Subject: The Boden sale starts NOW with up to 50% off

Had I have not been on here yesterday I would have missed out! Grr. AIBU to be annoyed? Bad Mr Boden, very bad!

YABU for conforming to MN stereotype and getting excited aboutn boden!

lol!@porcamiseria

I didnt even know what Boden was until I found MN. Great for the kids (sale prices only). Wouldnt catch me in one of their dodgy 'fun print dresses', though.

Agree with Porcamiseria

I'm pretty sure I found Boden before I found mumsnet. Surly I am able to decide for myself what I can wear?

I still haven't had an email to tell me that the sale is starting, despite having one yesterday telling me that they have dispatched my sale order

As for conforming to MN stereotypes, I have worn Boden for a lot longer than I've been on MN. I can't remember when I first wore it, but I know I used to when DS1 was born in 2002. I've only been on MN since about 2005. Same with Joules, I've been buying their stuff in shows for years.

As an aside... the quality with Boden used to be a lot better. I've still got the odd top that I bought 7 or 8 years ago, I doubt that the current stuff will last that long. Yet the prices are still the same. Doesn't seem to stop me buying though...

Oh, pah! I don't care if I'm a stereotype or not. If I fit into that category, well, so be it.

I bough Boden for myself before mn and before ds, and when he was born I was delighted to find the baby clothes were lovely too.

There are worse stereotypes to be

I certainly bought boden before joining here at the end of last year. The clothes fit me, are good quality and reasonably priced (when bought in the sale.) So shoot me! Besides, no-one says the same thing to all the high-street clones.

On a related note, I just had a card through the door to tell me the Joules sale is on...thanks!

i rang boden on thursday to discuss a return and asked about the sale.she said "some time tommorow,"i decided i would log on and make a note of what i wanted.imagine my surprise when i saw the sale.pure luck .well not for my husband as i bought lots of stuff with his bonus......:]

Still haven't had an email... but I did get the sale brochure through the post today. At least the Joules sale brochure came the day before it started, not two days after!

Re the Boden stereotype: most of the mums at school are Next clones, with a couple of friends who buy Joules, so Boden is something a little bit different.

I got an email at 4:30 on thurs saying that the sale had started and that as one of their best customers could have first pick of the sale (quite good considering i've only spent about £25 pounds in the last 6 months!) Obviously took advantage of this!

I'm not a good customer, I wait for the sales most of the time. I don't like Next, their sales are dire, it's like a jumble sale.

Does anyone know? - I am just shopping on there now, i know you can't get discount on sale items, but whats the code to get free delivery? Thanks very much if you can help!

No free delivery on sale goods.
