  • Hi, I usually go to Gilesgate store and have been to the Washington store twice now - not very much stock I would say and lots of empty shelves

    Thanks Janey. Saved me a trip to find out. Maybe it'll pick up soon. I'll stick with Jarra for the time being. :)

    Has anyone been to the new Home Bargains at Washington Galleries? If so, what's it like? I usually visit the one in Jarrow, which is good, but I'm always up for new experiences. :)

    I've been to the Galleries HB...well you have to don't youicon10.gif

    I prefer Jarrow, The Galleries didn't have anything better or different to Jarrow and they had hardly any wine in stock,the shelves were bare......they must be big wine drinkers in Washington.lol
