I got a pack of the hair slides with the bows in and within 24 hours they had both broken . Guess sometimes you do get what you pay for!

Mine too, taking them back

Really? :think:
I know a lot of shops say that if you LOOK under 25 then they may ask you for ID (to prove you're over 18). I've never known anywhere refuse to serve someone who can prove they are over 18.

I'm sure the one in Crossgates (Leeds) says something about no more than a certain amount of bottles unless over 25.

Also hand cooked crisps 15p roast ox and sweet chilli flavour. Also big tubes of jelly beans the proper ones 95p. The store in where the Aldi used to be so its a massive store!!!!:j

The alcohol policy definately is Look 25 prove 18 in HB (just changed from Look 21). Not sure about Quality Save though as its not same company.

There's a HB in Rutherglen shopping centre and one in Clydebank. They are opening more and more, there are relatively few in Scotland so far. SInce it opened in Rutherglen I am there at least once a week, I agree with another poster - it's addictive! They do have some great offers!!

Thanks for your help dorry. Don't want to make a big deal out of it cos i'm not really - but it's 'nippyone' - not 'zippy'.

I read earlier in the messages they had opened a shop in Coatbridge which is about 35 miles from me so I wanted to find out if there were any other shops closer?

Thanks for web address.

And while I'm talking to u, thanks to u sending me the web address, I made a phone and it turns out there will hopefully be a store opening in Ayrshire in the coming months which is very close to me!!:j

There's a home bargains in Bathgate , i don't know if that would be nearer to you than Coatbridge though.

Thanks for you help, I found a phone number on their web site and made a phone call and suggested an empty shop close to where I stay and was told they had already found potential premises and a store could possibly be opening in the coming months all going well. :j

LOL - at Johntea

Has anyone seen the Thornton bars mishapes recently?

I got a pack about a month ago from Bletchley, and have been suffering withdrawal symptoms ever since - even had to buy a full priced bar yesterday!

I havent seen these for a couple of weeks ( visited the Northampton and Kettering store ) I really liked them too, only got them because I was so curious as to what you guys were on about !

In my HM, they have the large bags of revels ( i forget the price.. sowwie..was under a pound ) BUT !!! they had the original coffee revels in :j:j:j oh how I love them !
