    Same.

    Looks like it'll be tomorrow when the initial rush has calmed down. I'll be surprised if anyone has got through the password page.

    The deals aren't even that great...

    Bad gateway...
    Internal error 500
    problem loading page

    Such a shame - I bought a steam mop in their last sale and it's brilliant.

    My Vacuum broke yesterday so this was, I thought, a great chance to buy a decent 1 - now I just feel I've wasted half a day

    I too, thought this was about to be a wasted day until I followed a piece of advice from 'cmrule' on the HUKD website. He/she suggested:

    'Open several tabs.

    Hit F5 to refresh.

    When you get to the checkout enter your address manually...don't use the postcode search.'

    I got the Vax Air 3 Upright Vacuum Cleaner for £74.98 including delivery. :j

    Many, many thanks for the original posting and good luck to everyone still trying. :)
