    I agree, DD came back with a big bag full of back to college stuff for kitchen, bathroom etc and paid next to nothing!

    DD said it was like Hypervalue, but Mother disagreed - she said it was clean and well laid out (she was hyper-phobic).

    Looking forward to going.
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.
  • Buyology is more expensive than HV. And we have already seen them close a branch down in Newport that was ex HV.

    I noticed that as well :D Their customer service was better than Hyper mind - we got over charged for something and they refunded the money without a fuss. Always had a right lark when that happened with HV and they would only give credit notes.

    Didn't notice them as being much dearer rednose66. As with all places like that you just have to mind what you buy as somethings are never the bargain they seem. The OH is going back tomorrow as I want a few more of the things I got at the weekend. I'm impressed with the wool so I want to make sure I get enough in case they stop selling it :D

    Sounds like my OH. He used to hate HV with a passion. He was converted in the end :T Then they shut all the stores :rolleyes:
  • Anyone able to help with where it is in Swansea please? I have a reasonable knowledge of the place, but so far unsure of where this place is.

    I've never been (yet) .... looks like a good reason to trundle over there in the next week or so.

    Its on the Carmarthen Road in Swansea. In a big blue building next to the road in Gendros. The little industrial estate there. Near to Matalan and McD's. I'm sure someone can explain better than that :D

    Leaving swansea on the Carmarthen road - Pass matlan then next left. Its got a big sign on it facing the road. If you reach tesco's then you've missed it :D

    DH went in again and bought a load more stuff. I'm loving the place! :T

    Thanks, I should be more than able to find it now. That is the direction I am coming from if I'm on my way into town. Thanks
