They also sell shoes( weird looking ones). A great place to pick up something different in the jewellery, candles, gifts or cards line.

Peacocks sell clothes for men, women and children. They also sell a small range of gifts at various…read moretimes through out the year (e.g. around Valentine's, Christmas etc.). Their clothing is great value for money and usually well made, and they often have sale rails which can be worth a rummage through. If you need basic clothes for work, college or just general every day wear then Peacocks is a good place to go. I probably wouldn't recommend it for something fancy to wear though.

This branch of T K Maxx is located in the new Captain Cook's Square in Middlesbrough town centre. I…read moremust confess, I prefer the branch on Teesside Retail Park. This branch is all on one floor, and seems a bit jumbled to me. They sell clothing, shoes, bags, toys, ornaments etc. I always like to take a look in if I'm in the town centre, as I would hate to miss a bargain, and you CAN get bargains here, but you have to be lucky, and you have to be prepared to rummage for them! I personally find the clothing expensive, even though it is discounted. But they do carry a nice line in reduced price toys and games, although I don't think they have a big a selection at the Teesside Park branch. There always seem to be queues at the check outs, too.

This shop is great. You can get pretty good quality shoes for a very cheap price. There are mens…read moreshoes, womens shoes and childrens shoes. They also do slippers. If you need a new pair of shoes this is the place to go.

The main Warehouse is on Linthorpe road, right in the centre and very easy to find. There is also a…read moreconcession in Debenhams over the road and House of Fraser. All VERY close together so it is easy to find something in a different size if the shop you're in does not have one. Warehouse is quite expensive to me, although I generally quite like their tailored looks and lace this season I find £50 min for a dress quite pricey so generally shop in sales here which are quite good and they have some great reductions. Warehouse does not do shoes apart from flip flops in summer. They stock a nice range on jewellery and often reduce it all to a pound in the sakes. I've always found the staff to be very helpful and polite and always offer advice if you need it.

In Warehouse I find I can easily find well priced clothing which will suit both daily wearing and more dressy occassions. This is not one of the bigger branches of Warehouse but the choice and stock levels have always seemed good. You will also find accessories to complement you clothing purchases in the form of bags and necklaces. Student discount is also offered here.

At around midday today 20th September I visited the Northallerton branch I asked a member of staff…read moreon the floor what the price was of some weed killer spray which was not priced up. Haughtily he said that they were too busy to help and I would have to check at the till. He then walked to the one of the tills, because there was indeed, a large queue waiting. There was nobody at this till, I thought I was to follow him, so I asked him to please price up the item. Haughtily, yet again, he said to go back to the end of the queue and wait for a price. I could not believe his attitude for such a simple request. Employing him is doing the company no favours at all, I am afraid. All I wanted was the price of some weed killer! Shame on the Company and shame on the Store Manager for employing him.

If you do manage to get in , the aisles in the clothing department are narrow and frequently blocked. This shop is a disabled persons nightmare. The previous two reviews are absolute twaddle - they probably have been written by staff. I have not found staff friendly & efficient - they frequently seem more interested in each other than serving customers. I have visited this shop since it opened - I will NEVER go in again (as I am a carer for an elderly relative who is wheelchair-bound I can not get in anyway). This shop is to be AVOIDED at all costs!
