90% off trainees, calendars, socks etc including Nike, Adidas, Reebok etc

Went into Sports Soccer today in Speke, liverpool and they were bringing out boxes of trainees (or trainers if your're not from Liverpool which has been kindly pointed out by Dazco) :D with 90% off.
I bought 12 pairs for my 3 kids (some to put away.) Also had mens and ladies reduced but not much choice.
There were a lot of really trendy ones. Paid on average £2.50 a pair - not bad for Adidas, Reebok and Nike trainees.
They also had Everton and Chelsea calendars reduced to £0.69 and nice mens formal England Socks reduced to £0.59 for 2 pair. Would have bought more if I had realised the quality.
They were reducing more stuff as I was leaving but I was knackered after being in the shop for 2 hours.
Will fly out at these prices.
Regards

    Only a joke mods before you think we are starting a slanging match.
    I now have visions of Harry Enfield and his perm and polyester trackies (tracksuit) doing a scouse skit

    To think I always thought I was well spoken:o
