Also a loop videotape of the option 3 advert which used to go out for Rumbelows.
I remember Rumbelows having a shop in Stockport town centre, but don't remember my parents shopping there, Comet seemed to be their usual shop for anything electrical.

Rumbelows managed to keep a high profile with their ads & sponsoring the league cup, but I understand the were always a loss leader for EMI, which probably explains why they were a casualty of the early 1990s recession.
