VAT increase - Boooooo!

As you are probably already aware, the government have increased VAT to 20% from Jan 2011.  We have made the decision to swallow the extra VAT charge and keep prices the same, one because it keeps prices for customers down, and two because all the prices would look really weird with 2.5% extra on top!!

It was refreshing to find a place where I could finally locate laces for my Karimore walking shoes.Even the shop I brought them from didn't carry laces so I was forced to use shoe laces that weren't up to the job. The laces supplied are exactly as described, hard wearing and colourful. Delivery was quick, no hesitation in giving a full recommendation

I searched high and low on the high street for fat laces and could find none! Now i have found 'Big Laces' the search is over. Thank you for a great product, excellent delivery and value for money!!
