I had my first trip to our new Home Bargains. The queue was pretty bad but i picked up some useful things. The pair of pillowcase at £2.49 are nice quality 200 thread count egyptian cotton. But watch out for the Knorr fajihta sauce 19p, by god it's hot.Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination:beer:

I think thats because the Urmston store is just a temporary unit till the Urmston shopping centre development is finished and it doesn't have much choice.
I have been heading to the Stretford Arndale store. Its far far better.
Aims for 2014
Drink a glass of water a day, Empty handbag at least once a week, Continue "not putting things off" and tackle things head on, Treasure people around me, Stay healthy and well away from hospitals, Continue to declutter/decorate house slowly and not get stressed because I can't do everything at once.0 -
