Has anyone else been having a problem getting the McCall, Butterick, KwikSew site to happen, this morning? I'm ready to load up on $.99 out of print patterns and it's so slow.

What I do is:
I click on what I want and put it into a new tab. I go do something else and come back and look at the tabs later. They are usually loaded by the the time I get back.
I image the site is slow due to the vast amount traffic it's getting because of their sale.

It's the same issue on the simplicity website.

I'm going to try again a little later this evening...then again very early tomorrow morning. Maybe the traffic will be down a bit.

I am glad to see this thread. I thought my computer was having issues.

The Simplicity site is ALWAYS slow. The McCall site is not usually. I'm sure it's because of the sale. I was able to make my purchase, but it pretty much took all day.

The shopping part was slow, but if you're patient, it's doable. The problem is trying to check out. I kept getting errors. I must have tried more or less continuously for 3+ hours before I finally got through. Most of the time I get an error before the page where you enter your address. Sometimes I get through to that page, but once I enter the address and payment information, I got error then as well....until the last time when I finally got through. I would have waited and come back later but I didn't want the items to go out of stock while I wait, and I figured I didn't want to waste that much time for nothing.
