    Adams in Barnsley are offering a discount card - you get 10% off for a few months instead of Nectar - might have to ask for it though !

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I have seven pounds of vouchers to spend still, better go in tomorrow and see what I can use them on. Thanks for the tip off.

  • dont know if its me personaly but found adams clothes poor quality. sainsburys tu clothing much better and lovely quality on a par with marks and sparks for durability and very stylish. you can earn nectar points and they often have money off leaflets instore and great sales. I find the nectar scheme hard to earn points on though.
    :j I sometimes give myself admirable advice, but am incapable of taking it.

    Adams originally owned TU Childrenswear (Sainsbury's) and also MiniMode Childrenswear(Boots), TU were sold off late last year to Exel group who were then subject to a merger takeover by DHL.

    Mini Mode and Adams have now been brought by Country Casuals, leaving only the debt of Adams to be liquidated.

    So you can't really comapre TU and Adams as it all comes from the same factory.

    Beat me to it, just what I was gonna say and also, I find boots and adams clothes all shrink fairly quickly. And that they're a "small size" compared with tescos or next which seem more right for my DD and always have a bit of room for growth too. Adams stuff tends to only last my daughter a couple of months then too small!
