    Oh dear there goes my new years resolution! Just bought lots of chocolates @ 70 % off. Pack of 4 kinder eggs 75p
  • It is definitly store dependent. I went into the Stanmore branch and apart from cards and crackers they still had everything at 50% off.

    I then went to Edgeware and they have practically everything at 70%, gifts, food, wrapping etc.
