he usually sends me an email but as he sends it to work on a friday and I don't work Fridays I usually miss out

I dunno, but the same thing always happens to me (sale starts 0.03seconds after I click on the 'complete transaction' button. Bugger. There is 20% off the Autumn preview if there's anything in there you fancy ? On 'til 5th July, I think.

Boden Preview, just for you

Lots of people reckon it will be 30th June. I am inclined to agree with them.

Clary · 27/06/2006 16:21

ooooooh that's the end of the week then, how exciting. May even buy some bits to assuage DH

Gillian76 · 27/06/2006 16:24

Am compiling my wishlist as we speak!

I am putting my money on Friday.

Can't give you a date, but I just know it will be the minute I go into labour...(40wks today!)

Well it must be soon, I emailed them and have not had a reply - normally they reply to emails very very quickly. Just hope I get my cardi now!

fimbo, which cardi is it?, i'm just being nosey

Kathy1972 · 28/06/2006 16:30

Well AdelaideS, you can shop between contractions for the first few hours or so, can't you?

Or shop through contractions - it's probably almost as effective as a TENS machine.

Its not there anymore! . It was in the catalogue which I have chucked out.

lucykate · 28/06/2006 16:48

do you mean its not on the web site anymore?, ring or email them and ask if its not. it may have been taken off as the stock might be going into the sale.

I didn't expect it to disappear from the website - and I don't have the catalogue to give them the item number. Guess i'll just have to wait.

Just a few bits and pieces - tried the ballet wrap top at Christmas - it was hideous, horrible fit and overpriced. My dd has some nice things, I don't buy much for ds as he is too hard wearing on his clothes - he gets stuff from Tescos!

Hello Boden fans,
Have asked today if they'll give Mumsnetters a 24-hour advance preview of sale. Fingers crossed eh - will let you know if we get anywhere,

ooh, fantastic idea, Justine. That'll make you very popular.

Aha found it . I looked for it in the wrong section. The colour I want is the blue - it looks nicer in the cat than on the website.

they had hidden it away in jersey. I'd wait till Friday then.

I wonder if Boden HQ realise how much they are discussed on MN and whether they read all our comments...
