Everything must go. Not sure why it must all go. They’ll be selling the same books in February whether they do or not. Some of the discounts are even more discounted. You might even save enough to poo over the road to the dreadful buffet mania. The shop has two floors. Books mostly downstairs. Good art department. You might find a more interesting selection of books over the road in WH Smith.

Great budget store. Not the latest titles and a lot seem to be aimed at children though search through the shelves there are some good finds.
Great discounts on stationery. Some of the kids toys seem like cheap tat but are priced accordingly. Staff are very friendly and helpful. There is also a loyalty card scheme for even more discounts to work towards.

The Works is one of my favourite shops. So cheap and there are some real gems to be found in there! Caters for young and old alike.
I like the crafty section (I'm getting into sewing and I already study art at DMU, so occasionally pop in to check out pens, pencils, brushes and sketchbooks), and the book options can be great, I collect travel and nature photography books and The Works is my go-to shop for these.
They do other bits and bobs like colouring books, puzzles and games too, with some seasonal toys and such for the kids.

Used to be a Brilliant shop and was in there most days, then it was closed for a refit and when it re-opened it somehow became a little child's shop and apart from that section there is not much for people over 12 to buy!! And also looks like it's very cheaply made! All I can say is the refit and new stock has changed this from a great shop to a place I havnt stepped foot in this place for a long time now!

When visiting this branch I was rather disappointed. There isn't the usual great variety of books. Although the discounts are excellent as usual, the stock is heavily aimed at children.

GReat place for bargains on lego books much cheaper then WHSmith and it's great when they have sales as the price goes down and they have more stuff downstairs and staff are friendly and helpful and I go there a lot and it's worth the trip with a reward card as well and for me I love the lego Star Wars books for mini figures and it helps me build up on my army of empire for my lego projects
