in store or online?

Wow.....I guess the fair thing to do is not vote until closer to the sale starting and give you chance to actually update this thread on what deals you've found.

Right now this is not a deal I can vote on.

Thanks for info. The sale starts online and instore same day in the morning, but VIP sale starts online couple of days earlier. You can access VIP sale only by special email invitation from Next

Voted hot for the heads up.

Heat...remind us again in a few days.

Thanks for the info good to know when it starts can plan ahead x

Thanks, anyone know when cop invites are likely to be sent out ?

*vip (blooming auto correct)

Yep heat for the heads up cos was only wondering last night when it would be starting and now I know so thanks!

Excellent, thank you for this.... I'm returning back to the UK from Saudi and have to kit the house out again! Hopefully there are some bargains to be had... Wonder when the VIP emails will be sent out.

Brill thank you I've got loads of vouchers from Christmas to spend :smiley: voted hot!

I work at next but never buy anything even during the sales. Our store is so small that our first pick is pointless.

Stand by for all our overseas friends with full rails of clothes on the floor while they decide what they want as staff stand by to watch.Stopped shopping at next for men's clothes a few years back due to boring cheaply made products .Always amazed how they manage to announce huge profits when other than sales days the shop are empty.

Thank you for heads up :smiley:

Good for kids clothes, not so good for grown ups

Don't get why everyone loves the Next sale. Average clothes at a bit of a discount.

And I wont even say what I think of the losers who queue for it at 5am!!

I'm still paying for the stuff I got from the last sale

does this mean that there won't be a summer sale?

How do i get a vip email do i have to join the mailing list?

Any idea when the vip slots will be out?

has anyone had a vip invite yet?

You have to make sure that you have checked the box to receive email notifications

do they ever discount furniture? like the look of a sofa.

what's vip

Seriously, all you need to do is go into your account settings and make sure that you have ticked the box that allows Next to send you email notifications and you will get the invite email.

Not necessarily. Yes you have to do this but in addition your account must fulfil eligibility criteria- Next never explain exactly what this is but it is thought that it includes receiving (and paying for) the hard copy directories and not returning more than a certain % of purchases.

Just wanted to clarify in case people thought they could change their account settings and be guaranteed a vip invite.

As for the sales, Next do 4 a year -2 large ones at the end of July and Boxing Day which normally start in store at 5am, plus two smaller mid season ones in March and September which start on a Saturday at 7am in stores. It's the same pattern every year. Vip invitations are shown on accounts and sent by email normally the Monday or Tuesday prior to a Saturday start for the in store sale and you can 'book' your sale slot which is normally an hour (but sometimes longer) which allows you to order sale items prior to the official online start that Saturday. Once you've booked your sale slot you can browse the preview to see what you may want to buy once your slot is live. Slots normally start at 5pm on the Wednesday.

Anyone know when the VIP slots are out?

@yonyon actually they do. The criteria is on their website. First one is you must have ordered something from the current catalogue then something to do with the amount of stuff you return.

Hot from me by the way!

Its a mid season sale. The big sales in are July and Boxing Day.

Even if you qualify for all the criteria, you're not always guaranteed a slot. They only select some customers and it's random.

thank you! I didn't have a clue. hot!!

anyone got vip slot till now?

Nothing yet but fingers crossed as I'm going on holidays in less than two weeks and need new clothes :smiley:

I've just booked a slot Thursday 17th 5pm. I haven't received an email yet, I just logged on & the link was there.

just got my slot too, same way

just got my VIP slot same way. was waiting for an email so I'm so glad I read this thread now :smiley:

Yay I got a slot no email yet though just logged in and the link was there got Thursday at 5pm :laughing:

thanks. booked for 17th march at 2:00

i dont know how come its 2 for me. is it 2pm?

ohh sorry its 5pm

It's Thursday 5pm earliest?

I couldn't get 5pm
Got 6pm
I'm thinking everything will be sold out by then

Does the preview sale show everything or just a selection?

Anyone who's got a VIP slot could you please see during your slot if the girls "sweet pea" range is on sale or not. I'll be very thankful :innocent:

really annoyed I've been checking my emails all week waiting for this and no emails sent. Just been online & got 9pm slot Thursday....complete waste of time as there will be naff all left :disappointed:

how do you see preview of what goes in sale

Great help thanks a lot...soooo going to hunt down that pink dress, can't justify full price though x

Just wondering, does anyone know what time the sale starts online on the 19th? Thanks a lot :smiley:

Can anybody tell me what else there is on sale for the girls?

Just shopped the VIP sale and got everything I wanted even though it was just a small sale. :smile:

Is the sale looking any good for little boys clothes? Hoping to get some jeans/trousers :smiley:

Thank you

Thank you will get to store for 7am :-)

Is anyone able to tell me if this shirt is on sale? Thanks!! http://www.next.co.uk/x57762s2#369903

Thanks!

Are there many sleepsuits or bodysuits for babies in the sale preview? Trying to decide if it's worth braving going instore or not hmm!

Great thanks :smiley:

Disappointing sale. I received one of the first VIP slots and spent the princely sum of £16 on a bathroom bin. I've not bought much in the way of clothing for a while now, the quality is very poor compared to what it used to be.

I did get a fabulous leather sofa for around £600 in the Christmas sale for one of my rental properties, first time I've bought a sofa from Next, I hope it lasts.

I went to two stores yesterday, I was at the first for 7am and the second around 7.45am. Didn't manage to get any boys jeans or trousers at all. Really disappointing. Got some tops and a coat for my littl boy, but no jeans (the reason for my visit).

£20 off £50 new accounts only enter code on registration page, get extra £20 off sale items. 2 accounts per household. Valid till july
