    If theres a retailer you particularly want to work for it is worth just asking them, in my old job we never advertised as we had loads of people just asking anyway so filled vacancies that way. ;)

    LOL well I get BB sense of humour :o possibly that isn't saying much though. :p;)

    IA- really pleased you turned your club points into deals for a trip out. I'm sure I've also suggested to you a free course with free childcare. That's how I started at my local YWCA women's centre. They do all sorts of different courses and a lot aimed at young (under 25) mums. There is also the out of town sort of shops which take xmas staff on. I once had a job in Matalan, as well as the supermarkets to try. Good luck with your search. :beer:
