    Any ideas on Littlehampton (West Sussex) Focus store? - will this be Wickes too?


    There was something in last weeks littlehampton gazette saying that the focus store has applied for planning permission for M&S to sell food in the store?? Watch this space :)

    Evening all, Was informed that the Inverness store will commence a 20% off sale tomorrow, with the store closing in 4 weeks. The sale will increase in percentage, nearer to the closing date. It will not be taken over by any other business, and the unit will remain empty when it is vacated.

    I just went to my local focus store for the sale, and i''m sorry to say it was rubbish and i haven't bought anything :(

    Hardly anything was reduced, there was just the odd sign up saying 25% off lighting, 20% off garden furniture etc etc.. nothing on the stuff i would have wanted like curtain poles, and kids stuff.
    I wandered if you just got a nice surprise when you got to the checkout with your items, but i was too scared to take them lol, i like to know what i'm paying before i choose!

    I'm gonna see what luck other people have and maybe go back in the next couple of days.

    I'm sorry for all you losing your jobs xxx
    :starmod: May all your wishes come true! :starmod:

    I did see B&M are now in Bletchley (near Milton Keynes) so looks like they are moving south!!

    May be they will manage to sell my front door to someone else when I've already paid £350.00 for it. :(
