Do they have any in the south?

I've heard they can be a bit hit and miss, and a bit of a jumble sale, but I'd like to go and see one.

Thanks

    We're in Southampton, and nearest one we travel to is in Swindon, near the outlet village.
    It can be a bit 'hit and miss', though when its a hit we don't pay more than a couple of quid for stuff. Plus with this store near the outlet village its never a wasted journey.

    This is the link to our post last May when they had fantastic bargains and will go same time this year http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=193567
    Store details are now on the store finder http://www.matalan.co.uk/pages/stores

    My son has just started work in one, in Wolverhampton.

    Despite having lived in Wolverhampton all my life until 2004, I had no idea it was a clearance store - didn't know they had them!

    You can get some real bargains. My son got some trousers, a pullover and a tee-shirt for £12.

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton
