I go to Primark Monthly because fashion these days is in one day gone the next.So to be quite honest i dont see the point of spending alot of my little wage on alot of new gear from over priced stores like Next extra...a Stripey top £12 in Next...Primark it cost me £5 and why should i care? Next month it will be polkadots!
Primark is a shop you'll like if you dont mind finding your own way around,being pushed into being constantly stared at by the "im tough though ive only got a walkie talkie" security guards.
The store in Manchester is [i think 3 floors} to be honest im not too certain i spend about half an hour in then if that...most of my time is spent in the ques.
The best part of Primark is the household because it is so quiet and i often find people trying on clothes in there which is not a suprise because wanting to try clothes on in there is really bad idea..it takes a good 30 minutes and if you go in the wrong direction of the room you were directed to you get proper bad evils from the people that work there.I say work,they actually dont..most are the rudest people i have ever met.
I do pity some of the people who TRY and work there,I work ina shop myself and i know how annoying it can be to be pushed or things thrown to the floor or constantly asked where things are.It is very hard to identify the staff at primark most where a black jumper with a shirt underneath and a little gold badge with "primark" wrote on it.
The shop is a tip to be honest,little much is done about it but i guess when they do attempt to tidy it up it only gets ruined again...as ive seen so very often.
Primark sell all sorts of gear Footwear,Handbags my fave place!,Baby clothes,Accesories for as little as a £1 and underwear..mens clothes too all under one roof.The homewear is quite pretty too.
The ques are enourmous,and alot of the time a cashier is struggling and requires help though this takes atleast 15minutes also the tills are so old fashioned it makes me laugh!
The assistant rarely makes conversation and just stops to say thankyou.Refunds are made on another part of the floor which is a simple case of siging a few things before its "Next Please" i know they are on a tight time scale but there is no smile,nothing at all and i feel this is what lets the shop down.If the prices were more exspensive i doubt this shop would be nowhere near as popular as it is.But i guess this is why people shop in here time after time because ofcourse people LOVE a good bargain.I dont understand however how people manage to collect two baskets full of shopping ive rarely filled a half!
I think a good investment would be to have a quick service checkout for 10 or less items because i have often just wanted a top and a pair of socks but the ques have put me off.But i guess primark dont really care about me £2.50 spend not when they are probably making that per second.
