    Hi there,

    I went to the gateshead store today, and there is a sale on, but the prices are no different to what they were last week when the sale started (boo hoo). Was hoping for some good deals......................will keep looking.

    In lakeside on Tuesday i wanted to buy coffee table,was told by salesman that i had to order and pay in full when ordering. I didnt do this as they are going into receivership seemed a bit of a risk.

    The 50% sale is by order of the recievers so i would only do collect and pay nothing else sorry dont know about the other stores

    hi, i drive past ilva manchester on the way to work, and this week there are signs saying "store closing 20% off"..............But in small print it says ",most items", so not everything.

    Maybe the discount will increase to meet the 50% that other stores seem to have.

    I've been at the Thurrock store last Sunday... Is it really considered to be posh? Didn't like the quality at all:confused: Everything seems to be overpriced even with discounts. I bought kitchen towels only...Though was going to spend a lot (moving to a new house and need furniture).. But saw people with full trolleys... A lady before me spent almost £700 on porcelain...

    I was in the ILVA store at Lakeside today and they had:
    50% off garden furniture
    10% off homewares
    30% off lighting
    20% off furniture.

    It might be worth waiting a few weeks until things get further reduced. (Which they will).

    Hi my husband is one of the unfortunate people being made redundant by these closures. However, that being said I am not one to pass up a bargain. The sales are now up to 60% off. Also at the Gateshead store they have a 'clearance centre' where they sell slightly soiled or damaged goods at a fraction of the original price. (Eg sofas for £100 because they have a mark on them) Plus sometimes you can barter in the clearance centre.

    As far as I know shops are open until no later than 22nd September but can close anytime before.

    Hope I helped. Any1 know any good jobs?? lol
