Hi, I want to wish all the Focus staff, particularly the ex Great Mills ones, and their suppliers (who are massively affected when a major customer disappears) all the best for the future. The past couple of months must have been really difficult for you all.
I would just like to say that I have been made redundant twice, both due to site closures, and both times I have managed to find jobs fairly quickly. If you are able to get help with your CVs please take it as a good CV gets you a foot in the door. Also don't be embarrassed to sell yourself as you only get one chance to show why you are best for the job (don't underestimate the skills & experience you have gained in your current job)0 -

I'm not sure how long ours has left, but some things are still 20%!! I think the pet stuff was still 25%, but then if pople are still buying it at that price, why would they need to drop it?? Got my eye on a plastic playhouse too, but i don't hold out much hope of me getting one, lol, really need he matress though

I asked about how the prices were calculated as I was interested in some paving slabs originally priced £2.99 each. There was a sign up saying 30% off = price £2.09 after all discounts and another with just 30% off lowest marked price so questioned if it was 30% off £2.09 to be told no however they are 40% off but the signs haven't been updated so definately worth asking.0

if you want a quantity of slabs please dont be afraid to make an offer on the number you want or better still to take the lot from them
i offered £50 on 126 slabs last week and got them also just been tonight and got 98 pot plants (ALL WHAT WAS THERE) for my local school for £2 as they need to clear every thing so it makes sense to get rid of a job lot0 -
