"They all brought the inside of their shops outside for the general public to get a bargain."
"It was definitely an opportunity for people to come into the Mount and have a great time, on otherwise quite a quiet day."

Mrs Flemming said they would be making the Bargain Bonanza an annual event.

"It was great to see that it worked well for lots of people on Sunday, compared with Saturday with people doing sports, and work commitments."
