All the good stuff from the sales is gone already right? Unless you need a neoprene skater dress.

AIBU? is there any point heading to the shops.
Online looks crap already.

Hello, I like your name, I hadn't seen it this year :)

Probably no point unless there is something specific that you are after.

I am struggling to decide whether it is really "normal" clothes that go in the sale and hence bargain time. Or do they bring out their crap in the hope that someone will buy it?
Haven't been btw.

I got some good bargains in HoF today.

talkingnonsense · 26/12/2011 18:47

I got a soap and glory set that I wanted half price in boots.

MrsCampbellBlack · 26/12/2011 18:49

I've bought in the preview sales which is where all the best deals are - couldn't ever be bothered to physically go shopping today or tomorrow.

Nevergarglebrandybutter · 26/12/2011 19:42

i bought a coat from m&s online on christmas eve. glad i did as it was sold out a few hours later. seems the savvy ones have nabbed all the bargains already.

lurking Answer B. Two days before Christmas, Next get lots of deliveries... I'm sure they're not the only ones who get stuff shipped in especially.

Fairytightsonmychristmastree · 26/12/2011 19:45

The best bargains are usually in January when everything is reduced even further and includes the returned unwanted xmas gifts or the sale mania purchases from today and tomorrow.

Only thing is - you have to sift through some hideous crap to find it.

Panzee · 26/12/2011 19:48

Actually I take it back. This is gorgeous and such a bargain

lurkinginthebackground · 26/12/2011 22:57

Hmmmm- Can't decide whether I actually need a new dress or not. All this advertising is swaying my reason.

yellowraincoat · 26/12/2011 23:00

This neoprene skaters dress... I think it sounds fab. Is it an actual dress or did you invent it?

BelaLug0si · 26/12/2011 23:40

Cos I think. There's a neoprene top and skirt in the sale - listed as scuba material.

MillyR · 26/12/2011 23:53

I have to buy boots. The sole is flapping off mine.

yellowraincoat · 27/12/2011 00:12

Thanks BelaLugosi - I found it. Fucking horrible! I was thinking something more slim fitting.

AmberNectarine · 27/12/2011 06:34

Got some bargains in Selfridges yesterday, but it was a scrum. Going to try Harvey Nicks today...

Nevergarglebrandybutter · 27/12/2011 10:43

i think it was a yellow neoprene skirt, i can't remember where i saw it though. looked grim.

Toast, Howies and Brora haven't even started their sales yet - plenty of goodies to come!

faustina · 27/12/2011 15:12
