    yes, unfortunately such is life.

    the store is still open and supposedly will be until all JJB stock is sold from all their other stores. Be prepared to queue for an hour unless you catch it at the right time.

    Good luck. I went to the Sprucefield store last night. Got there around 6:45pm and was turned away at the door because "we need to be closed for 9". I would imagine, and maybe I'll be wrong, but I would imagine weekends would see even larger crowds descend on the three remaining stores.

    The guy on the door who was turning people away did say there was still a warehouse to be emptied and that he was expecting the sale to go on for another couple of weeks.

    Well I did go to the Antrim store yesterday and picked up couple European club football tops for my teenager. There were still loadsa Arsenal, Chelsea and Ranger's tops in stock. Also got husband couple pairs adidas trainers and adidas bottoms. Whilst queuing, a lorry pulled up and it was a case of people grabbing items from staff as they were entering the store. There were a no. of adult and kids bikes, roller blades and sledges on this delivery and also footwear. I managed to get a great bike for my 6 yr old for £45 and will be putting away for xmas. They were still carting in stock when I left. Probably is best being in the store at the right time. Also at the checkout, there were signs that they were not accepting First Trust or Ulster Bank cards.

    I went to the Lisburn store this morning. It was fairly busy, and queues looked ridiculously long.

    There was more stock than I expected, lots of football jerseys etc, all 50% off. People were coming out with bag fulls, so I guess theres plenty of good stuff, but be prepared to scavenge and queue! I just found it a hassle having to look through every rack to find something as there didn't seem to be any particular order. After ten minutes I sacked it.

    Worth a look if your after some cheap xmas presents maybe.

    Yes, its still open and still getting stock. I was in yesterday at lunchtime and there was still plenty of trainers and football shirts. Best of all there was no queue!!

    Good deals on exercise machines at the minute. I think it can be hit and miss as to whats out when you get there.
