Went to three stores today...

West Ealing - mostly rubbish, and only lightly-discounted rubbish at that

Wembley, Preston Road - not bad, real friendly staff, open to offers (did a deal for me on a large bag of Christmas light spare bulbs), lots of CDs left, quite a bit of store furniture up for grabs too.

Wembley, High Road - still a fair amount of stock. Not open to offers/deals at all... did ask, got a blunt 'No' (fair enough). They've extended a day to close on the 3rd due to the amount of stock left.

i might be wrong but i thought it was 1 weak for every year worked if you are under 41

or 1 and 1/2 week if over 41


maximum 12 weeks

and its £330 per week when company is in administration

so how she is going to get 12k

went into my local woolies today managed to get sex in the city box set for £29.90 . Felt sorry for the staff some of them were saying how many customers were throwing abuse at them and treating them with no respect.

Anyone live round by West Byfleet or Chertsey and know when they're going up to 80% of 90%, its just they're got so much stock its unbelieveable and they shut on the 2nd Jan and its still on 50%. But it was great got loads of stuff and actually had kids pj's (indiana ones) cost about £4. Been in every day for the last week (spent a fortune).:j

Picked up a few CD's from Milford Haven Woolies today. According to the list its closing tomorrow but the sign outside said "3 days". Items were 60% on the sale. Shall check tomorrow as I saw a Cecelia Ahern book I wanted to buy for my boyfriends sister as she has all her other books.

There were chart CD's still there. I found John Legend - Evolver (£4). I've got all his other CDs. Been a fan since I randomly picked up his first album.

I also found Michael Buble's new album 'Call me irresponsible' - the 2 disc limited edition version (£4) and two Mary J Blige albums - reflections (£2) and growing pains (£4).

Finally, I managed to get six Indiana Jones collectable action figures from the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. £2.97 each instead of £7.99.
