Was wondering why Walsall was the only place excluded from the extra 10% offer, so I went there today. On entering you see loads of signs stating an extra 20% off lowest marked prices. Sounded too good to be true, and it was!!! As an example, most if not all other stores have roller blinds marked at 40% off, making it 50% with the voucher today. Walsall has roller blinds at 20% off with another poster gleefully telling you a further 20% off the lowest price, taking you to 40% where other stores are already. Where 50% was indicated at Walsall, no extra discount was given. Essentially the Walsall store was 10% higher in purchases today compared to the rest of the country* (* an estimate on the 7 other stores I've visited last week - Lucky with my job ;-) )
Make your own mind up why that is...!!!!0 -

Remember that the extra 20% is off the lowest price (after the original 20% is taken off) so it does not add up to a 40% discount.
Eg a £100 item less 20% = £80 at till
Takeaway (20% x £80) £16 = Final price = £640 -
just got a new zanussi double oven (still in packaging), 40% + 10% extra £360, lowest price on the net £490, well pleased, were nearly bought one a month ago. That's £130 in my pocket, and a contribution to the staff fund collection pot. The staff at Alton and petersfield still helpful and polite, not much stock left now.******************************************
It's not what you SAVE it's what you PAY that counts!!

so when some items are 40% off..does that really mean 20% and then another 20% off the cheapest price?0
