    A few glitchy Tresemme products are back in stock on Mr Shoes.

    Shampoos and hair sprays and don't forget wish list trick might work for those showing OOS.

    Thanks ILTS I have a selection to pick up today for me and my girls. Wonder how heavy a few of those 900ml bottles are? :eek:

    If anyone has a 'my local' store near them, they are going into administration, and everything apart from baby milk and nappies is being reduced by 50% tomorrow, and 70% on Sunday, including alcohol and tobacco. Never good to hear of places going into administration, so if you go, a nice smile to make the staffs day a little easier.

    Thanks to HUKD

    That hasn't lasted long at all. That said, if M couldn't make a profit on the smaller stores with their buying power (yes I know, and greater overheads), then how an independent private equity could is hard to understand.

    That is magnificent. Must have cost a fortune to build. I was looking at building just a single pizza oven, and its just a load of hassle, getting the clay, and the bases etc. I dont mind doing the labour and the brickwork etc. but the hassle of getting all the 'exotic' materials needed was just not worth it.

    That is amazing though, a thing of beauty.
