Closing Down Sale - Stationery Box

munygrabr

Funny you should mention that P4Tel, I saw a binder mechanism in my local store and did think it would be useful for binding uni stuff for submission. I think it was about a tenner give or take.

My store expects to close in 'about 8 weeks'. Some stock has 50% off, but so far most of the reductions are 20% or 30%.

Thank you for your patience, whilst we restructure this website

Apparently, you can access the site via http://www.stationerybox.co.uk/index.php but parts appear to be a little out-of-date:

I went in about a week ago and was after a cross-cut shredder (not the most exciting thing to buy!) but they had lots of stuff left, and reductions varied "up to 50%" depending on what it was.

As time goes on i think reductions may get bigger and apply to most items.
