Suitcases

Has anyone seen any cheap suitcases about?

They all seem to be really expensive as we approach the holiday season.

    TkMaxx? Got mine for £40 - costs over £100 in department stores - or try TJ Hughes - they've had ones for £35 for ages and they're pretty good...

    Samsonite has an shop in the Mcarthur Glen outlet in Swindon (might have at the other outlet centres). Prices are usually 30% cheaper than the stores and sometimes they have buy 3 for 2 specials.

    My local wilkinsons (chippenham, wiltshire) has some from £14.
    I guess they are cheap makes, but having had 3 damaged by airlines, I think I am going to buy dirt cheap ones from now on.

    TK Maxx definitely my choice as well. They have a huge assortment.
    Also have you looked in Debenhams? They usually have some good bargains especially when they have the sale on like atm.

    Argos are very good for sets, usually about £30 for 2/3 cases. One company you may not have heard about is Studio 24 (used to be the Ace catalogue) - they're doing sets of 4 bags (2 cases, holdall and flight bag) for £30 (tip - if you buy the light-coloured cases, which are more easily spotted on carousels, Scotchguard them first, unless you want to scrub rubber marks off them every time!). They do useful personalised luggage straps, document carriers etc as well.
