Focus DIY Closing Down (merged)

missyg_3

Focus Woking: 10% off everything in store but other markdowns too, such as further 10% off all lighting.

Dumfries has signs up saying closing down. But staff advise that it is to become a Wickes.

Friday was 10% of everything.

Some of the screws, nails etc. had stickers marking them down by about 50%, but nothing much else that I could see, apart from a few lawn mowers etc. Maybe "own brand" stuff to be cleared?

Cheers,

presumably there are other stores who are just closing and have not been sold, as mine (Poole) isnt listed?

Of the original 52 stores that were announced back at the beggining of the thread, only 12 of them where sold in that batch of stores that I listed.

Wakefield has now closed. Eastbourne went this weekend.

You will find that your store in Poole is referred to being changed to a Homebase "Mannings Heath" is the one in Poole, as it is located on Mannings Heath Road as you drive to Tower Park

Sorry - has Eastbourne already shut? I've been following this thread waiting for the discounts but it looks like I missed it! Oh Dear!
