OMG.....spent nearly £2k which is not very MSE at all :o Have to admit I didn't expect to get everything, hence the list, but only had about 8 items OOS from 130 so pretty good!

    Now I've just got to pay it all off before the OH notices :D

    Good luck with getting all your bits x

    What did you buy?

    I wanted bedroom furniture for my little man but there wasn't any so as usual I ordered too many things for me which I'll have to sort through, undies and PJs for the kids and a couple of Tshirts for mr shoe. The only thing I couldn't get was Converse in my size.

    Anyone ordered laptop/netbook/iPad etc in the sale and had a call to say item must be paid in full before it can be sent?
    Only ordered one of the £150 netbooks and had a call saying everyone who ordered any high value items must pay in full regardless of how much credit you have on account?.

    I haven't had my slot yet, but ordered a few pairs of ray bans recently and had a call to do full security check but no request for immediate payment.
    Out of interest have you had your account long?
