Lucky shoppers can get their hands on prizes at the opening of a new budget retailer.

Poundstretcher will open in Bognor’s London Road at a unit that has been empty since Wilko left last September.

The discount store said the new store will bring 15 jobs to the town.

It will open at 9am on Thursday, October 17, and to celebrate Poundstretcher will be giving away £10 in-store vouchers every hour the store is open during the opening weekend.

Poundstretcher will be opened by the Mayor of Bognor, Councillor Claire Needs.

The store will sell thousands of products, including household cleaning, health and beauty items as well as food. It will also sell a range of seasonal products for Halloween and Christmas.

The opening celebrations continue over the weekend, with customers having the chance to win a £10 Poundstretcher voucher every hour the store is open, from Friday, October 18 through to Sunday, October 20.

Ian Kewin, store manager of Poundstretcher Bognor, said: “The whole team can’t wait to open the doors and welcome customers to our new store for the first time on October 17.

“Poundstretcher Bognor has something for everyone, including many of the big brands that our customers love.”
