  • West Ealing is closing tomorrow, but having been there this morning, I was quite disappointed. Lots of CD's but still at 50%, and other than that, mostly tat. I thought it'd be absolutely rammed, but there were about 5 of us there. It reminded me of a car boot sale where somebody has lots of junk on their stand that everybody will browse through, but nobody is really interested in.

    Will try Wembley High Street this afternoon - that was very good a few days back. Might also give Greenford a shot if I can fit it in.

    Went back to ours (Portrack) as needed to go to nearby shops. 70% off most things now. Stocked up on batteries as we needed some for the kids Xmas presents. Some right vultures there. Most of the stock left is just tat.

    Woolies in Milton Keynes is almost bare! But on Saturday I was quite surprised to grab Heroes - complete Series 1 on DVD for £16, it was the last one... Also managed to grab a 9" Desk Fan for £2.99last one in the shop too I think as the shelves were empty and I found it dumped down an isle somewhere, which I think maybe somebody had changed their mind about buying.

    everything was only 50% off there but they have about a week left to go still. Don't know what they will have anything to sell by then tbh!

    I feel so bad shopping in there though, it's just a really strange feeling! :o

  • Cumbernauld store closes today:(

    Got Spore for PC for £3.50, Duran Duran album for 20p, couple of packs of batteries. Had hoped to get Heroes cheap, but not much at all left in store.

    Made sure I passed on a Good Luck For The Future to the girl behind the till. They all seemed pretty upbeat considering.

    End of an era...

    Hi, hope this kind of query has not already been answered!!
    My bro-in-law has bought my 3 yr old some god awful bratz stuff only suitable for ages 6+. He has lost the receipt (idiot) and its from Woolworths (however it does say on the box its exclusive the the store only) Its faulty, where do I stand, can I return it? If so what can i expect as a refund? HELP!

    asked in our store today and they would only have issued refund on Faulty Items .. if you had receipt or any proof of payment (bank statement etc )
