    I think we should all make a point of setting the timers, that way if we are in a shop and the timers are going off we know all the bargains have been snapped up already. lol.
    Four guns yet only one trigger prepare for a volley.


    Together we can make a difference.

    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!


    That's fab ben, I just love it. I would love to have been a fly on the wall when they started going off.

    Half the shelves in my local store were empty at 11 today. Very disappointing.

    I got a girls world fabulosa face painting styling head for £10 from sheffield parkway and iv seen this on amazon for £30 so was pleased but there were lots of empty looking shelves and no stocking filler bargains that i was hoping for. Im keeping my fingers crossed that when i drive over this week they will have filled all the shelves with amazing bargains :T and il struggle to the car with all my bags :rotfl:

    im going to keep my eye out for the homer socks thanks :)
