I have 4 children who keep me very busy. My hobbies are watching rugby league (amateur and professional) walking, DIY and gardening when I get the time.

One of my all time favourite shops has to be JJB. With 4 children I find their clothing good value at reasonable prices.
JJB is the only store I know that I can get something for everyone so I also save time and energy.
When I go in someone usually asks if I need help but I don't feel watched like in some other stores. I can walk round for ages and get help if I need it.
The staff are mainly polite and helpful and if something I particularly want is out of stock they will ring the nearest stores to try to find it.
There are often good offers on. I like the "buy one get one free" best as you don't have to get the same size or colour. I bought my son a sweatshirt, tracksuit pants and polo shirt and got the same free for my daughter.
As well as clothes they have a wide range of trainers and football boots.
The larger stores (superstores) also do bikes, golf equipment, fitness equipment and others such as pool tables, basketball hoops etc.
You can pay by any credit or debit card but there is a JJB store card which gives points. I would only use it though if you pay your bill in full each month as the interest rate is not good.
The larger stores are often in retail parks and stay open until later than shops in town. This is handy if you need to shop after work or school.
The only thing I do not like is that they sponsor Wigan Rugby club so as a Saints fan I should begrudge giving them my money really but as I like the shop so much I'll let them off :-)

This is very helful to know, many of my friends do have young children, and it is a nightmare to find suitable sportwear, without burning a hole in their pockets.

Having big feet means JJB is a wasted shopping trip! they never seem to stock anything remotely tasteful in my size!
