Not sure if this has been posted before, sorry if it has.
The store on Hyde Road Manchester has these cute little drinking glasses filled with Hellmans Mild Mustard priced at 50p each. The bb date was end of dec 2010, it's nice mustard as well.
The glasses are like small liquor glasses with a red ball on the stem.0 -
Hi. Been hunting for one of these scooters for my daughter. I read somewhere that some B&M stores have a supply. Has anyone seen them in store? Ideally in the Glasgow area, but if needs be I'd travel. Thanks.0

That's great. Hope they've still got them. Would be more than happy to drive out there and pick one up. That would be a result. Fingers crossed.0

Oh yay *does a little happy dance* - the new B&M store 2 minutes from my home has opened. It's in Middleton, Leeds, in the little shopping park where Iceland and Wyndsors is.
Saw lots of bargains including:
* Peppa Pig George fleece blanket £3.99
http://www.thetoyshop.com/InfantAndPreschool/PeppaPig/Peppa-Pig-George-Clouds-Fleece-Blanket/EPN394668
* Peppa Pig George fleece pyjamas £3.99
* Houndstooth gloves (very similar to £12 Tote ones) and some with leather pads, £1.99
* Lots of lovely Christmas and winter fragranced candles, some in jars, 99p - £1.99, and some fab 40-hour ones for 99p
* Chocolate cream Hob Nobs 59p (nom, nom!)
* Lots of Christmas decs, baubles, trees, indoor and outdoor lights, got a set of 40 white for the fireplace for £1.99
* Two-pack of very Cath Kidston-esque tea towels £1.99
* Cute fabric cat doorstop, very shabby chic, £2.99 and some gorgeous 'Home' signs with hooks for coats, with clocks on and just for display
And loads, loads more, including an aisle for food, one for gifts, one for clothes, shoes, accessories and baby, a few for home and a few for toys, plus a large area for Christmas decs, the place is huge (was the ex Somerfield store) and took me about 35 minutes to wander round looking at everything. Was quite busy as it was just after school, but the queues were getting through the tills quickly.0 -
Fifi Stack-a-Cake game £4.99
Been looking to get this for DD, usually £9.99 everywhere I've seen them but they always out of stock!! Looked in B&M on the off chance when went to buy paint yesterday and there is was, and for half the price I thought I would get it for. Reviews on this are great for little ones, my DD is 2yrs n 4mths and I know she will love it0
