    If there is someone on here that works for Adams that could let us know, it would be really helpful. Especially any adams shops in northern ireland that are doing this, thanks :D

    Part of me wishes our local store would close....but then I change my mind as I have over £100 in vouchers. Not sure I could use them all in one go if its fill a bag for £5. Even if I do take into account the next 10 years and my nephew.

    Suppose one way to find out if your local store/s is/are closing is to give them a ring and ask. Can't hurt.

    How cool is that, and I live in Ipswich.

    Cheers :j
  • If anyone lives near Ipswich, and is going in, could you possibly see if they have any spiderman costumes to fit a 12 year old. My friend sponsers a mute boy in India, apparently he's crazy about spiderman but you can't get the costume over there. There's a mutual friend popping over to India for a holiday next month. If any one can help you'll be doing a disabled lad in a third world country a good turn. (I got my nephew one from Adam's (he's 4) just before christmas!) I'll remburse the cost.
