Hello Sue ,

Strangly enough our town seems to be bucking the trend at the moment and at long last our high street is coming back to life.........a walk up there was very dismal a few years ago ( I counted 11 empty shops ) but now there are only a couple of vacant shops.

I hope it dosn't get to gloomy in your area.

We have a fantastic one called Home Sense and it is the household division of TKMax and they have the most wonderful things there at the most ridiculous prices. Different stuff coming in every day - all sorts - an Aladdins Cave of really must have items

We have something similar in my local town of Bridgwater.
It's called Seconds Ahead but I don't think it is one of a chain and I noticed today that it's closing down.

I spotted several shops either closing or gone recently. It looks like the credit crunch is hitting here.

You might have something like them Ann but in a different name.

They seem to buy up the stock that other shops can't shift and then sell it at a much more reasonable price..........lables cut off the clothes so you can't see where they came from originally etc.

I was wondering how many folk on here have a Q.D.shop in their area ?

I think they are only in the East of England........or am I wrong ?
