    Sounds like an idea which wont work: not in the UK anyway (biike Best Buy working in the US but not the UK). I don't think it will work because no one really knows what it will sell, products which "haven't seen the light of day", I saw the £250 limit and thought it would be a low amount then read that "items worth at least £2" (or words to that effect) meaning items will be I'd imagine fairly low in value to begin with.

    Maybe it could work, for people who have a fair bit of money and wouldn't really bother too much about losing £60 if there was nothing they wanted to buy, but personally for me, £60 is a huge amount and for comparison, more then I am able to spend even on gifts this year at Christmas let alone on gamble incase this store stocks £60 worth of stock (let along £250) that I could find potentially useful and mean I don't then have to spend that same amount in a Supermarket.

    Could be of use to someone I suppose, just don't think its something that suits me personally.

    Is this a grabit
  • I think if you live local and they have good selection of products, but if ethey only have half dozen products a month in store, or items things you just would not buy could be bit poor.
