I am an expert at blagging my way into trade shopping warehouses and have even managed to get a membership card or two along the way.
Heading to Glasgow this week on Friday/Saturday. I am looking for an warehouses that I can go shopping in on Saturday to start getting myself sorted out for Christmas - nice gifts nice and cheap!
Any help would be gratefully received. Warehouses that stock craft and cardmaking goods would be excellent aswell.
Cheers!:D

Thanks for that - I am already a member here - managed to blag myself a card (not that I'm giving away any secrest on how I managed it!) for here a while back - was there recently when they were changing it about and I wasnt too impressed. It was messy, unable to find things, and the stuff I needed seemed to have been scaled down or done away with.:rolleyes:
Heyho, some you win some you lose! Cheers for the help!"Life may not always be the party you wish for, but whilst here you may aswell dance"!!!

yeah- it can be messy
tho' t'is great for candles, picture frames,vases etc !
you do need to spend a lot of time looking though.........
their Christmas decorations (eeek-that word!:rolleyes:) are really cheap too!0 -
I'm sure you can get day passes for Makro...Everybody dies, but not everyone truly lives0

Makro only give out day passes to people in selected emloyment so I found out but then they decided to actullay give Makro cards for people in my area of employment. Unfortunately it is not that great for Christmas gifts etc that I am looking for - hoping for things at rock bottom trade prices and even those on Makro Mail do not generally meet this! Thanks for the suggestion tho!"Life may not always be the party you wish for, but whilst here you may aswell dance"!!!

PS - I did find some of the places you all mentioned above - will be heading up for a days 'blagging' in the near future as I didn't get time to try this time as I was dragged round the shops by my sister instead! Cheers to you all!"Life may not always be the party you wish for, but whilst here you may aswell dance"!!!

That brings back memories - I used to go a couple of times a year when I lived in Ayr - always thought I got bargains and then every time nearly had a heart attack when cashier told me how much it was!!!:pMurphy's No More Pies Club Member No. 680
