The Next VIP slot and what it is…
Want to know how to get a VIP Slot for the Next Sale? Here’s our suggestion for the best way…
- You must have a Next Account. Without an account, it ain’t happening.
- Make sure your Next Credit Account has at least £250 credit available from a month before the VIP sale selections.
- Have placed (and not returned) an in-season item.
- Have you email address correct (wrong address = no Next Sale Preview invite!)
Now, once you have the access, you NEED the first slot. Otherwise, you’ll see lovely discounts, but lose out on them as others pip you to the proverbial post.
How To Get The First VIP Slot In The Next Sale
Want to know? Simple… beat the system. I’m all about finding a way to get additional discounts by making the most of policies and comparisons. Most retailer price compare systems and website work on updates. Once an update is applied a new price applies etc. Now, for the Next sale, the VIP system updates on the dates mentioned at the top of this post around 9 am, usually days before the sale starts. Next will release their VIP slots along with these updates meaning that you can try booking them BEFORE you’ve actually received an email invitation or SMS. Simply check by clicking here to access the sale page and log in to see. Be sure to book the absolute earliest slot available and if it works you will get an email confirming your slot! Boom!
Savvy Tips for the Next VIP customer, including QuickShop.
Even with the prime VIP slot sorted, you’re still going to need to move like shit off a shovel. Use these tips below to bag those items you’ve eyed up.
- USE THE SALE PREVIEW: This is a link that will be sent to you. This can be used to trawl the items that will be live and make a note of the simple “QuickShop” account number. You’ll need these for when the VIP slots go live and it speeds everything up. Click on this link to find out more about Quickshop.
- HUNT FOR THE MARKER: You can check in stores the sort of items going in the sale as “often” they are marked up with a crude code of a letter followed by numbers. According to some staff, the number is the reduced price.
- KEEP BROWSING: You can use the preview link more than once, keep checking back in case you missed something.
- THE 15 MINUTE RULE: Failing to add items to your basket within around 20 minutes means you lose your hard-earned slot. Try applying a 15-minute rule to be safe and add something cheap as soon as you log in.
