Bit of Bad Rep – We’re Sorry

We managed to organise a half price rug sale for the last 10 days in February – Yay!!!,

But, due to the huge interest from all our lovely customers, we sold out of all our rugs for online sales on Saturday – Boo!!!.

We do, however still have a some rugs left in store, so there are still bargains to be had, along with all our sale clothing which is now also half price – YAY!!!

We would like to apologise for the inconvenience it has caused our customers that ordered rugs on the website over the weekend – you will be emailed with a token gesture to apoloise.

Within this year we will be linking our stock levels with ourwebsite to avoid this happening again.

Sorry :-)
