but when you've got limited choice sometimes you buy things just because they need new clothes not because you actually like the things that you are buying.

the slogans weren't too bad at first it was just on the odd item, but now they are on nearly every item that they produce if it isn't little monster/geezer then itas next!

we've got a big new one opened in Reading and i went to have a look for some shirts for ds2(cos he looks cute in them, he doesn't need them) and they did have 2 nice linen ones one white with flowers embroidered in white and another white one with squares on, but i saw that they already had pencil amrkings for the labels reducing them to half price for the sdale on saturday!

their sale really pees me off though, when you can't move and people grabbing armfuls of stuff and taking it into corners to sort out. I mean wtf!!!

no unless you know the code of it and then you can do it via quick shop!

BethAndHerBrood · 20/07/2005 13:47

But how are you supposed to know the code if it isn't online??????????????????????

oliveoil - no, did you think you knew me??!!

oliveoil · 20/07/2005 13:48

Yes, I know someone called Beth with 4 boys, hence brood!

vickiyumyum · 20/07/2005 13:48

have you got a next directory? look up the order code in there.

Lucycat · 20/07/2005 13:51

No, not too impressed with the girl's stuff either j&bm!!

I prefer La Redoute or Vertbaudet - I want my dd's to look like little girls - and the whole french style thing I find appealing.

Just bought a mac type coat for dd1 and she looks gorgeous in it! pink (of course) £10 in their sale - bargain!!

BethAndHerBrood · 20/07/2005 13:53

I couldn't find it in the directory. Will everything that has been online be in there? I went to a fairly big next and they didn't have it instore, i'm gonna cry now!!!!!

loulabelle222 · 20/07/2005 13:59

i think sale shopping for next is v v awkward! u can either go to the sales and queue with the million other people or search through the catalogue and do it online. Sometimes it is cheaper still instore.going to cyprus in september ds needs some t-shirts might try and get in there but if its too busy i cant take it!

i think that if its not in the directory then its not online. the woman in the shop told me that the directory has a limited range compared to the shop asd they often get new items in that aren't in the directory.

but what i say is if the directory is so limited why does the store only go up to age 4 in the young boys/girls clothes when the directory goes up to 5 and why do the womens clothes go up to a 22 in the directory and only an 18/20 instore???

this is the bit that has frustarted me the most inrecent times with next is that ds2 is veryt all and has to have 4-5 in tops although still wears 3-4 bottoms, but the shop doesn't do this size and won't order them in so i have to buy from the directory unless i want to buy fromt eh older boys range.

oh and why did they stop it that you can't pay by card over the internet you have to have an account??

vickiyumyum · 20/07/2005 14:29

rant over!

loulabelle222 · 20/07/2005 14:32

to make it bloody hard!!!! i have never ordered online with next.. too much hassle

vickiyumyum, you can pay your bill by credit card when it arrives though.

Strange. You just end up getting credit for longer.
