    The items I post are from either Kettering, Northampton or Wellingborough (although I usually say 'my local') - dependent on where I decide to shop that day or week!:D

    I thought it might worth trying to see which one is the best HB. I sadly have to go into one when I see one. Bedworth is better than Cov City Ctr, but Northampton I think is better than either of those. It's also better than Stechford, Chelmsley Wood, Kettering, Redditch and Boston due to stock availability. I should stop going in one when I see one!:beer:

    I have to do that as well - also do it with poundland and B & M (when on holidays etc) as I just have to see if I can get some of the items that are useful from the good offers posted!:D I think I have an addiction!!:eek:

    Thanks cookiemonster25, I looked again today when I was in and still couldn't see any - maybe our shop won't get them - we don't seem to get a lot of the stuff that's posted on here?:mad:

    Sorry to drag on about this, but this is what I mean. I've read about these on a previous page as well and I can't find these in our shop either? I just think M&S or Tesco (especially when its pack of 8) are better quality than normal single ones HB sell.

    Managed to get an 8 pack of girl's knickers today for £2.99. I got size 4-5yrs, but they had smaller as well.

    Why is it though, that I go in HB wanting to spend £2.99 on some comysoft and ending up spending £21?
