    I had a great time in Edinburgh Princes St today. I arrived just as they were wheeling out the racks of reduced childrens stuff...embroidered t-shirt twin packs for £1, girls school trousers for £2, gorgeous double-layered cotton peasant skirts for £5 etc etc. Crap? Well, I don't see it that way. I don't waste my money on buying the latest trendy stuff five minutes after it's hit the shelves, usually. Two weeks out of date is fine for me, especially at 75% off.

    I got all my orders today - hurrah! I placed them on Christmas afternoon - but I ordered body stuff, and mainly men's jumpers and other accessories, no women's clothes. Couple of kids' clothes, though.

    Really hope everyone else gets theirs. *crosses fingers*

    Just placed an order not sure if it was wise seeing as I'm still waiting for my Chrstmas Day Delivery but the website seemed to be working better as things actually went out of stock whilst I was online so fingers crossed!

    Apparently they do a stock check every 15 mins. So there is only a 15 minute window of misfortune when ordering.

    Just placed two orders online - mainly nightwear, socks, jeans etc for my little boy. Used the £10.00 credit that they kindly gave me for my last disasterous order - lets see what items I get (if any!!!!!!!).

    Own up who had my £1.00 scooby doo pj's and transformers stationery sets before I had chance to check out ...... all's fair in love and bargain hunting.

    Arghhh - 2 emails today from M&S! :mad:

    One order is now below £30 an incurring P&P charges (dropped from £58).

    I am destined not to get the jogging bottoms that have been in and out of my various orders since Christmas Day.

    Luckily I bought some at a great reduction in BHS today - while everyone was picking through the dribs and drabs in my local M&S I took a look in BHS and found some real bargains. Jogging bottoms from £16 to £4.80 and fitness tee shirt from £12 to £3.60.:j
