does anyone know how the layout of items will be? Will they all be together somewhere in store or will they be in their usual places with full price items??

Does anyone know what 'main' stores they are talking about? I know they have 560 stores, so which 300 constitute being 'main'?

In my area, all main stores (ie those which sell clothes and food) are running the penny bazaar. None of the Simple Foods round here will be and I think that will be true across the country.

The items will be split equally each day, so if they are sold out on the Wednesday, they will be available again on the Thursday morning etc.

The food items will change each day, the clothes and toys remain the same. Each store will have market stalls set up in one zone, based on the original penny bazaar. The TV ad with Twiggy goes live on Monday and is very good.

which has a cover price of 1p this issue. I imagine this is available in all stores? (you still get it free if a cardholder - wowee!)

Only if the internet was available 125 years ago.

Ah, so my DP wasn't going mad then?! HAHAHA. He saw it in a paper at work on Friday and when we were in Bury (St Edmunds) on Saturday, we saw no indication of it, other than the magazine, which was 1P - though I was not charged and not a cardholer? Would rather have been charged, as it would have meant no change. Anyway....

Thank you for all the info everyone and hopefully we'll get there (and the shop will be running it) on one of those days this week. It is DP's birthday on the 23rd, so maybe find a nice "little" present for him?
Do you think I can send my 2 1/2 year to pay for an extra 5 items?! LOL

Incidentally, I got the magazine yesterday and there is a competition in there that looks good; you can only enter with the mag as yo have to send the form in so do get one if you can.

Wow, this looks like it could be good.
Thanks to the person who posted the info about it.
I hope there will be a store near me that has some of these 1 penny items.
Roll on Wednesday.

According to my OH who works there, there will be different items out each day.

So if there are different items each day, can we each get 5 items per day?!
