Yes - some stores do not have some items but these seem to be
regional - such as scotland or the midlands and they usually add
'regional' in the flyer/web site.
You cannot buy online - you cannot even call the store!
They have special offers roughly twice per week and the offers can be
almost anything - we bought a load of camping equipment, Pauls fishing
gear and a GPS.
The web site only shows *next* thursday and sunday. If you are on thier
newletter list you should get one or two emails per week.
Stuff like 99p low energy bulbs or ink carts are usually gone in a
few hours - I have seen a big crowd some sundays 1/2 hr before the store
opens just to buy something that appears to be priced insanely cheap.
Take bags as they have *always* charged for bags, there are *no
baskets* and trolleys require a pound coin.
Word of warning - Not everything is "cheap" and some things such as the
cordless keyboards are complete crap.
Saying this our GPS and car stereo's are all working flawlessly and
were bought quite a few years ago.
If you cannot get one ask and I will grab one from one of my 'local'.
