Just had an email from Jaycotts - Vogue patterns are half price.

According to Weaverdee's website the sale is on until October 3rd. The latest pattern release hasn't landed in the UK yet but plenty of goodies. The McCalls half price sale seems to end on Saturday or Sunday I think.

I had the email from WeaverDee - a few half price Vogue and McCall patterns somehow found their way into my basket.

I got this from Minerva:

Apologies to anyone who tried to pick up some patterns in the Vogue Patterns half-price sale only to find they were still half price. This problem has now been fixed and all Vogue Patterns styles are now 50% off as planned.

Am I missing something?

I've been, I've looked and decided to keep my hands in my pocket.  I have too many and the last one I bought is still unused, despite buying the fabric for it.  Last winter was not good for coats, they never went anywhere.  I want to make it and wear it. 

The main winner was tops and skirts although I did manage to wear the dress I made to a family party a few weeks ago.

I forecast a similar winter.  It's getting harder and harder to get out more when you are avoiding crowds.

It's obvious innit?  There's a big difference between half-price and 50% off  :laughing: :laughing:

Or someone has no clue about maths... :[

50% off the 50% price perhaps??

Write to them and ask for clarification, in old money.
