TURNS OUT THIS WAS FAKE!

This friday on the 16th of July there will be a new Primark opening in Bury (Lancashire)

Everything will be priced at £1.00 each on this Friday only, open from 11am till 8pm

There will be many other shops opening in the area to with special offers such as first 50 customers at certain stores get goody bags containing vouchers etc.

New cinema and bowling too

great deal for people who live in the North West

Thanks to kamy187 on HUKD

Opening at The Rock http://www.therockbury.com/

I'm not promoting violence, but take a bag with you. Maybe with a couple of bricks in it, it's going to be crazy!

    Amazing offer, everything in Primark priced at £1 per item all day???

    I guess petrol to Bury and back (for me) rather outweighes any savings though!


    Happy moneysaving all.

    Be warned, it WILL be rowdy.
    My friend went to one recently & she said there were crushes, people stealing stuff from each others baskets & fights.

    I love primark, but I couldn't be doing with a crush for the sake of getting cheap clothes for even cheaper.

    Just a bit of advice, if i was you I would not try to park in Bury, car parking is a nightmare at the best of times, bus or tram is you're best bet! good luck to all those going!

    fingers crossed - lets hope it's set out better than the Mill Gate car park!
  • We've had Primark for years here in Belfast and I'm a bit addicted!!. So much so that when my youngest daughter's teacher asked the kids to name a landmark in Belfast ie Harland & Wolff, Stormont, etc my DD piped up "Primark Miss"!! I was mortified when she told me!! What makes it worse is that her father is a Tour Guide so it's not like she didn't know anywhere else!! Good luck to you all in the stampede!!
  • Is it true - everything £1 ???? I need 6 prs of curtains n 12 cushions - will these really be £1 ????
