School uniform / woolworths

Options
Woolworths online have some good priced uniform bits!

e.g girls open neck blouses, aged 13 /14yrs pack of 3 £4.80.
I really struggle to buy these and often have to pay the inflated school shop prices!

Several bits very cheap for smaller children
e.g boys blue short sleeved shirts pack of 3 £1.60 / white £3.20

I cant post a link , apologies.

Ps, if its of any interest to anyone fed up of paying too much for school logo endorsed items, Tesco now do an embroidery service, at a fraction of the cost, school has to submit design, parents order online, and school receives a % back from tesco 3 times per year. (yes I do hate paying ridiculous amounts for uniform, and no i do not work for tesco!)

    apologies i don't know how to do links... but simply type Tesco school uniforms embroidery service?

    I only found this after looking at a local business that had strangely got the contract for the secondary school uniform..I had no freedom of choice , the uniform was only available from the local MENSWEAR shop? and in turn had profited hugely.

    I don,t believe in making people rich, I believe in people having a fair choice.

    I know and understand that Tesco own soooo much, but I would rather spend my money on Tesco uniform knowing that they in turn are investing in my children's school by way of % back. Which if PTA,s organised could ensure the children directly benefit, i.e every child has access to residential trip perhaps?

    Thank you bought some bits ready and picking up at a shop just up the road from me for free, 17 quid and got jumpers, blouses and trousers, already got my little ones hush puppies on a deal. Just need to take her jumpers for the badges to be put on but still works out much cheaper.

  • Don't forget Sainsbury's, I was in store yesterday. Had packs of 2 polo shirts, boys and girls, for £2.00 and Pleat Fronted Skirts pack of 2 £3.00. Loads of other bits and pieces, but only looking for my granddaughter.

    TU have a further 25% off this weekend, so quite a few bargains to be had. Also quite a lot of the sale stuff, which is marked as half price is going though cheaper than that plus a further 25% off.
