I get a high from a really good session in there, but an not sure how much money I'm actually saving as I end up with so many "bargains"! I spent £23 there today & I only went there to give DS a trip out in his pushchair & get some loo rolls!

I love it too!

I go so i dont spend much money, but everything is so cheap i just keep adding things to my basket and end up spending more than i would if i had gone to a more expensive shop Smile and most of it is clutter i can do without, i need to learn to resist a bargain Blush

Ooh no, YANBU. I end up coming away with all sorts of random ingredients that I'll never use, but they're SO cheap.

Tis fab, I agree. Between Home Bargains and The Works I can easily buy more than I can carry for a few quid.

Found some very cheap great stationery/children's fancy pencils etc in Wilkinsons at the moment too - have stocked up for random gifts/ChristmasBlush

I have 5 within 5 miles of my home. I went on the HB website & put my postcode in. How devoted is that?

9 months + 3 weeks ago I bought two pregnancy tests from home bargains & they both came up negative.

Guess how I know exactly how long ago that was. I've not bought anything there since...

Oh bloody hell - I have to go and see if I have one near me now!!

ChippingIn · 09/08/2010 00:29

Phew - nearest one 62 miles....

Can now resist the urge Grin

YANBU. You can get all sorts of bits and bobs there, plus loads of discontinued things.

They had fab cupcake stands at my HB yesterday - v annoying as I'd spent £13 on a near identical one from Lakeland last year!
