Next sales: please induct me?

[MrsMargoLeadbetter]

To date have kindly been given loads of stuff for my DD but the giver's DD & mine are now a similar size, so need to start buying stuff. Have loved the Next stuff we have been given.

So I wanted to ask you S&Bers how do I start on the next online sales? Think I have read about early access? And any practical tips once the sale is live?

Any intel would be appreciated. TIA.

And obviously a Next sale needs to be on! Just thinking ahead...

You will need an account with Next in order to get a VIP slot / early access to the sale.

I only ever buy a couple of items from the catalogue, so by the time I get sent a VIP slot, most stuff has gone.

I find going into a store more successful. I haven't needed to go for a couple of years, but will probably go for the winter sale.

I'm a seasoned pro at the sale

Ok thanks.

chanie do the physical sales still open v early? Do you know what you are looking for (ie you know what they sell, have identified what you want)? Or do you just buy stuff that will fit/suit you/your DC (if you have them)?

You need to get your elbows sharpened. Last time I went there were people there buying bagfuls, literally throwing anything and everything in. I presumed E bay sellers. I didn't hang about to look, it was chaotic.
