    ta very much oibaldy - I jumped straight in the car and nipped down there - serious bargain frenzy in there at 8.30pm! I got 3 Villa away shirts and 3 Millwall (only cos they matched the Villa Yellow) away shirts all £5 for my 5-a-side team! Also goalkeeper gloves were £1.25, we normally buy the cheaper ones for £7, so now we have enough to last until we retire from the game :)

    ***If anyone finds any Aston Villa Away Shirts (Yellow with dark blue collar) for £5 or less at an Allsports closing down (Large or Medium Adult, preferably 2 of each), and can buy 4 for me please message me and we can sort something out - we have a large squad and need a few more kits!***

    I did the same, but got there at 9.30 and they'd closed early!!

    Is it still worth making a trip tomorrow, or has everything gone?
  • Bought tons of tops and trainers £140 worth for less than £25!

    scrooge,
    there were some kids tops left over, as for adults it was mainly Liverpool away, millwall home, leeds away, lots of St Helens blue round-neck tops (not sure if proper kit or training, sorry I'm not a ruby follower), england away kits (replaced this year btw). Lots of goalie gloves, plenty of trainers and botos, but mainly massive sizes (12+).
    Apparently the Stretford Mall branch won't be opening according to the Trafford Centre staff.
  • I saw loads of Hi tec walking boots for £50 ish reduced to £6.25!!!!!!! I went looking for my hubby in the other shops - we got back and they were all gone!

    Also loads of Kickers leather shoes for £6,25

    I can see why the stores are shutting though-such rude staff; appaling cust service; swearing in front of the customers etc...all in their teens-alas!

    Excuse my ignorance, is that the one on the ground floor of the trafford centre. Do you mean it won't be open tomorrow?

    I was in there a couple of weeks ago and they had everything BOGOF though football shirts were £40, other tops were £30 yet if you go to the Irvine shop then they arent BOGOF but are exactly half the price.

    :rolleyes:
  • Any others open? Im still after some of the classics basketball tops
    Waddle you do eh?

    scrooge,
    Sorry I couldn't reply earlier, the Trafford Centre store is open today, mainly more balls and boots for sale today. Only more Liverpool away shirts on the kit side.
    They said it won't be open for long (in terms of days) as one of the delivery drivers bought an entire delivery before it went on sale! Apparently the big stores doing this sale are Sheffield and York.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Just been to the one in York, 75% of all stock and hardly anything left just a few England Away red tops for £2.50 and the odd bits and bobs
    No reliance should be placed on the above.
