    Oh no, this is going to be expensive! Hehe, I used to work by a big HB and popped in all the time, it's my favourite shop.

    Yess! I love Home Bargains but the nearest one to me is two bus rides away so costs nearly £5 to get there & back and takes hours. So unless I buy loads (and lug it home by bus) the savings don't exceed the costs in time and money.

    But 50p a small parcel delivery charge? Now you're talking, I'll be shopping there all the time now.
    Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.

    This is great news, more and more stores on moving online to keep up wit new consumer demands and with the recession shops like Home Bargains thrive....especially over coming delivery charges which puts most people off....

    They did make foray into the internet shopping business a few years ago but pulled out, food and drink arent going to be available yet according to the grocer. Hopefully this time it will be long lasting.
  • do you know why they pulled out last time? I hope they don't have to pull out for the same reason this time! i'm lucky in that i have one near me but it's only a small one so there could be different stock online :D

    according to the grocer it says they pulled out to focus on ramping up the stopre openings. They're going to focus on lrger high value products first then bring in smaller items like food etc. It also says the online side will be supplied by its £35m DC(distribution centre) in gillmoss as well the uk stores.
