Julian Graves, everything half price.

Noticed this in Ayr this morning. Manageress thinks it is nationwide. She was only notified late on Friday, and says it's for a week from today. I checked their website, but there's nothing on there about it.
Hope someone else can confirm this.

    Thanks for this, they too tend to hide a lot of the good/expensive stuff & claim it is sold out an hour after the shop has opened, will check mine out ASAP

    The Ashford (Kent) branch has had everything half price since before Christmas. There are signs up saying that they are not closing down - must be fed up of people asking. They certainly don't hide the expensive stuff either - I know, 'cos I keep buying it! - Well it is half price!

    Their big bags of luxury nuts are superb -much fresher tasting than supermarket ones and much cheaper per Kg, although they seem expensive when buying 1Kg at a time. I am also addicted to the Japanese Rice crackers.

    I also noticed on my receipt that last time I bought bags of banana chips (my kids love them sprinkled on their breakfast cereals) they went through half price and also BOGOF - there were no signs about it in the shop.

    Thanks for that tip - made me look and found that there is now a JG store in MILTON KEYNES and even better as you anticipated everything half price signs up all over the store!

    They said the offer runs until FRIDAY here in MK. The store has been open 3 months - and is in the Food Centre between Waitrose/JSainsburys on the opposite side to the car-park (the side hardly anyone walks along).

    Did slightly take the icing off the cake in that 'new' chocolate covered macadamia nuts rang up at 99p whereas shelf-label said £1.49. Apparently that was their offer price LAST week, now £1.99 (sel under the £1.49 sel). Refunded the 25p when I stood my ground.

    The Leeds Merrion branch has been half price for the last 6/10 months (not entirely sure, but a long time). Good shop, I can thoroughly recommend the balti spice in packs :-)

    This is not every store nationwide.

    I went in two different towns with a Julian graves. One had this offer and the other didn't.

    The one that didn't had this offer on about 3 months ago and only over the weekend.

    So ring before you make a special journey.


    Yours
