I've just tried to get back into the sale this morning - same way by logging in then googling and the archive link is now dead saying sale ended.

dudsville · 20/12/2022 09:30

I also just tried again our of curiosity and it's not working for me now either. Did they suss our sneakiness?

Noeggsontoast · 20/12/2022 09:35

@dudsville maybe or possibly they're updating it to take it fully live. I did think yesterday was earlier than I was expecting to see the sale.

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 20/12/2022 09:41

I can’t get back in either - probably just as well.

Does anyone know what the sizing is like in the menswear? DH is interested in the long sleeve polo shirt, he’s a medium normally in shops, I was wondering whether to order the medium or the small.

Laska2Meryls · 20/12/2022 10:39

Yep! We've been sussed!🤣

Gonegrey31 · 20/12/2022 10:48

I'm also not able to access the sale any more. I wonder if they will honour sale orders placed?

Stoic123 · 20/12/2022 10:50

They appear to be honouring sales purchases- I've just had notification that my order is on its way.

Stoic123 · 20/12/2022 10:57

@Countmeout - yes, the cut off time for Christmas orders is 12.00 today (for next day delivery). They'll want to get those out of the door first (hence cutting off our backdoor for now) - which is fair enough.

Reckon that the sale will go live this evening at some point (as long as full price orders sorted).

Laska2Meryls · 20/12/2022 12:02

Strangely had an email to that my last sale order which made this morning is on its way already but the two yesterday aren't... Not worried though as I wouldn't expect delivery until after Christmas anyway

ToastCosILoveIt · 20/12/2022 12:13

Oh no, just looked at the thread and see I have missed a sneaky sales access....

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 20/12/2022 12:14

My first sale order yesterday has been despatched already as well!

Stoic123 · 20/12/2022 12:22

@ToastCosILoveIt - don't think you've missed out. Nothing seemed to be running out of stock through our efforts so think just a few people (i.e. this thread) found it.

ToastCosILoveIt · 20/12/2022 12:24

Thanks @Stoic123 , there's nothing I need really but have a FOMO! I will be interested in the men's sale for my DH. Watching carefully now :)

Snowyowl78 · 20/12/2022 12:33

I’ve bought a few men’s things and they are not big - I’d suggest normal high street sizing.

Snowyowl78 · 20/12/2022 12:38

oh dear gone for me too, I placed a couple of next day orders and looks like they are coming!

My previous sales parcels finally turned up! some surprising winners in the ogee culottes, they are super cool and comfy, definately for the holiday wardrobe though. Montella jumpsuit is also a surprising hit, fits me really well.
None of the dresses I ordered suit me, everything is massive and billowy and is finding its way to an In post locker ASAP.

in in two minds about the copper poplin lightweight jacket- does anyone have it?

I like it lots, the colour and the fit is great, but it’s not very practical in that it doesn’t have a good or provide warmth so I’m not sure when I would wear it.

faustina · 20/12/2022 13:08

Mine is despatched too - phew! Sorry for anyone who missed the heads up yesterday - perhaps I can work my magic again by suggesting we all keep an eye on it popping up again later today?

I am quite looking forward to my new things arriving! Oh - and I read this morning that some reviews of the brown/blue chevron yoke jumper are saying it's smaller than previous versions. Does anyone who bought it in the fair isle sale think so too?

Theteapotsbrokenspout · 20/12/2022 13:26

Thank you @Snowyowl78 , when the sale comes back I’ll order the men’s top in a medium.

savvy7 · 20/12/2022 13:32

I hope they add more to the sale as I thought it was a bit disappointing - not much in the way of footwear and accessories

Nanasueathome · 20/12/2022 13:40

My order is on the way too

faustina · 20/12/2022 14:08

Only one pair of shoes @savvy7 - you're right!

I actually meant the GRAPHIC yoke jumper - the brown one with blue chevrons before. Was it smaller than previous versions?

dudsville · 20/12/2022 14:43

My orders were also fulfilled this afternoon. I wonder what flagged it up for them. Anyway, mine have always been delivered by RM and albeit the bank holidays they also have some strike days, so I expect the packages will arrive next week.

FiddleFigs · 20/12/2022 15:21

My order was also dispatched this afternoon. My husband had his eye on a couple of things too, but was too slow! Although he was slightly miffed that a couple of shirts he bought just last week were discounted quite a bit.

Countmeout · 20/12/2022 15:57

I’m so glad someone likes the ogee culottes apart from me @Snowyowl78 . I think they’re wonderful for summer.

twiddling my thumbs for a teatime sale and hoping more things are added.

Ooh, my final return just got processed!

TheChattyRat · 20/12/2022 16:27

I haven't posted on this thread yet <waves>
Can't believe we are on our second sale in so many weeks (or so it feels...)
For once I was quick off the mark yesterday (thanks to this thread) and bought the plum check dress I've had my eye on for a while and also the cobalt blue check dress. I did like more but trying to be sensible and think of wardrobe gaps. Although there wasnt that much in the sale I thought the discounts very good for the beginning of the sale. Wonder if they are not doing so well?
If I dont keep either dress I may go cot the hickory twill dress which has a nice pattern. Also like the utility dress...
@dudsville I did smile at your sale shopping with credit card and wine - that would not be a sensible strategy for me 😜
