Hi, I need to shift some excess stock of kitchen units fast so was thinking of running a clearance ad in the local press.
Would something along the line of the following work, and what should I change (the ad would also contain suitable images)


Designer Kitchen Clearance


To facilitate our move into new larger premises we are clearing the stock of our existing warehouse.


All Kitchens are the Latest German Designs and include Wood-grains, Hi-gloss and Handle-less options. All available at Less than current Trade prices.


But hurry as stock is limited and will be available on a first come first served basis

Tel 0800 ------- for free design and estimate


Company logo and address details etc
