jQuery wait for an AJAX request to be completed before refreshing the page

jQuery wait for an AJAX request to be completed before refreshing the page

I've got the following jQuery:
$("#delete_products").click(function() {
$(":checkbox:checked").each(function() {
var pid = $(this).val();
$.get('delete_product.php',{pid: pid});
});
location.reload();
});
There is a problem with this since the page doesn't wait for the AJAX
request to be completed, and refreshes the page immediately and makes the
AJAX request to not run and fail.
How can I do that the page will only refresh when it done loading?
I've been given this code:
$("#delete_products").click(function () {
var promises = [];
$(":checkbox:checked").each(function () {
var pid = $(this).val();
promises.push($.get('delete_product.php', {
pid: pid
}));
});
$.when.apply($, promises).done(function () {
location.reload();
});
return false;
});
But this solution just doesn't work.
any suggestions?
