Mark One or MK One as it now seems to be known used to be a shop I visited on a regular basis. The store is large and stocks women's clothes and accessories, including a plus sized range and a limited shoe section. Unfortunately, the stock in the Burnley store seems to be getting more and more depleted with large empty areas which leaves me to wonder if the store will soon be closing its doors for good.
There are plenty of 'chav' clothes on offer but also some more tasteful outfits and the prices are low. There's always an extensive sale section where you can stretch your money even further but there's plenty of awful clothes to scour in search of hidden gems.
The staff are particularly helpful though and do deserve a special mention. When buying T-shirts for a hen night, the Burnley staff were great at setting aside all the stock they had of a particular style and were great in telephoning around all the MK One stores in Lancashire to source the elusive size 12s our party searched for.
Despite some of the frankly awful fashion choices on offer in MK One, I do enjoy hunting down wearable bargains and I would definitely miss it if it went! read more
