Well it started today in Barnsley. I have just fetched a new bathroom
for the gf's parents. 30% off. Other stores may have also already started so keep your eyes out for a bargain. Adam |

Is that a good price though? I've been in a few times, they were ridiculously overpriced for many things ( a single fused connector -£7.59) , although there were some nice kitchen sinks reduced from £300 to £127 2 weeks ago.

Have a look at their new web site http://everythingmustbesold.com/ Under £300 for a full bathroom suite and an electric shower. The shower was £150 2 weeks ago.

Point taken. But it is the bathroom suite that they were looking at a few months ago. -- Adam |

I could go to the local hardware store and get most stuff cheaper. It is right opposite. When Focus arrived he reckoned it was the best thing ever happened to him. |

Stock levels were more or less the same as Christmas (i.e. half the shed is walled off and empty) but instead of being Focus stock (OK, but originally stupidly over-priced) it was now all Payless stock (nasty rubbish, at any price). Discounts were 20% & 30% off, which isn't enough to bring this stock down to a sensible price, let alone a bargain. I only spent about a fiver, and that was for something that would have been .cheaper in Screwfix, but it saved me a further trip. |

The best "bargains" I could see was 20% off, but discount cards can no longer be used, so a miserable 10% discount. -- Residing on low ground in North Staffordshire |
