Also saw Disney CARS set of 3 bowls for 99p, like the Thomas ones I got last week.

Saw one Iggle Piggle wash mitt on the shelf away from anything remotley related to it, no price ticket or anything similar anywhere else (Hudds store) I know they were £4.00 at Boots though. My LO has both the Iggle Piggle & Upsy Daisy so if anyone sees the Makka Pakka one can you let me know please? This is the set of 3 together, http://www.amazon.co.uk/Night-Garden-Squashy-Washy-Sponge/dp/B00151WHMW

There is a Home Bargains opened in Rutherglen shopping Arcade, lovely big shop , big wide aisles, clean and nice staff. I wish it had opened sooner, they had lots of stuff I would have bought for Xmas!

I'll be a regular visitor there now I think.

I was sad to see the close of a long standing store, but very very happy to be getting a HB 2 minutes away from work. :T

You think it's great until you get the urge every day to go in there "just to have a look" and then walk out with a bagful! I have to walk past the Manchester store every day on my way to and from work and I just can't resist taking a peek inside in case they've got any new stock in - home bargains addiction is a very serious thing lol!

Are B&M the same as Home Bargains?

Reason I ask is it is rumoured they're taking on the old Woolworths site in Pontefract but Pontefract already have a Home Bargains

No, they are different companies. They sell similar items. But HB seems to be a lot cheaper IMO.
