Hi,Most of you will want to read this,and are wondering about the title of this opinion. Well I want to tell you all what I do to build up a sweat and no its not what you are thinking, for those dirty minded people out there.
I walk around for ages in this great department store and want to let you all know about it.Some of you may have heard about it and others of you won’t have.This store is call (The Original Factory Shop) it was founded in 1969, and has now 39 shops throughout England, Scotland and Wales.Some of the larger stores apparently sell furniture, but I cannot comment on what they have to offer as my store does not stock it.You will find a wide range of top brand merchandise with new stock arriving weekly. The particular one that I will talk about is in Lincolnshire.
The shop its self is very well laid out, and has its own changing rooms and I find the staff to be very friendly and helpful. They offer a 7 day refund policy on all their goods. They are open 7 days a week from 9am till 5pm. Their range of goods consists of the following –
Ladies, Mens and Children’s Clothing Ladies, Mens and Children’s Footwear Luggage and Travel accessories. Toys Homeware Kitchenware Mirrors Bedding Electrical Greeting Cards Bags Toiletries China and Glass Pine Furniture Lighting Music Books
They buy surplus goods from top chain stores,like Marks & Spencer’s, Boots, Dorothy Perkins and sell them at discount prices. Their sport wear consists of Nike, Adidas, Fila and many more. I have recently brought a pair of Nike trainers that cost me only £15 and the retail price should have been £35. I always seem to find a bargin whenever I go in to shop,I usually spend a good hour looking around. Last Christmas I was looking for some clip on earrings as a present for my husbands Nan and I had been looking in all the shops with out any luck, until I popped into the Factory shop and to my surprise I found that they had a large range to choose from. They also do lovely broaches, and hat pins. They often have designer dresses at great prices, and they range from ladies size 8 to 20 and prices range from £10 to £30, sometimes more depending on the designer. Their ladies shoe sizes are available from size 3 to 8, and have all the latest styles at affordable prices.
They have told me that they are now bringing out their own label clothing as well, which I am looking forward too. All the goods are of good quality and worth every penny I would certainly recommend that you pay a visit to this fabulous store when you see one. Unfortunately there does not seem to be many in the London area, most seem to be up north, which is a shame. I had never heard of them until I moved and I am very pleased that I found this shop, as it certainly helps me save some pennies. I have a listing of where there shops are if anyone needs any info, please feel free to leave me a message and I will guide you to your nearest store.
Advantages: Top Brands Disadvantages: Can be over crowded with stock, Discounts not as good as quoted.
...had to change it as the company has changed its format! As best I can, I will describe the two as it seems they are in the process of changing and you may find a store still in the old format.

It's not too hard once you're in a town that has one, just look for something bold blue and coloured squares!
