Shoppers reveal how they bagged bargains worth £1,664 for £89 in closing down sales – including a £929 sofa for £40
EARLIER this year we revealed sofa shop Harveys was set to join other retailers and sadly enter administration.
And now, it look like it has happened - with prices at their still-open stores reduced to POUNDS and discounts of £889 on offer.
Following on from our story in June, people took to Facebook pages to reveal how they had swept in and grabbed undeniably good deals.
They also shared their bargains from Oak Furnitureland which is set to close some but not all shops.
One mum, on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains Facebook page, told how she picked up a lovely grey sofa, originally priced at £929 for just £40.
She told: "My absolute bargain today from Harvey’s!! £40!!!
"For everyone asking the company has gone in to liquidation.
"I walked in my local store two hours before it was due to close they reduced basically everything to £40.
"By all accounts there’s a clearance store being set up in Taunton and that’s where all the left over stock is going!!!"
But she isn't the only one who scooped a brilliant deal.
Another woman told how she managed to grab a lamp at Oak Furnitureland which originally cost £295.
She paid £15 - a saving of £280.
Another woman explained how she got a chair from the same place for £11 - and it should have cost £140.
She said: "Bargain of the century £140 in Oak Furnitureland, got it for £11."
A third man revealed he got a chest which retailed at £299.99 for £17.99
He said: "A few Oak Furnitureland clearance stores are closing Friday.
"I popped to the Cardiff store yesterday and managed to get this blanket box that’s still £299.99 online and I paid £17.79.
"Huge saving of £282.20. Definitely worth checking your local clearance stores."
