    Was in Cardiff store earlier this week, nothing special there so I set all the kitchen timers to go off at 1 minute intervals, took me ages there was 30+ there!

    Is it just me or does everyone else think HB are lacking in good buys this last week or so?
    I went in on Thursday and couldn't find ANYTHING I wanted other than a few packs of biscuits and I only bought them because I have to buy something when I go in. I've never come out of a HB store with only biscuits before.

    I like the sound of the Pirates Scene It game but they didn't have them in the Doncaster store when I went in on Thursday.
