    Everything 50% today

    No great loss, was always seriously overpriced.
    50% off has probably brought them down to normal prices now.

    Dunno CreepingDeath, Homebase is generally a good bit cheaper than Woodies / Atlantic. Had some serious bargains on plants there over the years too.

    Shop was always quiet though, I'd say they made a loss from day 1...

    they told me at point of sale that i had up until saturday to return everything. I didnt make it up so rang Homebase in Gullivers retail park on sunday and asked and they initially said No, i couldnt return my items to their branch, then after I explained the receipt didnt mention this anywhere, they said it was fine.

    and when i went to do the refund, the sales assistant didnt actually comment at all.:)

    Anyone know if there is anything left at this stage? Looking for a new mixer shower and wondering if there is any point going over for a nosey on the off chance of a bargain.

    was there 2 days ago and there was not a lot left at all. the second floor of teh shop was closed and all remaining stock was on the near empty shelves and on pallets on the floor.

    There was some shower equipment left but I didn't take too much notice.
    If you are looking for something very specific I think you would be lucky to get it at this stage.

    NOt sure what part of Ireland you are in but on the facebook they have a list of stores and phone numbers,

    I think the only stores that are closing are Fonthill, Carlow and Castlebar so you should be able to use vouchers in any other store.

    I see Fonthill is to remain open, did it close last week and is it to reopen ? I presume most of the stock was sold off in the closing down sale!


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Oh that's good news! The place was entirely cleared out and closed last week, I was wondering why the lights were still on...

    Sign outside on Saturday " Great new store opening soon"

    Place was totally cleared out before they closed.

    On the readio earlier 20% off I think was for the weekend, but not 100% sure.

    EDIT: Listened to it again, the 20% is on Friday.
