History
Quality Save was founded in 1974 by Bob Rudkin. He started off with an indoor market stall in Walkden, and a small shop in Farnworth. The company opened more outlets over time.
In 2010, stores began playing a clip every fifteen minutes reminding customers of their Star Buy deals, their cheap prices in comparison to pound stores, and the company's alcohol policy. These clips end with the company's name and their slogan: Quality Save. Quality Brands “ Quality Prices. In 2012, Quality Save closed an outlet in Barnsley to open a much bigger one a few feet down the road. They also closed a temporary unit in Urmston, and opened a new one in the Eden Square Shopping Centre.
In 2015, the Middleton branch of Quality Save was closed, and a superstore was launched in the ex Tesco unit next door. It was then confirmed that their biggest ever superstore would open in the beginning of 2017 in Walkden, the town where the company was first founded on a market stall. In February 2017, the biggest ever Quality Save store was opened in Walkden Town Retail Park. This store was 22,000 cubic feet. On the 26th January 2023, Quality Save was sold to TJ Morris, owner of Home Bargains.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RGPN9M - Large scale mural of Mark E Smith, the late frontman and lyricist of The Fall, painted on the gable end wall of Chips at No8 on Clifton Road in Prestwich, Greater Manchester. The portrait shows the singer in a white open neck shirt and dark jacket, with a cigarette in his mouth, looking out from the side of the chip shop in bright sunshine beneath a clear blue sky. The image is a strong editorial stock photograph for Manchester music heritage, post-punk culture, The Fall, Prestwich, street art, public murals, local identity, fan pilgrimage and the continuing cultural afterlife of northern alternative music. The mural was created by street artist Akse P19 for Prestwich Arts Festival in 2018, after Smith's death earlier that year, and became one of the area's best known pieces of public art. The Fall emerged from Prestwich and Greater Manchester in the late 1970s and built a fierce cult reputation through abrasive post-punk sound, repetitive guitar lines, dry humour, literary references and Smith's unmistakable vocal delivery. The location adds strong northern character: a music icon painted not on a formal civic monument, but on the wall of an independent chippy in a town centre street. That setting gives the image commercial and editorial value for stories about grassroots culture, working class creativity, independent businesses, British music history, urban art, memory, fandom and the way local communities commemorate difficult, brilliant and uncompromising artists. Visible details include the pale rendered wall, red brick adjoining building, drainpipe, cables, windows, strong sunlight and blue sky, all helping to place the mural in a real high street environment rather than a gallery setting. It works well for articles on The Fall, Manchester bands, John Peel era alternative music, post-punk legacy, Prestwich tourism, Greater Manchester cultural landmarks and the wider role of murals in marking local pride.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2RGPNA3 - Large mural of Mark E Smith, frontman of The Fall, painted on the gable end of Chips at No8 on Clifton Road in Prestwich, Greater Manchester. The wider street view shows the famous portrait beside the blue frontage of the independent fish and chip shop, with visible signage for Chips@No.8, fish and chips, take away and eat in. Smith is shown in a white open neck shirt and dark jacket with a cigarette, a confrontational and instantly recognisable image that reflects the abrasive wit and cult presence of one of British post-punk's most uncompromising performers. The mural was created by street artist Akse P19 for Prestwich Arts Festival in 2018 after Smith's death, and was reported as a six metre painting on the side of the local chippy. Pitchfork also reported that the mural was based on a photograph by Alex Whitton. The Fall emerged from Prestwich and Greater Manchester in the late 1970s, building a fierce reputation through jagged repetition, literary bite, dry northern humour and Smith's unmistakable vocal delivery. The setting matters because this is not a formal monument in a gallery or civic square, but a music icon painted on a working chippy in a local high street environment. The image is useful for editorial stories about Manchester music heritage, The Fall, Mark E Smith, post-punk, fan pilgrimage, public art, grassroots culture, Prestwich identity, independent businesses and the role of murals in preserving local memory. Details such as the red brick shop, blue fascia, rendered side wall, flue pipe, overhead wires, drainpipe, clear blue sky and strong sunshine place the artwork firmly in an everyday northern street scene. The photograph also works for wider coverage of music tourism, urban art, cultural landmarks, British alternative rock, working class creativity and the way ordinary local businesses become points of pilgrimage for fans.
