How to make the most of the Next sale
THESE tips from a Next employee can help you make sure you bag the best bargains when the sale launches.
- Familiarise yourself with the stock – check in store and online to see what items you might fancy, that means you’ll be able to act fast once prices start dropping.
- Check online – often the sale launches online before stores open so go digital to get the best bargains.
- Consider the VIP scheme – if you have a credit account you can get access to the sale before the general public.
- Choose the right store – smaller outlets are likely to be less rammed, so you may have less competition for deals.
- Shop late in the day – around two hours before closing, staff start replenishing stock for the next day, so this is a great time to hit the stores.
- Look at ticket codes – if you’re in a Next keep an eye out for black dots on tickets; chances are that means an item is going to be discounted, so you’re better off waiting till the price drops.
- Homeware and women’s clothing sells fastest – so you might want to get to stores first thing for these items.
Plus, for those looking to nab athletic wear, there are Black/White Vomero 17 Running trainers from the same designer.
They’re marked up at £70, down from the original price of £145.
And, Nike Pink TC 7900 trainers are now £75 instead of £110.
But, if the sporty aesthetic isn’t your vibe at all – there are also some great summer steals in the heels section.
A pair of elegant Tommy Hilfiger Cream Webbing High Wedge Sandals only cost £55, slashed from £90.
Plus, there’s some sophisticated golden Lauren Ralph Lauren Emmy Crossover Sliders going for £70 – which originally cost £159.
In addition, beautiful Carvela Lattice Sandals have been discounted from £119 to £55.
SIGN UP FOR FUTURE VIP SLOTS
To receive a VIP Sale invite you will need to have successfully opened a nextpay credit account ahead of any event.
So, it’s too late to become a VIP for this event, but you can always sign up ahead of the next one.
However, be careful when taking out a store card and make sure it is something you can afford to pay off.
Interest rates can be very high, so you need to make sure you can pay them off in full each month.
Otherwise, the amount paid in interest will counteract the savings you make in the sale.
Other requirements to become a Next VIP include:
- Having a Next flexible credit account with at least £250 credit available
- Placing and keeping an order from the Next Directory within the last year
- Having an up-to-date email address registered with Next, and being registered to receive sale and promotional emails
- Receiving a copy of the Next Directory
- Returning less than two-thirds of the items ordered
All VIP sale slots are granted on a first-come, first-served basis, and they’re restricted to one per customer.
Users have the best chance of getting amazing deals by accepting the first slot they’re allocated because things can sell out quickly.
As always, remember when shopping in any sale, it’s only a bargain if it is something you were looking to purchase anyway.
If you are buying because something is discounted, then you are not necessarily saving money.
