Hi - I noticed a new store on a retail park next to Laura Ashley that sells what seems like all the home items that TK Maxx do and with similar large discounts.
I have a feeling that it is something to do with TK Maxx as the price stickers you know RRP then their price displayed. Also the clearance stickers are the same as in TK Maxx - Red.
Does anyone know what the store is and what it's name is?
I got a Glass Framed large James Bond Black and white print for the OH for £20 and I have seen the same print - unframed for £15 on Play!! Here it is

The color red is widely used in retailers to highlight "sale" products. It is synonymous across retailing.
It could be a number of things; they bought their POS stickers from the same supplier as TK Maxx do, It is a subsidiary brand of TK Maxx, or, just a co-incidence!0 -
Its probably TK Maxx's Homesense brand......already in Canada, or their Homegoods brand, in USA.illegitimi non carborundum0

We have one of these in Gloucester too - all the tickets are the same format and the layout is exactly the same too.
Can't remember the name though think it is Homesense as PP said.
I found it to be quite expensive, but then I do like my Debenhams 70% off home bargains0 -
It is Home Sense - there is one in Northampton. Does have some heavily discounted home items (if the RRP's are true!!). Is limited stock on some items, so don't hang around if you see something you like - it may not be there the next day!! Thought is was tied to TK Maxx as the pricing labels were the same.
Do have some good bits, but like TK Maxx this can vary day on day0 -
One has not long opened in Cardiff and according to this artical
