  • cannot believe Telford homeplus maangere said a guy had 8 trolley loads and wanted more but was told to leave for others
    both telford stores said laptops went for £40/£99 washing machines for £30 and some toys had mearly 95% off but some people are just plain greedy

    More bargains today in Du**ington. Hello to the fellow MSE'er that I saw in there clearing the shelves of toasters, pop up tents and beauty electrical items! :)

    I didn't have much luck with cameras, hard drives, toasters (all gone), kettles etc

    I managed to grab:

    Bouncy Castle - SEL had been redued all the way down to £6, scanned at £2.50
    Pop Up Beach Tent thing - £3

    And our 2 biggest finds.....

    Fisher Price Precious Planets Cot Mobile (with the picture show) - £27
    Tomy Musical Melody Maker - SEL said reduced to £18 from £40 or something, and scanned at £3 :eek:

    I did my MSE duty for the day and let a couple of other people with kids know about the Musical Melody Maker, and they went back and grabbed one as well.

    I then used the £10 Morrisons voucher from the Mirror - bargain!

    Not sure if anyone else has had trouble, but the Morissons voucher scanned at £3 for me; had to argue my case to get it corrected!

    Was there any of the baby bits left?
  • Only the moon sand for £2 at po*l extra, scanned a trolley full and all correct prices :(

    Yes, I made sure I left some. Loads of the cot mobiles (the one that is listed as more expensive, there are 2 on the shelf), and one of the Tomy musical things.

    Tesco play kitchen @ £2
    Tesco tea set @ 50p
    Littlest pet shop figures @ 60p each
    Moshie monster @ £1
