Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake
Speaking of which, is Maplin still clinging on? I went past one on the bus the other day with some "last few days" signs on the window. Answering my own question: https://up.metropol247.co.uk/thegeek/thumbs/IMG_20180602_103742%202.jpg Not a lot left - mostly components (reels of 100 resis...

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake
Shops that sell gift cards are being asked to remove New Look and House of Fraser ones from sale. I wonder if some sort of announcement will be imminent from either company? New Look cutting 980 jobs and closing 60 stores. Seeking rent reduction on 400 other stores. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/busine...

Re: The Tesco & Other non-Morrisons Supermarket Thread
I find it odd that the addition of Argoses into Sainsburys seems to come at the expense of food ranges rather than non-food. Not on the Isle of Wight.
