They also have some snacks and chilled drinks. The store is nicely laid out and easy to negotiate even with a buggy (or travel system as they are called now!) or wheelchair.

Only slightly set back from the main row of shops but for some reason blink and you might miss it…read more Very helpful staff and a great little range of stock ..... some very suprising and well priced. Feeling unwell, then it's the place to go (don't waste the Docs time if it's only a sniffle). The staff are more than willing to help you out and will advice you what to do if they can't.

I usually visit Lloyds in Abingdon town centre if I have been to the doctors and have a…read moreprescription to collect. They are usually fast, efficient and helpful. They also collect repeat prescriptions from the doctors surgery for you, and will deliver the prescription to you too if you are unable to get out.

I've never needed to ask for help in here so I'm not sure what the staff are like but it is always fun to have a poke around it. They have some great deals on fairly regularly and if I was having a kids party I'd definately make this a stop on the circuit.

Abingdon Superdrug sells a very big range of toiletries and cosmetics, hair care products and…read morethings like that. As the previous reviewer mentioned, it tends to be cheaper than Boots for most things.

I cannot see myself going here for anything but something I'm already comfortable with. It's just not the kind of place I've ever gotten help from.

They have a selection of their products here, inlcuding make-up, bath and body stuff and health products such as medicines. They also have a pharmacy which is handy, especially as Boots pharmacies tend to give the well known brands of medication rather than the cheaper generic versions. So if for example you want a proper ventolin inhalor rather than a generic salbutamol one then you are more likely to get it at Boots than anywhere else! Boots also have a weighing scale which costs about 20p to use and gives you a printed out copy of your weight and BMI. A small shop, but very well laid out and a good variety of products.
