@whiskyremorse ooh do come back and show us!

whiskyremorse · 01/02/2020 22:01

I will do a list tomorrow as after 8 hours driving and 4 hours Hushing, I am in bed with a glass of wine lol

Brie there were quite a few Amie joggers on Thursday, mostly the stripey ones, I wasn’t looking for them so not paying attention.

Whiskey what’s the extra discount on the last day?

Who gets invited to the first day? Is that the wednesday pm?

ilovebrie8 · 02/02/2020 10:40

Couldn’t find any yesterday, it was so muddled to find anything... hit or miss.
I spoke to a couple if the staff they said it was by invitation only on the Wednesday...she said lot of good trainers, boots, bags, coats etc. She said she had a big bag of stuff put aside. So I guess the invite onlys and the staff get first dubs then it’s open to the public. I think it’s okay but not as good as previous years...damaged items and a lot of old stuff which I wouldn’t take for free ....just my view based on speaking to a number of ladies when we were trying to try stuff on in a corner ...

I had an invite for the Wednesday 1-6pm preview (couldn’t go as I was at work) so I guess it’s Hush Friends.

whiskyremorse · 02/02/2020 13:05

I got 17 items for £160. 4 bottoms, 2 shirts, one jumpsuit, 4 dresses, 4 tees and 2 pairs of shoes.
In the last hour, everything was discounted as you can tell by what I got for my money. We sat at the back with our bags waiting for the discount announcement. I don't know about there being nothing there on the last day but it did take time and commitment to find it amongst the dross!

Just added up the full price cost and it would have been £977.50. I realise that a few of these items are in the sale but even so... Smile

whiskyremorse · 02/02/2020 14:00

I'm selling the Dolly Jumpsuit Size 10 as it was an impulse buy that I didn't try on. Let me know if anyone is interested.

ilovebrie8 · 02/02/2020 14:43

Wow @whiskyremorse that’s fantastic! You got the Charlene twist dress too Smile it’s a winner! Love your trainers...next time I might time it so I can stay to the end for the discount to start. Great stuff you have there

Ellapaella · 02/02/2020 15:28

@whiskyremorse I have those white trainers, I have the ones with the stripes and the plain white ones and they were a main staple of my wardrobe in the summer - great buy.
You had a very successful trip by the looks of it!

@ilovebrie snap on the dress, it was a bargain eh. I wonder where all those red bird print Kensington came from. My daughter got one in last years sample sale and it is was few seasons ago they had that print. I wonder if they found a box of them at the back of their storeroom!

whiskyremorse · 02/02/2020 15:45

@ella I'm pleased about getting the rainbow pumps, I've seen pictures of you wearing them and liked them then! How do you clean them as mine are a bit dusty?

Talisin · 02/02/2020 17:36

Great haul, @whiskyremorse!

I was going to order a couple of sale things - just to see - with the extra 10% off but my friends delivery has gone AWOL again and now I have the hump so I won’t bother. Saves money anyway Grin

MerlinsButler · 02/02/2020 18:14

Hi all. Very jealous of the sample sale hauls. Was just wondering what the Hush Friends discount being mentioned is?

whiskyremorse · 02/02/2020 18:50

@Merlins Hush friends is a mystery. Some people buy loads but aren't a friend. I only usually buy in sales/with discounts but am a friend. It gives you free express postage but not during sales usually.

dontcallmelen · 02/02/2020 18:59

whiskey brilliant haul & great bargains, I’m not a hush friend not surprisingly as I send back way way more than I buy, but I did get invite too the preview thingy & email about the further 10% off I think the ‘friend’ status is one of life’s mysteries 😂

MerlinsButler · 02/02/2020 19:25

@whiskyremorse @dontcallmelen thanks both. I do have a wardrobe full of hush. Now I want to be a friend too!!! Feel like I'm missing out!!! Hmm

Sooverthemill · 02/02/2020 19:32

@Talisin have logged out, closed browser and logged back in? Usually works for me. My friends delivery is still there

Ellapaella · 02/02/2020 20:06

@MerlinsButler I think it's after you make a certain number of orders, it was very random when I became a 'friend' and I had been making occasional orders over about 18 months before it happened.

@whiskyremorse I just put them in the washing machine!

OP posts:
MerlinsButler · 02/02/2020 20:15

@Ellapaella. I'm been a customer since 2015 but not bought much in the last year or so!! Guess this is my new ambition for 2020. Become a Hush friend. It's as good an excuse for shopping as any other 🤷🏽‍♀️

Though I have just put a sale order in today so I'll keep 🤞. Do they notify you once you get it?

Talisin · 02/02/2020 20:31

@Sooverthemill Thank you, that worked!

@MerlinsButler They didn’t notify me, it was just suddenly there in early January. I had given up ever getting it as my spending had gone way down in the last couple of years - and then suddenly, there it was. There must be some really arcane algorithmic process to qualify.

Ellapaella · 02/02/2020 21:14

@MerlinsButler I wasn't noticed either.. just put an order in one day and found I was eligible for free next day delivery.

OP posts:
Talisin · 02/02/2020 23:03

BTW, @dontcallmelen - did you get the Onyx jacket yet and did it fit?

whiskyremorse · 03/02/2020 07:22

@ella thanks I will throw them in the machine!
