  • Oh no, what a shame, I love EA.

    Do you know if this is nationwide, I was in my local store last weekend and there were no signs up advising they were closing down? This is about the only store left in my town where you can buy childrens clothes, following the closure of Woolies, Adams & QS!

    they closed down in my local town about 6mths ago. The staff weren't v happy they drew some finger comments in the washed down closed shop windows with a couple of choice epithets signifying their general dissatisfaction with closing down, poor buppers.

    I took a photo with my mobile phone.
    I always wanted to be a procrastinator, never got round to it...
  • I thought they'd closed down ages ago too - maybe they are closing them in stages like Woollies

  • They where bought by Mark One last year so it is only odd shops
  • Never heard of them. :confused:
    Thanks to all who post constructively.

  • I always found it a bit cheap and nasty to be honest. Was great for bits and bobs when the kids were young and growing out of things quickly but nothing lasted. They are cheap though and so 50% off would be bargain tastic and definately worth a look.
  • Our local store hardly has anything left now :-( I went in on Saturday and stocked up on baby clothes (know a few people who are pregnant at the moment) and saved a fortune!
