I'm now converted fab shop got some really good stuff in at the moment (some tat as well tho) bought a lovely top today but saw a lot of other stuff I was tempted to buy ie a lovely jacket 18 squid and they also had some lovely bags, definitely worth another trip!

just slow down primark is good for soooo many things, BUT be selective!!!!!!!!!!!!!

depends on your age, if you are under 40 then most stuff ok, if over 40 (is that really me in the mirror) then be VERY careful what you buy, otherwise, mutton as lamb springs to mind

I usually only check out the kids stuff which can be great but can also be crap - last sat however I wandered around the ladies section and wanted loads of things ! So i am treating myself to a few bits tomorow, that is if they haven't got rid of it all and got new stuff in !

There is some absolutely appalling stuff in there too... this week I looked in horror at some of the things they expected 3 year old girls to wear

Yeah I don't generally like their girls stuff at all, but the boys stuff for that age is quite cute,

was surprised at girl's stuff....some nice cotton jackets and lightweight fleeces last week.....agree tho that you have to look hard past the tat and slogans...

I love primark. its fab. I can't go in there at the mnoment as I'm not supposed to be buying anything. I always leave with a bag full.

chankins · 18/01/2008 22:06

kids pjs are so nice I have bought them 3 pairs each lately, and got some for me too. Baby vests and gros and bibs are great too. Plus the mens section is fab all the time, lucky for them !

Oh there are some lovely girls things too. Some just scream "style-formally-known-as-chav" and "tart" at you though.

I love Primark
