    I wish Bath had a Wilko's or some other cheap shop. We've very recently got a Poundland but generally nowhere to get cheap craft resources

    Talking of bargains - I've just been to Asda Living where they had clearance shelves selling items for 20p......... so I've bought 6 Disney Princess colouring sets with felt pens, and 6 Spiderman colouring sets, as well as various Birthday banners, packets of balloons and bunting sets too - all for the grand sum of £3.80!

    Pop down the motorway to Swindon as all we seem to have in our centre is bargain shops - hence we shop outside of Swindon most of the time

    I agree there Chatterbox, I think 3 £1 shops are a bit extreme, and wilkos is just confusing and not at all well organised. Hello from a minder just over the border

    I think a good toyshop is much needed in Swindon and soo many good places it can go, I tend to go to Cheltenham and the Entertainer if I want toys
