A MAJOR outdoor fashion chain has launched an “everything must go” sale before closing one of its branches.

Trespass’ store in the Silverburn shopping centre, in Glasgow, Scotland will be shutting for the final time over the coming weeks.

The retailer sells ski wear, waterproof jackets, fleeces, festival accessories, walking boots and camping gear.

Signs have been put up in the shop window telling passersby that a 60% closing down sale has started.

The black and yellow signage reads: “Closing down. Everything must go.”

The Sun has contacted Trespass for comment.

Other recent closures in the area include  Angelique Lamont Bridal and Bridesmaids and popular Glaswegian nightclub The Shed.

It is not yet known what will replace the Tresspass store in the Silverburn shopping centre.

The Silverburn shopping centre has seen some other major changes in recent months.

Prominent brands that have recently opened at the centre, including AllSaints and Polestar.

And Mango opened its doors over the summer which further strengthened the fashion offer.

Kingpin Bowling is also set to join the line-up later this year, bolstering Silverburn’s leisure offer.

We also told how Cinnabon opened a new branch in Silverburn on Friday.

David Pierotti, General Manager at Silverburn, said: “We have been working hard to secure brilliant brands that we know people want to see and we’re so pleased that Cinnabon is the latest to join our lineup.

“It will complement our existing stores and restaurants, whilst giving people yet another new reason to visit us.

“We know that it will prove a massive hit with guests and look forward to the opening.”

More Trespass closures

 Trespass, which runs around 170 UK branches, confirmed last summer it would pull down the shutters on half a dozen branches.

Stores shut in Chesterfield and Workington while others in Canterbury and Solihull were also earmarked for closure.

In recent weeks, Trespass is closed its store in St Johns Precinct, Liverpool, after signs were placed in the window.

It is not the only outdoor clothing retailer to shutter branches across the UK.

Go Outdoors closed one of its shops in North Staffordshire in April with locals left gutted.

Closing down signs also went up in a Millets store in December last year.

It came after the Millets stores in Inverness and Mansfield shut their doors for good.

Some retailers have closed a few branches here and there for various reasons, like when a store lease has come to an end.

Other examples of one-off rather than widespread closures is when there are changes in the area, like a shopping centre closing.

In some cases a shop will shut if there are not enough shoppers in the area, but sometimes it may relocate to another place that’s busier nearby.

Some chains have faced tougher conditions though, forcing them to shut dozens of stores, or all of them in the worst case.

Tweeted by Martin Lewis and shared on the Money Saving Expert (MSE) website, the pharmacy chain is trying to get people to sign up for its No7 beauty Advent calendars wait-list.

In return, they’re offering 30 per cent off No7 products – but the deal is only valid until 11:59pm tonight.

Those keen on snapping it up can fill in their details, and a code should appear on the same page as the sign-up box.

The code can be used on most No7 items, with a few exclusions.

Savvy shoppers can also maximise the discount by combining it with items that are offered in the three-for-two deal.

It means the first two items can be taken 30 per cent off, with the third free.

Using the example MSE gives, customers could buy:

• 1x Future Renew serum*,  50ml – £30.06 with the code, normally £42.95
• 1x Future Renew night cream*, 50ml – £24.46 with the code, normally £34.95
• 1x Future Renew day cream*,  50ml – free, normally £34.95

That would in total cost £54.42 – a huge £58.33 (52 per cent) off the normal £112.84.

But that’s not all.

Some items are half-price, in the three-for-two deal, and the additional 30 per cent can still be taken off.

In a money-saving trifecta, customers could for example claim:

• 1x Limited Edition lipstick* – £4.53 with the code, was £6.47, normally £12.95
• 1x Limited Edition lip glaze*, 3.3ml – £3.48 with the code, was £4.97, normally £9.95
• 1x Limited Edition lip liner*– free, was £3.97, normally £7.95

In total, those three items add up to just £8.01 instead of the normal price of £30.85 – a colossal £22.84 (74%) saving.

Customers are always urged check whether there is still stock and keep an eye out for other deals on the way.

B&Q shoppers have been hot-footing it down to their local store to bag a hot tub accessory which is ideal for the chiller autumn temperatures.

The homewares store is currently selling a “CleverSpa Grey Square Canopy” for just 80p each in a clearance sale, with the original retail price being £15.

That’s a huge reduction of 95 per cent.

The polyester canopy which fits over the top of a CleverSpa hot tub, shielding you from the elements, measures 75.5cm by 187cm.

However, the bargain seems to have been hugely popular already as currently B&Qs website says “this product is currently out of stock”.

According to the product description: “It will keep you cool on sunny days with 50+ UPF protection, keep you sheltered from the elements and provide you with a little privacy too!”

The canopy also has a mesh panel which “ensures that the wind doesn’t lift the canopy once in place”.

It also says the product can be easily cleaned with a wet soft cloth.

For comparison, B&Q is selling a “Lay-Z-Spa black and grey dome spa canopy” for £150.

We recommend you search on the B&Q website to see if the product is in a store near you, before making the decision to buy online.

To find your nearest outlet use the Store Locator tool on their website.

It’s often useful to shop for outdoor items such as these at the end of the summer season, as they are much less in demand so are sold at much lower prices.

When searching for the perfect item, be sure to also shop around using the search tool and filter functions on a range of sites.

The price toggle when surfing websites is perfect for setting your own budget and shopping within a particular range.

The “sort by” tool can also be your best friend, allowing you to view the lowest priced items first, and spot all the best deals.

Comparing prices between websites also helps you make sure you’re getting the right deal for the right product.

How else to save when shopping

To luck out on future B&Q savings, keep your eyes peeled for reduced labels and make use of community social media platforms. 

By joining Facebook groups such as the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, you might be first in the race when scouting for bargains in your local area. 

Also remember to make use of seasonal bargains, and search retailers websites to compare prices, to see which deals on products are available near you.
