    Don't know why!
  • Our store was supposed to close today - according to the list.
    It isn't closing until the 5th! The list is incorrect.

    My store closed today - still hideously overpriced to the end, selling Lost DVD set for £44 (reduce from 50-something) - guess the branch manager didn't get the memo about slashing prices to clear.

    P.S. anyone remember C&A closing? There was a similar kind of national outpouring of grief back then, IIRC.

    Our Woolworths moved into the old C&A store! Maybe the store is cursed?!

    Picked up a few bits in our local today, quite a few pairs of baby socks at 25p a pair. Also got some party bits (table cloths/Power ranger card face masks) 7p each!

  • aah yes. good old c&a. a great place for cheap skiwear!

    some of the woolies closing dates seem to be changing don't they? perhaps they still have a lot of stock to shift.

    I went into my local branch today and got a huge tub of pick and mix for £1.99 and two big bags of haribo for a £1 and 30 ball point pens for a £1 as well. I feel quite bad, like a vulture!

    So all stores are 70% now even though they went 50% on Boxing Day?
