Anyone in Lincoln know what the pavements are like up to B&M from city centre? like past morrissons? I need to go B&M but I am mobility scooter reliant and it doesnt like ice and snow, it gets stuck! are the pavements cleared a bit yet? It seems a waste of £6 to get a taxi just round the corner!No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2015/2016/2017/2018

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

* 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.
Thanks for sharin these items. My partner and i went into the same store other day and there was so much cool and cheap stuff didnt see those :T

Thanks Angel_Rachie. I think I'll be starting Slimming World or similar in the new year, I've already piled on a few pounds lately and we still have Christmas to get past!0

Hi guys,
Just thought to share, got Johnson's body care "24 hour moisture Relaxing body wash" for all skin types, 400 ml from B&M Bargains today for 99p. Bargain, it's normally £2-3. I like this one because it's got nice pleasant smell. Happy Christmas everyone!...:)0 -
B&M have recently opened a store on my route home from work. Is it worth dropping in once or twice a week or do they keep their offers for longer like the big supermarkets?
I like to stock up on 'bargains' if it is something that I use. So will go in and have a mooch around soon.0 -
I find that B&M are a bit like Home Bargains, if you see something you like buy it, because it mightn't be there next time, although the foodstuffs seem to be stocked on a regular basis. I can spend ages just browsing as there's always something different! HTH:)The beautiful thing about learning is nobody can take it away from you.
Thanks to everyone who contributes to this wonderful forum. I'm very grateful for the guidance and friendliness that I always receive from you.

Please and Thank You are the magic words;)0 -
Anyone know if they have any 3 or 4 tier mini greenhouse type shelving things in at mo ?
Thanks xCherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.
No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.0 -
According to my eldest son B&M open their new store in Burton tomorrow in the old Woolworth's store.0
