Advantages: Lots of low low prices.

Disadvantages: Looks a bit dull and grotty outside.

Home and Bargains has only just come to our town. I have used it before but further afield, now I have only to travel three miles and Im there. Its a belting little shop (well biggish shop) with a massive selection of everyday items plus furniture (ie:-shelves, computer desks, bathroom cupboards and lots lots more). Usually these are in flatpack form but the prices are amazingly affordable and the quality not bad at all. I am sitting typing this review on a H&B computer desk and its every bit as stylish and well built as its much more expensive rivals.

I spent a lovely hour or two today erecting and using my brand new stand-in greenhouse (clear tent and frame style). Its absolutely amazing and only cost me £l9.99. It has four large shelves and zip-up each side doorway that can be rolled and held back with ties on hotter days. I have been in it today and enjoyed every single minute of it (probably because it was such a bargain price and I have always wanted a greenhouse). I now await with eager anticipation the first signs of life in the 25 trays of veg and salad seeds I have sown today. OOOOH! its chickens next. Going very green in my old age.

Going back to Home and Bargain. There is a wide range of toys, not just tat but known names like Mattel and other such household names. The toys in this section are amazingly cheap compared to other stores and is an excellent place for mums to buy birthday presents for their offsprings constant party invitations. I dont know about you but my grandchildren seem to go to a party at least 3-4 times a month! It can get a little expensive to say the least.

They do manage to sell just about everything, tools, bedding, slippers, socks, gardening needs, dried and silk flowers, pictures, lamps, bathroom accessories etc etc etc! I went again today and got extra things for the new greenhouse. Some plant labels, compost, a dibber and plant ties. The bill came to £4.25. I rest my case!

So, friends, if you havent tried Home and Bargain yet and you have one to hand, dont be put off by the look of the place, its not decked in the window like the posher stores but you will most certainly find a bargain here.

Oh forgot to add, cat food, dog food, human tinned food, biscuits, sweets, books, you name it, they'll have it. Happy mooching!

Summary: Would always look here first if I needed anything.
