I love their two for one offers and the advantage card is genius. My local boots and I love it.

When it is busy they tend to utilise the till right at the front of the store away from the pharmacy for those not needing anything from the pharmacy. They have a small section of make up and skin care but the basics are usually there and they have all the same offers as the bigger stores, and I have found when no 17 or no 7 give away freebies with purchases this store has them in stock more than the larger ones.

This is quite a small branch of Boots but I think it's great and have used this store for years. At…read morethis time of year especially I think it's a great place to shop as it's all festive and has a brilliant selection of Christmas gifts considering the small space inside. The counter is along the back wall of the shop and here you will also find the Pharmacy. Behind the counter are all the medicines which cannot be bought straight off the shelf. All staff in here are qualified to give advice on different medications and I've always found their recommendations to be honest and accurate, I've never felt like I was being steered towards the most expensive option and most will advise that the Boots own brand painkillers are as effective as the bigger brands which cost up to three times more. The shop is laid out in a straightforward manner and it's incredibly easy to find everything you're looking for, products are consistently grouped together and the shelf edge labels let you know that you're in the correct place and also advise of any special offers relating to the items you are planning to purchase. Their selection of bathroom items are fantastic, all the top name shower gels and bubble baths are available as well as the excellent Boots ranges. I usually buy a lot of my shower gels from here as I am not particularly loyal to any one brand and the special offers (including lots of BOGOF's usually) makes this a cheap way of purchasing brands that I would usually find too expensive. This branch also sells a limited range of make-up which is well priced, because of lack of space they tend to stock only the most popular brands and shades so I cannot always find anything I want but then I am a bit fussy when it comes to make-up so prefer to visit one of the larger Boots stores. Their Christmas gifts are currently on a 3 for 2 offer which can drastically cut your present shopping bill - just yesterday I went in and bought half a dozen gifts including a Baileys gift set, individual tea pot and tea cup and set of In The Night Garden figures. The presents are all of the highest quality and Boots gifts are generally well received by my friends and family because there are some unusual items that I haven't seen before. This branch stocks an excellent selection of cosmetics bags and I usually buy a few of these as stocking fillers because they are attractive and very reasonably priced. The pharmacy is great, the pharmacist has been there for years and knows his customers well. I've heard him greet some of them by name, but is very personable even to people like myself who don't use the pharmacy very often. I have popped in with the kids occasionally for advice on small matters where I wouldn't want to bother the doctor and he is efficient and asks lots of questions before giving his opinion. Everything he's ever told me has proved to be correct and I find him, and all staff in this branch, to be reliable and well informed. The shop is well spaced so getting around in a wheelchair or with a pram poses no problem, there is plenty of space between the shelves so even the most boisterous toddler in the world (who happens to be my daughter!) won't be able to snatch stuff off the shelves as you're browsing - unlike a larger Boots I visit sometimes where I have to watch her like a hawk!

A great store that is often not as busy as some of the high street stores what with it being on a business park. A welcome change which means you can browse at your leisure. Wunderbar!

Now, Birmingham... Let's talk Health. I have reviewed my Dentist and my Doctor, but there are a…read morehost of other places in Birmingham which are striving to keep us fighting fit. For my services which are not teeth related, I use the multiple places in Boots. Boots (as you will already know) is a chain pharmacy and beauty store - available in train stations, city centres and most places where you may need to grab a pack of paracetamol or some plasters. This boots, however, offers a whole host of other services you may need for a range of health needs. Upstairs are your beauty counters, hygiene products and gifts (the discount on gifts after christmas is particularly good - offering 50% - 70% off), but on the lower floor are it's other services. If you pop on the escalators and head downstairs you'll find an optician, an NHS walk-in, a doctors surgery, Birmingham Uni dentists and a sexual health clinic. With the doctors surgery and dentist, you will need an appointment. The optician will see walk-ins (depending on how busy they are) and the sexual health clinic and NHS centre are totally walk-in led. This, obviously, can lead to long waiting times - but if you desperately need a doctor and can't get an appointment at your local clinic, this place is a lifesaver (probably quite literally). As well as the various medical services I have mentioned, Boots offers a "stop smoking" clinic and other health led initiatives. When I first moved into Birmingham City Centre I had no idea where my local health services would be (I was dreading having to catch a bus out of town), so for all of those who work or live in the City - this place is your one stop shop for when you're feeling off or need some supplies.

There's also the more seasonal items. Currently there are sunglasses and lotions located towards the back of the store. It's never been overly busy when i've been there even at 5pm on a weekday which is perfect if you want to spend a bit more time browsing. The meal deal is a good price (£3.49 at last check) and it includes a sandwich/wrap, a drink and a snack (up to the value of £1.25 so go for the larger ones!). The service is always quick as there's never really a queue which is great if you're in a rush.

It's pretty much your typical Superdrug in terms of look/feel of the store and selection, the product range was fine (The drinks section isn't as good as other stores!) and the staff seemed friendly enough. I do feel the checkout area could have been laid out better, but again this is a common issue with Superdrug stores. I was able to find the items I came in for, there were some good offers in-store. I do find the opening times to be a little restrictive in the evenings, but this isn't exactly the store's fault as they can only open when the mall is open. 4* - A good Superdrug store which I will likely visit again next time I'm in Solihull.
