Locked in a shop overnight.

[Frostine]

If you were locked in a shop overnight ( by yourself and in no danger )
Which type of shop would you choose ?
Mine would 100% be a bookshop . Even better if it had somewhere to make a coffee / tea.
My idea of heaven.

Liberty - I would be in heaven! I would try all the clothes on, slather myself in gorgeous cosmetics and then snooze on a pile of silken scarves.

An enormous wool shop like Woolful where I can liberate a crochet hook and sample all the different yarns🤗

Can it be a zoo or an animal sanctuary? 🤔

You can pay to be locked in London Zoo for the night, you stay in a chalet( hut) , but you aren’t allowed to wander around on your own. Apparently in the morning you hear the gibbons whoop. I am half thinking of it as a treat to myself for my next birthday .

Waterstones with a costa…., but overnight wouldn’t be long enough .,. A weekend please

The big Waterstones near Piccadilly has a proper bar/ restaurant on the top floor, and a couple of coffee places. Unfortunately the bar is closed for a refurb atm , as I found out today when I tried to go there before going to the RA.

Ikea or similar but only if I could have some friends and Nerf guns with me

John Lewis in Oxford Street ..amazing food department, decent coffee shop, comfy beds/sofas, try out all the beauty stuff, clothes theneverything in the tech department. Maybe start a thread on Mumsnet..I am stuck in John Lewis AMA...

A Pizza Hut. I have always wanted to use their stuff to make a pizza with a proportion of toppings like I want and to cook it till it's actually done in the way I prefer.

Oink!

Boring but a supermarket, I love looking at all the random ingredients but hate how busy they are, I'd like the night to mooch in silence, no radio blasting, no people!

Depends do we get to take home what we use in the morning?

@LaTomatina

IKEA! Especially if I had access to the cafe as well as the showroom.

I always feel as if I have been in IKEA for weeks, when leaving.

Harrods it has everything

M&S.

Bed, food and most importantly, clean underwear.

I always liked the idea of being trapped in a mall/shopping centre like in the zombie apocalypse films. Literally everything you need and so much to do.

Selfridges London, it has everything!

Agree with some PPs that Ikea would be good, I would choose one of their little homes and pretend it was mine for the night. The plumbing would have to work, tho!

Another vote for Costco. I don't know what it is about their warehouses but I could spend hours in there looking at all the stuff! Plus they have everything (and more!) that I would need.

Christmas store 🥰

Boots. I would try out all the makeup

A large John Lewis or M&S for me please.

Although I wouldn't grumble at Harrods

I worked in a department store as a student and actually DID get locked in once. It was NOT fun!

@crochetmonkey74

Mine would be a department store - try on all the clothes, swan around with the designer handbags, spritz myself with all the perfumes I can't afford (Tom Ford) then go and sample all the nice chocolates from the food hall- make myself a cappucino and take myself off to one of the squashy beds- this is a fantasy of mine so I have pondered it a lot!

This.

High end jewellers
I'd be like Elizabeth Taylor, dripping in the stuff.

Antique shop, definitely

IKEA - so I could sleep in a bed after eating all the daim bars!
