Toasties hoping for a sale while sailing into Christmas

New thread

In my wishlist I am seeing reduced items...

Me too @TerrierOrTerror 🤞

My wish list has been like that for ages. Where did you see the sale sign @Dee1224 ? Like on the menu in red? Exciting

Hi @Snowyowl78 - ‘sale’ appeared on the Google page last night and was also one of the links when I went onto Toast. Of course, when I clicked, I was informed that the sale had ended😹

Then it all disappeared 😹😹😹

I checked my order history
I definitely bought reduced items on 28th November last year
Black Friday maybe?

Always a Thursday I thought.

@Nanasueathome
I too bought things on the first day of a sale last year on 28 Nov. I think they will avoid Black Friday - they like to be a bit different. But I may of course be wrong however something sale-like is definitely brewing!I

Yes, I also ordered on 28 and 30 November, though I returned one, a summer dress, and sold the top I bought on eBay. So I need to be very discerning and only buy what I already have on my wish list.

Annoyingly, my Uniqlo cord trousers have shrunk upwards and inwards on their SECOND wash🙀- they are now the same size as the two pairs I am returning to hopefully exchange for some AH collaboration stuff tomorrow.

Very annoying and disappointing- they were so ‘Toasty’ in look and cheap.

Fingers crossed for sale tomorrow, (or maybe next Monday 😹).

Looking through my emails, it was the last Monday in November for the last 3 years. I also returned or sold on the things I bought last year, so need to be mindful of that.

@Dee1224 that's really odd - I've lived in mine (both last year's and this year's) with no issues.

Impatiently awaiting a potential sale...

It was the £19.99 specials @TerrierOrTerror - I washed them both times at 30 degrees - am very sad 😿

@Dee1224 - that's rubbish about your Uniqlo cords! One of my sons really rates their selvedge jeans and I've bought a few pairs of jeans in the past with no problems. I think they have a phone number where you can speak to a real person. Might be worth calling them? They aren't fit for purpose

Thanks for the suggestion @faustina - I know they were cheap, but I really liked them and was excited about having more colours. I wore the black ones today, but they were just a bit too tight everywhere 😾. I think they looked ok with a long jumper, but they didn’t feel right.

Off to Uniqlo tomorrow and will report back on AH jump.

The Uniqlo Anya Hindmarch collection is available online now, I have ordered a couple of jumpers and some of the smaller items for presents. Hop it is as good as it looks.

Patiently waiting for the Toast sale.

The Uniqlo AH collab has completely sold out - every last little thing! I knew it might be popular when I saw it in the Guardian and then mentioned by the Frugality on Insta. Luckily I was up early and checked to see if it had started early and it had so I have hedged my bets and ordered a green jumper in a M and a navy one in a S, plus the two bags. Very interested what you make of the sizing @Dee1224 if you do go - I'm in London tomorrow so could potentially pop into a branch if necessary. the frugality said to size up but Uniqlo said not to though still no actual sizing info

Hopefully Toast will do something this afternoon? I'm relying on our super-sleuths here to let me know!

Oh I had my eye on the green AH sweater at Uniqlo and didn't think to check early. DH has been instructed to pop into a branch near his office at lunchtime.

I checked at 5am on the Uniqlo site and it wasn’t live, but when I checked again just after 7am the lambswool jumpers were sold out except in XS. Not devastated but I would have liked one!

Wow! I am a bit surprised that the AH stuff is sold out already - but it is a very limited offering, (Sadly, I expect a lot of it is already being listed on eBay.)

I will report back on the situation in branch - I will be there in a couple of hours - but am now expecting the cupboards to be bare🙀

I actually just looked on ebay and there are pages of it, for a really high mark up. I thought Uniqlo were better at coping with collabs now but clearly not. Lots of very angry people on Instagram. Hope you find something nice @Dee1224

It went live around 6.40am, much earlier than I thought it would. I got the lambswool sweater in green.

Hi @faustina et al, I have just been in Uniqlo - I asked about the collection and was told that the whole lot, including kids wear, sold out as soon as the shop opened. People were, and I quote, ‘grabbing armfuls’.

I told the assistant that I took a very dim view of this, pointed out it was all on EBay already and suggested that people should be restricted to only a few items.

The only thing left was the very flimsy nylon bag - worth under a fiver imo, so I left it.

I tried on more of the trousers, but they weren’t right, so swapped for an overpriced - imo- heat tech top -and a bargain reduced C collaboration dress, (which I am hoping doesn’t shrink, as it ‘fits where it touches’ now!)

Currently in the food court muttering to myself over a too hot ramen😹

@Dee1224 - your suggestion is a good one and it's what they usually do (restricting one of each per person). I wonder why they didn't do it with AH? I hope you're doing something else interesting after the ramen to make up for it. Were you after anything in particular?

I wanted a scarf, hat and socks @faustina as my exchange, (which is why I didn’t order online this am😿)

Oh well, off to look at beauty advent calendars (that I must NOT buy), in a minute!
