Guest Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Harry is off the Wales next week on a 'team-building' excercise with his new school, they will be living in a 'rural village' for a couple of days, abseiling, walking etc. So went into Primark and got him gloves, fleeces, socks, hot water bottle in a lovely fleecy cover (it was on the list) for less than a tenner. Also bought some really nice slipper socks as stocking fillers for them both and they were only a £1 a pair, (Jules' are a really cute penguin design) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krysia Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Oh yes we love primark too! So as well as a bargain you will get a quiet week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 (edited) I have just got back from Primark, laden down with cheap goodies as usual. Found an amazing fake leather black biker jacket which I know Devon will love, it was £12! Also a cute T for Cleo, & a little black bag...all under £4. Also got my Mum a pile of clothes as,even though they are named,her care home loses all her stuff on a regular basis.Its just not worth buying her decent gear,as it goes walkabout all the time.We saw another patient in one of Mums outfits last time we were there I LOVE PRIMARK!!!

ali-s Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I like Primark too I love their novelty socks as my work uniform is all black which makes me feel down. The bright socks cheer me up. Today I have bright blue ones on with a picture of a cow, underneath it says "mad moo" My favourite pair have a picture of an insect on and underneath is says "stop bugging me" I flash these at my boss when he is getting on my nerves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sister works in outdoor education.... He is going to Llandrinio. It is a centre owned by the school, apparently. They will 'gain an understanding of life in a rural community' I think that is school speak for rather basic accomodation, hence the request for a hot water bottle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Man Banned Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Just keep me away from TK Maxx - I spent a small fortune in there on Monday, and got lots of from Joe when he saw I'd bought yet another bag, a very nice retro Dunlop one with orange detail, only £12 I think I'm looking forward to the end of the month, when Next opens in our local retail centre 5 mins walk away Does anyone know if they run any promotions when they open a new store, might just pick up a bargain there, although close friend I'm seeing tomorrow works for them so easy 25% off NO! I do not need more clothes............ A xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 If NEXT do have a promotion Andrew, you'll probably have to start queuing at 4am! Nothing like a good bargain is there though, whether you need the thing or not!! We went to a wedding a couple of years ago, and I wore all Primark (Is that something I should admit to?) I only went in to pick up a cheap holiday beach towel and was amazed at what was in there. I wouldn't shop there exclusively, as I do believe you get what you pay for in some circumstances, but it's a great place on the whole for throw away fashion.
