  • Just rang CS to blag a slot, but no joy. Fingers crossed that we can crack the code!
    November wins...a book, a designer handbag (worth £550 :T) and a game. I am now an addict and thank everyone for taking the time to share and post. :D

    I rang up and managed to get one thank goodness, so feeling lots better now.

    I will still run through the codes again tomorrow though, in case any have become enabled, as I know there are loads of people who still want to order sale stuff.

    I'm rather worried though to be honest. I'm out all day tomorrow and if the code gets cracked, it means that the stuff then goes before those of us who have genuinely got slots get to shop. This happened before, everyone went mad buying thousands of pounds of stuff using the codes and then hen those who had actually been given slots by next went to buy, there was nothing left. All those people moaning about not having a slot say how unfair it is, well I think its unfair for those who have randomly been selected for a bit of good luck to then miss out because there's always someone wanting to screw the system.

    I know this is going to upset some, but I wanted to have my say too.

    I agree. Would be nice to just use my VIP slot without having to stress that most of it is gone

    Same for me :j Really glad you managed to get one too....now, just need to gently break my husband in to the idea of my huge shopping list :rolleyes:

    Those people that are not happy that we may be able to access the sale early....surely if the code comes available and starts working, you can place an order with everyone else? I did this on a previous year - I had a real slot, but actually ordered beforehand using the code. As this meant that (a) the order arrived more quickly and (b) i could use a free delivery code (which you can't do when using a VIP slot).

    HTH.

    That is true & I done that in the summer sale. But it means I have to be glued to the laptop. I sat here for about 3 days in the summer! It kills my social life :rotfl:

    Okay, I have never used the VIP slot before but I take it there is no quick order shop? so you basically have to go through every item and select the ones you want?

    So there is not much point in me making a list is there?

    i asked this earlier, replied with there will be no quickshop, but if you go into the description and type in the cat no it should come up with the item and then you select which size etc.
