Wolverhampton store had Hartleys Smooth Squeezy Orange Jam bottles for .29p. Really quite nice and picked up a few. Also as a Star buy they have Daz liquid tabs with 11 in them £2.50 each or 2 for £5, however if you go to the cleaning section they have a 22 pack liquid tabs for £4, so you're saving a £1.

Nottingham phone number & Nottingham postcode

Tamworth Road, Long Eaton
Unit 28 Tamworth Road,
Long Eaton,
Nottingham
NG10 1JJ

Tel: 0115 972 4794

For anyone interested in the explanation .....

Long Eaton borders Nottinghamshire but is actually situated in the County of Derbyshire. Most residences however have a Nottingham address with the Nottingham postcode prefix NG, and use the Nottingham telephone area code 0115.

It is a common misconception that Long Eaton is part of Nottinghamshire. The reason for the NG prefix in the postal code is that all mail for Long Eaton first goes to the Royal Mail's Nottingham sorting office in Beeston (hence the NG), and then to Long Eaton's delivery office on Tamworth Road.

The Local Government Commission for England (1958 - 1967) recommended that Long Eaton became part of an enlarged Nottingham City Council. This was not the only time Long Eaton's status in Derbyshire was threatened as the original draft of the Local Government Act 1972 had considered moving Long Eaton into Nottinghamshire. The Redcliffe-Maud Report proposals of 1969 also recommended the town be moved into Nottinghamshire but the incoming Conservative administration rejected the proposal. This issue has rumbled on over many years.
