Never go at weekends
Never go in kids' school holidays
Make sure you have an idea of what you want by looking online and in their catalogue
Don't worry about parking near the entrance if you can carry the stuff you brought
Oh and bring your own bags.

They have some nice cheap things and some crappy cheap things. Problem is, the tulipey stuff is always there but they change the more upmarket stock very frequently. I was there once and a guy was trying to get a replacement cupboard door for a kitchen he'd bought 6 months previous, only the range had been discontinued and no spares could be had .....
