New Home Bargains shop opening in Prestwich after shop change

The Quality Save shop, near the Longfield Centre, will be reopened as a Home Bargains store after just over a week's worth of renovations.

The store, which closed on Friday, September 1, will open at 8am with a new look, freezers and a “great Halloween section” according to store manager, Dan Bond.

He said: “Tomorrow (Saturday) will be the grand opening of the Home Bargains and the transition has been very successful.

“We have kept all the Quality Saver staff on with us and believe this changeover will be great for the community.”

A “grand store opening” will take place at 8am to allow customers the opportunity to be the first to look around the renovated interiors.

Dan said: “We now have a freezer and chiller section which will be great for convenience.

“There is also a great Halloween section.

“We have a fantastic team and are excited to open in Prestwich town centre after just over a week of refurbishing the store.”
