Hello everyone! Clearing out the stall as we leave and I've found this scarf - if it's yours please let me know so you can collect it! Many people visit my stall and help me out so I'm not sure who's it isπŸ¦‡βœ¨

it's our last day here at strange & unusual in barrow market hall, so will be your last chance for a while to pick up a few gothic bargains for up to 40% off πŸ¦‡βœ¨

11/12/2023

closed today! as this business is run by someone with chronic illnesses, the christmas period and being open six days a week can mean i need to take a day to rest and recharge. look after yourselves too, and we'll be back tomorrow from 10am πŸ¦‡βœ¨

it's unfortunate but we do have to announce - STRANGE & UNUSUAL AT BARROW MARKET HALL WILL BE CLOSING. we aren't going away forever but our physical stall just isn't financially viable for us. our last day of trading will be christmas eve, but before then we'll have a massive lucky dip sale with discounts of up to 40%. please remember this christmas that as more small businesses are forced to close their doors, supporting local and shopping in your town centre is how they can continue to remain open and thrive. thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last year, fellow traders and customers, you've been the absolute bestπŸ¦‡πŸ–€βœ¨
