picked up a sure and secure double bed rail for £3.25 got the cruzer 4 and babyliss hair dryer and straighteners even managed to find a single panasonic with 5 day out of date sel, got some zhu zhu pets pull along things for £1.00
for people looking for the babyliss stuff and finding it hard the packaging is just black on the hair dryers where as the new one has purple dots on it,basically the older stuff has darker looking packaging and if original sels is more expensive than the newer ones

OMG I'm soo knackered! Been to 8 stores today :eek: Had to give a miss to the other 3 that were on my list as I already was out for over 8 hours! :eek:

Got lots of things but not much from my "most wanted" list...

So I got: gear4 PG490 for 15GBP, the lumi(something)clock for 10GBP(some left in BB nikkilala), a tefal iron for 5,50GBP, single electric blankets 1.25GBP, baby blankets (haha), a hoover(the red boxes hoover brand green one with a sel of 73.xx?) for 18GBP, bouncy castle 2.50GBP, headphones 1.00GBP, megablocks at 3.00GBP, bounceback king 4.5tog duvet 3.00GBP and singles at 1.90GBP(the double ones are 12.00GBP everywhere as halfprice!)

Gosh, I think that's it... Not sure as I left it all in the car so my bf doesn't have a heart attack when he comes back LOL We have no more room until we move next weekend and the car's boot is full too Don't know how I'll manage with my planned trip for tomorrow and Monday...

Anyway, just some feedback:
Sunbury-on-thames: really big one, the scanner not working upstairs and the SA's not very helpful, well he did price check the items for me but there was one breadmaker on display and I asked if he had anymore and he didn't bother to check just said no I didn't want the display item so left it... I'm sure there would be some bargains but hard to find... while I was there two ladies asked for a pricecheck on some laptops and then two of the guys came back with all the dells and toshibas without the ladies so I guess they told them not able to sell or something and just took them all to the back to have for themselves! one of them was checking the price and I could see the grin on his face! :mad: I wasn't really after one but I think they should let the ladies have one! They brought back ca. 7-8 of them... So I got the tefal iron, bouncy castle and the last orange headphones from there...
Staines Homeplus: I really loved that one! Definitely going back there on Monday! I spend 1,5 hour there alone! really useful that there is a scanner downstairs and upstairs and both working! I price checked loads and found some nice bargains too... the hoover(there was 1 or 2 left), electric blankets(last 2 mine, I was very impressed they weren't gone as the sel was 1.25:eek:), baby blankets, megablocks(some left, 3-4 maybe, I saw a lady scanning them and saw it was 3.00GBP so followed her but she took all 4 boxes from the shelf... Luckily there was more in a different aisle ) and the bounceback duvets... scanned lots of the beauty stuff but no real bargains... Anyway I love that store and the fact it's only 20mins drive when I thought it would be much further away...

Going north-west tomorrow so hopefully more nice finds I really really wanted the sony x50 dock but nowhere to find Also the bread maker and kenwood food processor... Well, maybe tomorrow I'll be more lucky

Managed to pick up my first major DTD today in L0udw@ter store. Got a barbie car, they had 2 Barbie cars the one at the front of the display had the sticker taken off but the one behind didn't. Also managed to get a BT Freelance XB2500 twin pack phones, was marked at £39.99 but scanned at £89.99 so in total a £125.59 shop cost me 59p. The whole phone display was a bit of a mess so might be worth checking it out for more possible DTD's

A big thank you to everyone on the board for all there help.

you must have missed out on the breadmakers, as i was in there about 12pm and they had about 10 left.

Also if anyone is interested sunbury had the hoover dust manager at £73 but scanning at £18. they're on the ground floor beside the escalator
