    Can we request to get an email about our offer?

    Nope, but you can get them to send you a text. Just log in to your application, click on change personal details and select yes when they ask if you want to get sms updates from the CAO, just under where they ask you to enter your mobile number. I just did it there, I have work in the morning and I don't want to wait up until 6!

    Any chance you'll be bored later and still near that tesco? I hear the thrill of robbing newspapers always pulls people back in.

    I know everyone is saying the IT publishes the points as a supplement, I think the Independent do the CAO aswell, is that also a supplement or could it be sourced online at 2 ?

    For anyone that doesn't want to wait up until 6am, I'm not sure if this is already mentioned but download the Irish times app and buy a copy of tomorrow's paper. It will be available at 3am! Oh also it's €2.99.

    Or if anyone's parents have a subscription to the Irish times on their mobile/iPad etc, screenshot all the offers and post it in the thread for the rest of us to enjoy :)

    I don't think that they're allowed post it online until after 6am. It hasn't been on the website before that in previous years so I doubt it'll change this year

    Papers aren't coming into shops until 3 or 4, been told in three different locations, anything before that's probably hocum, if this eases anyones nerves

    Edit: this is in Dublin though, May be different across the country

    I wonder what the chances of the CAO website crashing at about 6am are? Something tells me it will considering thousands will be logging on at once. The thoughts of having to wait for an extra hour or something... ugh

    It will definitely be very laggy.

    See my post here. They usually don't have the full supplement online until the offers are out.
