ELC is shutting down, Trafford centre is already gone, we have just bought "Snow Queen Palace" for £17(was £75). Manchester is open for a few more weeks. We had been in the Trafford centre in the morning and everything was half price. at 2:30pm the manager was dropping prices in the queue. If you know when your local store is closing let's getem on here. I will add anymore that I hear about as soon as possible. Elc is closing after the buy out by Mothercare so a large number of stores are closing and some will become mothercare

I always thought that ELC was one of those shops where they over-expanded and had too many sites. Plus the stuff was pretty expensive anyway. Hopefully a few bargains for some MSE'ers.0

wow that's a shock, I worked for them for a bit but left just as the mothercare buy out happened. Their toys are expensive but as a mom of 3 they are worth it for quality alone, non of my toys r us or mothercare items have withstood the play like the elc things.
Perhaps it's places where there is a big Mothercare and ELC?0 -
The Oldham branch shut down about a month ago...it's a shame really as the toys are excellent quality and now we have no ELC or woolworths I have no where except the big supermarkets to buy toys from.0

Are they doing any clearances???0

ignore that was ages ago
:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
No sign of these types of clearance in my local store. Just a normal sale with not that much off0
