Carlisle HB had nonslip coathangers. 10 for £2.99. These are covered in a felt like substance - if you see what I mean! Saw similar in TK Maxx for £6.99. Such a good idea.

I know this has been posted before but wanted to say bought Disney Think Fast game for PS2 for 99p.
Have just played it this evening and was great fun, for anyone who loves playing buzz it's a must have, especially children, my 8 year old daughter beat us all !!
If you have a PS2 it's a must have.

Thanks just looked on map and cwmbran and newport are nearer for me so i will take a look next saturday at both, does anyone know whether i would be wasting my time going to two as do they all sell exactly the same things, please.;)

The Cwmbran one doesn't seem to have quite as many bargains as the Newport one. However, saying that, sometimes (unusually) it does have some things that maybe Newport has run out of. I always seem to get better bargains in Newport but I've only been in Cwmbran 4 times & may be more used to the layout in Newport. Cwmbran is a fair sized store. Was really hoping that Cwmbran (a new store & far nearer for me) would give me everything that Newport does. I'll second going in the B&M next to it. The Lidl in the next block is wonderful for fresh fruit & veg also.

If you are going by bus you may find the Cwmbran one FAR more convenient as it's adjacent to the big U shaped bus stops (up from Lloyds & Barclays). It's where Somerfield used to be. Load up & get straight on a bus home. The Maesglas one is a bit out of the way.

Middlesbrough has some gorgeous storage boxes, they're pale blue with white polka dots and a pink rose pattern - very shabby chic!

£1.99 for small
£2.99 for medium
£3.99 for large

On the topic of storage boxes, i picked up some lovely ones today from Harborne, B'ham- white with a black flower pattern. They were described as "large storage box", but when I picked one up, it was too heavy to be just that, so I figured it might have another smaller one inside- I was right, two in fact.
Fab sizes and all three for 3.99! Would be ideal for hampers, etc

And a request- if anyone spots any of the 60 min scrapbook kits, apart from the boy one, in the B'ham area, can you please give me a heads up? Thanks x

Winnie the pooh changing mat in the Treforest store was only £3.99, may have bought the last one though.

The Stig Lunch Box (the fabric cool bag type that zips up) £3.60, this would be at least £8-10 anywhere else :beer:

Fruit & Nut Mini Weetabix - £1.00
