They also sell small gifts, including fridge magnets, and an eye-catching display of sunglasses. The young lady who served me last week was very pleasant and helpful.

This is a small Boots location, after security at Manchester Airport Terminal 1. It's a useful stop…read moreto get any last-minute toiletries, beauty items or bottled drinks and snacks ahead of your flight. The prices for drinks seemed between 10-15% more than a regular Boots location, a little expensive but still priced competitively for the Airport. The store feels modern like it has been refreshed lately and it's easy to find what you need, although the store is small so it shouldn't be too difficult anyway. The selection in the store again seemed fine, I was able to get what I was looking for, but that was just a Lipton Iced Tea and cola. There are only manned checkouts here, I prefer a balance of both a staffed checkout and self-service, the latter is especially important for a travel environment where customers will be in a rush and I find this easier in general. PRO TIP: Use Boots' click-and-collect service to order your toiletries and other items here. If you allow enough time you can do this and avoid paying the inflated Airport prices. 3*

Why is it that when you go through airport security they confiscate any make-up and toiletries from…read moreyou that are over a certain volume including foundation and mascara? Beats me too. Especially when there's a Boots in the same terminal where you can go and buy the exact products again. Hate to sound like a skeptic but something doesn't add up here, folks. There's never anyone queing up to buy plasters or toothpaste in this Boots, it's always ladies reluctantly forking out to replace their toiletries and make-up!

This is a superb chemist's shop and pharmacy. The staff are…read morevery knowledgeable and helpful at all times. I have been in for prescription items and for general health items on many occasions this year and have only had to wait once. That time, there were six people ahead of me, so it was understandable! The shop is next door to a group practice and there are a number of other doctors' surgeries along the road, so it is very convenient for many locals. My own doctor's is some distance from here, but I still use it as I feel the service is so good. They have a service for collecting and preparing repeat prescriptions which is extremely easy to set up and they will give advice on many health issues

I just have to mention this pharmacy because it has some real finds inside. Enter its premises and…read moreto your right are some very cheap(in cost and appearance) greeting cards, walk past the pregnancy tests and Preparation H cream- yuck.( I only know about this cream because my beautiful friend told me it is great for your skin and almost gives you a facelift, but then I read what its true purpose is and, I'm not telling you .....yuck. Walk straight past the lovely ladies at the counter and their glucose tablets and Fisherman's friends and you will find what I am talking about. This place is perfect for stocking fillers and little gifts: there are lavender scented teddy bears, Ben 10 bubble bath, nail files that sparkle and beautiful body lotion sets. Everything is cheap and cheerful here including the staff who always have smiles on their faces. A great little pharmacy.
