Very little when I had a look.


Strange.

In three branches in West London I've looked in, they've still got plenty of stock.

Although any real bargains may have been cherry picked

Their windows are plastered with two posters.

"Up to 20% off" and "Everything Must Go".

But as newspaper articles have pointed out even at 20% off, a lot of their stuff is
cheaper elsewhere - with sellers who might be able to honour guarantees.

While if it really is "Everything Must Go" no clearance specialist or auction sales
would offer them anything anywhere near to 80% retail. So theyl'll have to move
on the 20%. off.

Glasgow, St Enoch now showing 'up to 60% off'.
