http://www.techradar.com/news/world-of- ... ce-1064386 I think someone at Maplin realised many of their customers only go there when they need something immediately, or would struggle to get it anywhere else ![]() |

Honestly, there are times I wouldn't leave the house but have to because I need something. But for some people, it may be the only chance they get for fresh air and exercise! |

Walking well over 20 miles every week and my utter hatred of the idiots who congregate in and around shops ensures I get most things delivered! ![]() |

I had to go to Maplins earlier this week. I needed a 2p DIL socket, and although I knew I had some already I simply couldn't find them. I think it was 40p in the shop. I came home and instantly found my stash exactly where they were supposed to be, so that was £2 worth of dinasor fosil and an hour of my life wasted... Friendly and helpful as always, but crazy thing is they just didn't have any stock. I was going to buy a couple of them, but they only had one left. Same for the 4001 I bought "just in case" - it was the last one in the store. They didn't have any of the crystals I wanted either. My prefered suplier would have been a fraction the cost and have everything in stock, but they don't deliver in 90 minutes... |
