Vogue is a ladies clothes shop for 'older dolls'. I'm at that stage in my life so I really like it…read more Don't get me wrong, I'm not a centenarian (yet), but I doubt Vogue would appeal to teens and twentysomethings. It sells all the usual dresses, tops, trousers and jackets you would expect and also a small selection of accessories and scarves. Sometimes I spot a lot of items in Vogue I want to buy but at others I don't see anything appealing. Most shops are like this though and it just depends on the latest stock and seasonal trends. Vogue will not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's certainly mine. Nice shop which stocks lovely clothes. Average in terms of cost. Definitely worth a browse.

B&M Bargains in Armagh is surprisingly good. Normally I wouldn't buy food or toiletries from low…read morecost stores as they often have limited vegetarian options but I spotted quite a few items I would buy here. They stock a nice range of Original Source shower gels which I love as they are superb quality, vegan, made in the UK, not tested on animals and a bargain at only 99p. Plus there are cooking, curry, BBQ sauces and gravies all suitable for vegetarians and vegans. The selection of food is vast and includes sweets, cereals, biscuits, chocolates, jams, pasta, noodles, soups, tinned food and crisps etc. This particular B&M is large, tidy and well laid out with plenty of space in the aisles for browsing. It's really pleasant to walk around as there's great air conditioning unlike other similar stores which can be stuffy. Staff are also extremely helpful and efficient. In-store music is not irritating, which is a huge bonus. I enjoy browsing Armagh B&M and can spend ages pottering around it. Everything household and gardening related is stocked at low prices. Ornaments, curtains, picture frames, mirrors, cooking utensils, pots, pans, ironing boards, toasters, kids toys, storage boxes, garden furniture, bed linen, cleaning and pet products just to mention a few items. Definitely the best bargain store I have visited to date.

I'll make no secret of the fact that as I've aged my requirements in terms of cosmetics, lotions…read moreand potions has changed considerably. Ironically, in my youth, all that held my interest were the latest scientific breakthroughs in anti wrinkle formulas or the best, brightest, heavy-duty coverage makeup. All irrelevant of the cost. Now with age and wisdom (which I wish had come much, much sooner) I'm only interested in the truly important things. These are ensuring that products I use on my skin cause no harm to animals or the environment. Thankfully this is were Superdrug is miles ahead of the opposition. Superdrug is the high street leader, in terms of own-brand products, which are proudly labelled vegetarian, vegan and Leaping Bunny certified (not tested on animals). So every single Superdrug own-brand item including toothpaste, deodorant, shower gel, shampoo, sunblock, tanning lotion and the B Makeup range are THE most ethical items you can buy from any chemist or supermarket.

Instead shop at Superdrug - I wish I'd started years ago.

Good independent supermarket which sells a huge range of products. Just as you'd expect they sell…read moreevery grocery item imaginable - meats, fresh fruit and veg, breads, deli items and they have a very good off licence too. I have occasionally been disappointed with McAnerney's unfortunately. On a recent trip I found their one offering of halloumi cheese extortionately priced. Hence I visited another supermarket and picked up some halloumi for a fraction of the price. Good quality products but expensive.
