    Good night all, I've taken advantage too much of HC's offer to get the drinks in, don't think he'll get much change from his £1 deposit in the honesty box from me tonight, I'm less than honest :rotfl:

    If you live near Telford or Staines, may be worth extra visits to your Homeplus store as T is hoping to close these down fairly quickly/as soon as they can relet the stores, but no idea of the actual timescale for this.

    They have announced that they are phasing out the whole Homeplus chain, so all stores will be gradually closed down

    "There are Home Plus stores in Bracknell, Bristol, Chelmsford, Chester, Manchester, Edinburgh, Nottingham, Preston, Southampton, Staines, Telford and Bromborough in Wirral."

    Press release http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/ALeqM5hX9RZIaF6RwsDeO3TY2-nSY1054A?docId=N0072231327309072752A

    I didn't get to Homeplus that often because it was too far away for me, but there were often bargains to be had. Very sad news for the staff at these stores.

    Oohh another plus for moving. Hope they wait for me!
    Please don't judge me. you couldn't handle half of what I've been through.

    Ahh know it well, I normally have a good walk (pub crawl !!) on a Sunday via Golfcorse - Coalbrookdale - Ironbridge

    Just glad I only have to walk DOWN this slope as going up is a bit much after a few beers !!!!

    I think our MSE Olympic Games are sorted!......

    speed scanning ......just how many penny items can you scan at self serve while the SA deals with a unexpected item in bagging area at till 4?

    speed paying.......how fast can you pay - timed from last item to receipt in hand!

    wombling (outdoor) ......how many receipts can you collect in gale force 5 ? avoid trolleys/security guards/other wombles/skateboarding teens

    wombling (indoor) aka bin diving! You have 10 seconds - grab as many as you can........avoid other customers/trouts/the more vertically challenged of us should be allowed smaller bins as health and safety risk!

    Security run around.......how many times can you get the security guard to follow you around the same aisle?! complete circles only!

    Trolley fill- fill your trolley, off to price check scanner, scan all items, put all back on correct shelves as none were 1p!

    Scanner count......how many trips can you make to the price check scanner in one visit?

    Top shelf reach!......use of other customers/staff allowed (encouraged) but extra points for style whilst balancing on a trolley!

    omg the things we do !

    I'll do the roving reporting! ;)
