What about Maplins in town, if youve already been to the one in Hillsborough (or vice versa)

Avoid maplins at all cost

Bardwells is THE only place to go

maplins used to be ok you could ask any of the staff for anything from zener diode to a bridge rectifier and they would know what you meant, now you ask them for a 13 amp 3 pin plug and they look at you blankly

Argos does do a cassette adapter


They are more expensive than the one at maplins, but they are better.

The reason that they are better? They actually WORK!

What exactly do you need it for - Ipod or MP3 player?

There are better alternatives than a cassette adaptor whose quality is usually quite poor.

Darn good for loads of odds and ends - car washing stuff, the home cleaning to cheap electrical stuff etc. After buying my house I remember spending about £100 on odds and ends and turning up at the supermarket till trolly totally full, but without a single item of food :D
