    last year the VIP slots were 2 days before the sale started. usually, some kind person posts the link on here, but it only usually works if you are being allocated one!

    the last few times ive had one, my stuff has arrived the day the sale actually started!!

    Hi all

    The last next sale VIP slots were available a couple of days before the actual sale. Lets hope we are all lucky enough to receive one as its well worth it. I find that approx 3 weeks after sale I also get alot of bargains as people usually bulk buy in sale but do return alot of items so worthwhile to keep checking online for those returns.

    And so it begins again......the twice yearly frenzy of tears, tantrums and out and out panic that is the Next sale.;)

    Those with a slot moan about what is available. Those without a slot sulk/ moan/try and get around it and then moan about all the greedy slot holders "buying everything". People like me who inexplicably get a slot for every sale despite never buying anything full price ever are villified by everyone else. Those who get up at 3am to go to the store are either considered mad or devoted to the cause.

    And so on and so on..............:rotfl:


    (Will I be lynched if I say that my kids have that many clothes that I don't think I'm going to bother this year? And more importantly, will anyone believe me? :cool: )

    This did make me chuckle :rotfl: .

    I got my first ever VIP slot for the last mid season sale so I have no idea if I'll get one for the 'proper' sale. As it happens the day the sale starts I'll be finishing my night shift at 6am and guess what's literally over the road from work................NEXT. The sale will probably start at 5am though hope I don't miss anything, lol. Madness!
