A quick visit to Manchester Fopp.

It's like some fiendish place that makes you spend money. Everywhere you look there are stands with cult labels at mouthwatering prices. I easily spent £50, could have been £150 no problem.

Thank you.

Suspiria was in a pile at the counter so got it due to the Newman / Jones commentary which should be fascinating to hear.

I always limit myself to a maximum spend of £20 whenever I visit Fopp

If that means I have to go back the next day, so be it!

It honestly wasn't worth going for that amount. Not with having to drive to Manchester, pay £3 to park for an hour then rush around like a blue arsed fly.

Kudos on your restraint, and some very good additions to your collection.

Nice haul! I'm so glad I don't live in Manchester I'd be broke.

Yes, me too.

There's a full isle of BFI goodies. A massive Network display with everything at £3, a Shameless stand, a large Arrow display. So much movie madness it hurts.

Makes no sense to me that Fopp seem to get all these awesome promotions and yet there are so few stores in comparison to HMV who I believe own Fopp.
