    I've noticed that there seems to be a few home bargains in Birmingham , I'm going to Birmingham before christmas and wanted to see if I could grab a few bargains, which one is the best and is there a B and M there at all ??
  • There is a Home Bargains at Chelmsley Wood (5-10 minutes from NEC and airport) and also one at Perry Barr One Stop. There is a B&M Bargains on the Coventry Road in Small Heath (5-10 minutes from NEC and airport) and I think Erdington High Street.

    I'm sure someone else will be on to let you know where else us Brummies have them!

    Wallasey/Liscard branch had Mamma Mia DVD box set for £4.99. contains DVD, luxury hardback journal and pen, all in a lovely presentation/musical box (...it plays music!). Ideal stocking filler.

    I also got some of the Born to Shop mugs. They had tea towels (£1.99) oven gloves (£1.99), coasters (£1.49 for 4), mugs (£1.49 boxed or 70p unboxed) and cookie jars (£2.99) in this range. Ideal for hampers.

    Go to http://www.tjmorris.co.uk/stores/ and put Birmingham in the search box. If you then click on the various stores underneath the map. it gives you the address/postcode of the store, you should be able to work which store you want to visit.
