    Any joy in finiding somewhere to get these wooden hangers with the sliding clips on bottom?

    Had a click and collect order for tesco's for the hangers. Went to pick them up and they had substituted suit hangers for skirt hangers. :(

    Back to searching.

    Was chatting to my mate who is towards the end of his training and said shirt hangers themselves are fine as the trousers already come on their own hangers

    This boots bulling and standard of ironing are my biggest concerns heading into this! The list by the way fairly begins to add up in cost I've fairly taken a knock out of my wallet. Considering got my last wage in the old job last week could be fairly tight few weeks.

    Sadly the ones I got subbed were SKIRT hangers, not even shirt hangars.. flat bar with clips.. no use for anything with shoulders.

    /edit

    I suspect there's some stock managers in all manner of stores wondering why the hell wooden suit hangers with clips have been very popular over the last year.

    I picked up wooden hangers with trouser clips in TK Maxx, but I know it can be hit or miss in those places. If anyone is still looking pe kit check out sportsdirect, I picked up my stuff today for next to nothing and its as close to plain black as you could get.
