A spokesperson for Home Bargains said: “We know how hard all our colleagues have worked throughout the year. Being a family-run business, we recognise the importance of spending quality time with our loved ones. Therefore, we feel it is only right to support our valued store teams by giving them extended time off around Christmas and New Year.”

The Christmas time closing was agreed at the store's annual conference

Home Bargains has a store in the town centre and in Breightmet, as well as at Middlebrook Retail and Leisure Park.
