Debenhams has confirmed its Basildon store will close permanently next week.
It comes as the shop in the Royals Shopping Centre, in Southend, will shut for the final time this Saturday (May 8).
Bosses have announced 80 per cent discounts on all fashion and home items, while customers can get up to 70 per cent off on beauty and fragrance products.
A Debenhams spokesman said: “We are now heading into the final days of our closing down sale and this is the very last chance for our customers to take advantage of some incredible deals.
“With up to 80% off across our remaining stores, customers are urged to shop now while stocks last.
“Over the next 10 days, Debenhams will close its doors on the high street for the final time in its 242 year history.
“Our sincere thanks go out to all of our colleagues and customers who have joined us on this journey.
“We hope to see you all one last time in stores before we say a final goodbye to the UK high street.”
A total of 52 stores will close by Saturday, with the final 49 closing on May 12 or May 15.
