I recent went to Boots to pick up some basic essentials (at least what I call essentials), and for 6 bottles of pills and mouth cleansing utensils I left forty plus squidolas lighter. I would love to give Boots one star, but really there would be no point because it's not Boot's fault that I had a bad shopping experience, it's just that its expensive, but everywhere is expensive. Shocked and appalled by the expense, yes ma'am, but what's a girl to do? Well at least I'll be healthy in my poverty!

It's a Boots. It's a little dirtier than your average Boots. They've got stuff. Sometimes it's…read morecheapish, often expensive. Tip: If you're homeless (and what are you doing on Yelp if you are?) or just poor, they put out their day's sandwiches on Electric Avenue for those who can't afford them around 6 or so most evenings. For some reason I go here more than the Superdrug across the street. But most of these shops are fairly shite experiences.

Well, there is a Boots just at the end of my street so..Excellent range of Pukka, Yogi and other herbal teas. Lots of vitamins and that, and load of ankle/knee/wrist support things - more than I've seen anywhere else! Very friendly and helpful staff and reasonable prices. There's also apparently a really good arts supply/stationery store upstairs that I'm really happy to have found out about as I've been at a loss for where to go for some bits and bobs for making cards and that. I had to dash back to work but will investigate further and report back on what's upstairs. c*

This is one of Brixton's hidden treasures in my opinion. Downstairs is a fairly typical pharmacy,…read morewhich does everything you would expect of a traditional pharmacy, all the medicines and cosmetics, photo development, passport photos, as well as selling scholl footwear, so far, so bog standard. But upstairs is one of the best fitted out art shops I have ever been in. Everything is of the highest quality, every king of paper you could be lookin for is catered for, I had been looking high and low for some quality layout paper, this was the only shop out of nine I visited to stock it. Their paints, pens and canvas supplies are all top notch, there is no filler here, it's all quality. If you want a cheap art set go to Smiths, but if you want to have the best, come here, pay the few quid extra and you'll get the best. Why can't the bigger chains have such good stock?
