As a result of this well deserved nomination the RNLI will be fund raising at the event.

A great choice, but I can't help wondering why such a store feels the need for such an opening ceremony, it is only a discount home and food retailer, of course the cynic in me says it's for the free advertising.
However I hope he has a wonderful experience and the RNLI make a fortune in donations.

I wonder how this will affect the bed shop in the Charlton Centre, I suspect badly but hope not.

Hopefully not too much I have used the one in the Charlton Centre twice, delivered same day and old bed disposed of. A lot of people won't bother going all the way to Whitfield.

Looked at Benson's website and they have 270 branches nationwide, If and when I next purchase a bed I will stick with our local stockist.

Bensons tv ads really wind me up,they advertise a bed say for £299 and then it comes up in the corner that the headboard and matress are not included,why not just give a price with a choice of matresses and headboards and be done with it.Those ads really make me mad.
