George at Asda have asked us to find Mumsnetters willing to take part in some focus group research about present and future ranges of girls' underwear and clothing. You need to have at least one DD aged 10-14 to take part.
There will be two focus groups:
Leeds NOW FULL (a 5-10 minute walk from Leeds station) ~ On Tuesday 23rd November ~ 12.00pm - 1.30pm followed by lunch ~ In Asda House, Leeds ~ Sorry, no children
Leicester ONE OR TWO SPACES AVAILABLE (this will vary on numbers but if requested and if needed, a private bus service can be arranged, where you will be collected from Fosse Park Asda (off junction 21, M1) at 10am) ~ On Wednesday 24th November ~ From 11am - 12.30pm followed by lunch ~ In George House, Lutterworth ~ Sorry, no children
If you are selected to attend, George would like you to bring along a typical outfit your DD wears which will be discussed (in terms of what you like your DD to wear and what she likes to wear!).
Everyone who is selected and turns up on the day, will be given £30 cash as a thank you for taking part, as well as up to £50 towards travel expenses (receipts needed).
We're looking for a mixture of George at Asda shoppers as well as non-George shoppers. Please note McCallum Layton - an external research agency - will be moderating both groups and some members of staff from George will be sitting in both groups - though they will only be observing and not participating in the discussion. The discussions will be recorded, but this is purely for internal use and not for broadcast.
If you're able and willing to attend please add your details here and we will be in touch. By volunteering to take part in these discussion groups you are agreeing to keep all information and discussions completely confidential.
My daughter is older (16 last month) but had puberty issues and we became experts on inappropriate undies for young girls. I know exactly where to buy an inappropriately padded bra for a 10 year old ! I can come to the Leeds one if you want to buy me lunch
I dont have a teenager but would beg ASDA to consider less skimpy girls pants as an addition to their range
When i potty trained dd i put her in boys briefs as they were far better quality and provided better coverage, were softer cotton and elastic and had no itchy 'lace' edging
Then as she got bigger I have started to have to buy either buy pants from Baby Gap, Boden, Petit Bateau (££££££ ) or short/boxer style ones from H&M or Lidl
There as so frequently threads on here complaining about girls knickers
When do we find out if we've been chosen...I mean that's my day off and if I'm not needed to change the face of fashion for teenage girls I've got stuff to do
People with pre teen and teenaged daughters accept that the clotheing will be 'funkier' than they would like, but the children have to have some say in what they wear or they simply will not wear it.
well, i went! it was good, very interesting. plus i am now educated thanks to the mums of older girls in the art of bra's for when dd gets to that stage
) or short/boxer style ones from H&M or Lidl
