and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
Daily Bargains, in King Street, has been closed for about six months, but will soon be ready to welcome customers back following some refurbishment work.
The shop, which specialises in selling foods and household goods at a discounted price, was forced to close after the building was deemed unsafe due to the joists rotting away and the floor caving in.

Customers have been desperate for the store to restart trading, with frequent messages to the store’s Facebook page saying they miss the shop and asking when it will re-open.
Manager Masum Mustafa said: “We play a vital part to the community. We have customers who shop with us that can’t afford certain foods from supermarkets and rely on us to buy treats. Parents who struggle love shopping with us as we save up to 50% for packed lunches for their kids for school.
"Especially during school holidays, when kids are off school, they shop with us to help with feeding their kids.”
