    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    Bought some of this the other week to try on my OH who normally will only drink Gallo and he loved it so hope they still have it when I go back.

    Nipped in today before work, I think the staff recognise me now :rotfl:

    They'd just put out a large selection of camera cases really good quality, prices from 99p to £1.99, I managed to pick one and my tomtom fits in perfectly, there are several designs but I chose the hard case for 99p which is just the right size for a satnav, really pleased.
    Also noticed the kids choco milk for 19p, A5 notebooks for 49p and large Doodle pack for 99p (had quiet a few bits and bobs in it)

    hi, A bit of a cheeky request really.......

    Apparantly HB have lots of leapster games reduced to £2 each (ish!!) and my nearest is a hundred or so miles away! I was wondering if anyone on this forum who is visiting a store would mind pikcing up a couple or three suitable for a 3 year old girl ( think pink, princesses , dora etc :D) and I will pay by paypal covering any fees and postage?

    I know its a bit cheeky but I really don't want to spend £10 - £20 a game!!!

    Thanks Mambury
    sealed pot challange #572!
    Garden fund - £0!!:D

    I saw some games yesterday in Stretford Arndale, but they were for the leapfrog click start my first computer, so don't think these one's work with the leapster. If anyone knows that they do or have seen leapster games it would be great as I have just bought a leapster for my son.

    They did also have the computer, I think it was £29.99

    I'll have a look in our local one if you like tomorrow.

    If they have lots in I shall make a note what they are and drop you a line.

  • If you like good bottled water, HB have Badoit (Softly sparkling and minerally, a classy and popular French sparkling water) for 19p a bottle. Currently 6 bottles for £4.50 @ Majestic Wines.
    Seen this in Colwyn Bay & Leigh, Lancashire
