What shop would you love a trolley dash around?

So as much stuff for free that you can get in your trolley in 5 minutes say. What would you buy?
I have just been browsing John Lewis so that would be a good shout. So much lovely stuff. I would head for The Home section-bedding/kitchen etc.
But equally I would love Home Bargains/B&M/Dunelm.

There’s no Costco here. We have JTF Bargains but that’s a very depressing place.

Costco here too!

Waitrose and I'd not move from the wine aisle for the whole 5 mins Grin

Liberty - perfume and jewellery departments! I would fill that trolley to the BRIM in seconds Grin

Purely for the season thats coming, but I'd have so much fun in the Christmas department at Libertys. Grin

Selfridges ground floor

If I only had 5 minutes probably M&S food because I know the layout and products. We don’t have a Waitrose so I would panic and end up grabbing stuff that nobody would eat.

If mitt going for food I would maybe go for Harvey Nichols make up department.

Hush.

A bank - with all the doors open.

Sagradafamiliar · 23/10/2019 10:30

Booths! Especially at this time of year.

formerbabe · 23/10/2019 10:30

M&S would be a practical choice.

Get loads of food then clothes for kids, uniform, underwear and nightwear for me, work shirts for oh and homewares

Sparklingbrook · 23/10/2019 10:45

The bank one is unlikely-they tend not to keep the doors open.

I was a bank cashier in a previous life and when we got held up they just stuffed it in a bag, I think a shopping trolley would have been too cumbersome. Plus loading it from trolley to car would have taken too long...

Hermes or Chanel.

Second to that Boots or M&S Food

DragonontheWagon · 23/10/2019 10:54

I've just thought of another, Boots, JL or Debs beauty counters. I'd fill my trolley with as much premium skincare and makeup as I could fit in 😂

FlaviaAlbia · 23/10/2019 10:57

Stuff the kids and the house, I'd go for a yarn shop. The type that sells fancy hand dyed yarn and single breed skeins as well as the basics like needles.

In 5 mins you could clear the shop and have thousands of pounds worth of wool in your trolley Grin You couldn't do that in a bigger shop where you have to rush though departments.

We need a greedy emoticon for that Blush

afrikat · 23/10/2019 11:17

White Company. All the bedding, candles, cashmere, baby stuff

walkintheparc · 23/10/2019 11:24

@caperplips oh goodness a trolley full of La Labo and Byredo is an absolute dream.

BlastEndedSkrewt · 23/10/2019 11:25

Costco

ParkheadParadise · 23/10/2019 11:36

Boots beauty counter.
M&S food hall
Symths toy store ( I've got 7 great-nieces and nephews to buy Christmas for)

Enko · 23/10/2019 12:13

Hooper's starting in handbags then through to kitchen shop and if I have any time left perfume and cosmetics

FrenchFancie · 23/10/2019 12:26

John Lewis, boots or Waterstones.

Or the apple store!! Provided I had an assistant so I could say ‘one of those one of those and one of those’ and let them do the dashing!

caperplips · 23/10/2019 12:37

walkintheparc Le Labo would actually be my first stop, I would even forego getting my name on the label in the interest of maximising my time to grab a LOAD of Annoushka jewellery Wink

paap1975 · 23/10/2019 12:38

Lakeland for me!

Five minutes? I'd go for Waitrose and stay in the wine and spirits department. Load up the trolly, no chance if anything g going off before you consume it. 😀 I would notice the savings when shopping for weeks.

Half an hour? Probably stay in Waitrose, wine and spirits department. Use the savings for anything g else I fancied.
