Livingston: L.K.Bennett sale including a £225 jacket for £25 @ McArthurGlen Outlet
At McArthurGlen Outlet mall in Livingston, I recently picked up a very nice grey jacket for £25.

I asked the assistant, as I'd gone in expecting to pay close to top price, but she said, without a hint of…

The Eastgate Centre in Inverness's shops are running a handful of Christmas reductions. Most are rather meagre, but this 50% off "mid-season" sale at Topman looked rather nice. Enjoy your polyamide polo shirts!
