We have 3 stores within reach,one closed today and was empty the others close on 2nd and 5th jan...they are saying UP TO 70% off now but most stock is still 50%.
Got a high school musical scooter for 9.99 and some kids dvds like thomas and dora and in the night garden which i did want anyway for 4.50 each and hubby got a few xbox games for under a tenner too.
Was nice to get some bargains but i did feel a bit bad for the staff-hope they get new jobs soon.0 -

Was in my local yesterday and this very loud,rude chavvy couple wanted a refund on a toy they got in the 3 for2 offer! Manager explained no refunds just exchange the guy got very agressive and right in the managers face yelling being very confrontational so all the young guys at the tills had to go and back up the manager and ask this customer to leave which he wouldnt so they called the police to get him out.
This chavvy guy still in the store then got out a fag and lit it up instore! I couldnt believe it! How rude & nasty this customer was & I felt so sorry for the staff!! SOme people are just evil imho0 -
