A lady I work for who is minted shops in the Primark in London, in Oxford street I think. The stuff she buys I have never seen in my local store so I think that they must change the stock to the store.
I use to love Wolverhampton shopping centre when I lived that way. I use to work in Etam in the shopping centre when I was 16 before I joined the RAF and was posted to Cosford for my training.I joined up to see the world and got posted 20mins from home, well that life

Hi Helen - that happened to me too with Asda - unfortunately they spotted it and took the money around 4 weeks later without any warning so be careful and keep eye on it as when I emailed and had a go at them (as the extra money coming out of the bank caused us trouble) they said they can take payment anywhere up to 6 months later! Cheek!!!

Here's hoping they don't spot yours though - nothing like a freebie to brighten our days lol :o)

I have to say I can't stand Primark! It's not the clothes that are the problem, it's the fact it's like a jumble sale and to be honest I'd rather go without than join in the free for all!

That's why I won't shop in the sales either!

I got a cracking coat from Primark last year - stepdaughter has it now as it is too big for me.

Didn't like the rugby scrum though!

This years coat is from Ebay and is hanging in the hall as we speak!

Some primarks are civilised, Wolverhampton is a posh Primark and so is Corby but Manchester well that's the worlds biggest jumble sale ever...still go though x
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

I'll be doing Birmingham again with daughter this year (we have an annual Christmas shopping day out) but won't be doing Primark!

Gosh I can remember my mon taking me to the rag market in Birmingham every year for my winter coat and every year the man on the stall would offer my mon 4 camels for me. Mom always said if he could make it 5 she would think about it.Then we would get hot chestnuts from a man outside to eat on the bus home, happy days,

Each to their own, I personally never used to go to Primark but with limited funds it dresses me well x

It was a daytrip to Birmingham for me - usually ended up in C&A and always went to the Kunzle restaurant for lunch.

Showing my age now!

Going to Manchester this weekend as it's my Mum's wedding Anniversary and she's having a 'do'. Daughter will want to go shopping on Sunday but I'm trusting her finally to go into Manchester via bus (with boyfriend), that way we won't have to go as I'm all shopped out as it's not my favourite activity.
