Just a note for all those grabbing online bargains from these shops. It's looking likely they'll go bust in the next few weeks. Where possible, shop in-store. If buying online, use a credit card for Section 75 protection, just in case.... :money:

Actually, it's probably the true definition of 'Quick, grab it while you can'....0

... but these retailers have all featured (in the correct sense) recently, if not currently, so just a friendly (and in my case, appreciated) warning if anyone has taken advantage of the advertised 'grabbits' but need to return items, or are indeed considering making purchases.No grabbit here
Thank you to OP!
If it's cheap, I'm cheerful!0 -
The advice about buying on a credit card is useless if the item you buy is less than £100, it is not covered under that.
The advice about using up gift cards and credit notes is excellent advice.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0 -
