    one of my local card warehouse shops is closing and had a 75% off sale so stock up if you can. I got nearly all this year's Christmas cards for less than you would pay for one card in Clintons :money:

    Card Warehouse in Doncaster closed at Christmas. I too heard that Card Factory had bought it????
    It's getting pretty desperate out there, I have been looking for a job for ages after being made redundant (retail) and I dont think I have a hope in hell!

    We had card factory open in our high street last year. Think thats what finished off card warehouse in our town as CF is so much cheaper and the cards are lovely. We had an independent card shop close last year too. We still have two though, have Birthdays as well as CF.

    I had no idea you were looking moonpenny! Fingers crossed you find something soon.

    My sister and hubby have run out of money in Bulgaria and plan to come home travelling across europe to get back to the UK however they won't listen when everyone tells them it will be a wasted journey and still plan to come back!!!
