Marks and spencers is a institution in Rugby and I can never remember my life without it, I can…read moreremember my granny taking me in to buy my school tightes and underwearhaha!!! Over the years its stop kept up with all trends and has suffered, but I still love it. The rugby store is a big store in the town centre and the staff seem to have been there forever and are great, really helpful and friendly. I do not purchase clothes as much from there, as do not find it my sort of style, but I love the tights and underwear there, and I also love the food, myself and my husband do not have a lot of disposapol income but now and again for a treat we will purchase thier dine in for 10 gbp offer and we love it, yes. You could probally do the same from tescos or asda for same price but it feels like an indulgence when you purchase from mark's and although they may have suffered over the years, they still have kept their image of high quality and class. Also I have really enjoyed there new media campains with twiggy and take that.

Argos is a large retail chain that sells anything from toys to lawnmowers, and i think most towns…read morehave one of these stores. Rugby's Argos is based in the clocktowers shopping centre and is of a decent size, it also has the jewlery counter situated inside also. Argos i think over the years has gone down in peoples estimation, and has been taken over in the publics affections by places like tescos, asda and also the internet shopping helps, as you will find most things that are sold in argos for much cheaper. Although i can not moan as we have picked up many a bargain from our argos and the staff seem to always be very friendly and efficent. The waiting time also is not as bad in this store as in others i have visited in neighbouring towns. They always tend to have agood selection of stock also, and its not to often i have found a no stock come up on the little stock screen thing that you put in your items number etc. I also like there no option of paying by your card on one of their self serve till things, really good and makes shopping there even easier. I think if you like Argo thean the Rugby store is very good.

During sales you get some massive reductions on lots of products in the debenhambs store. The staff are friendly and helpful which is always good, and the store is always clean and tidy and well organised, which makes it much easier to find what you are looking for. The returns policy isnt great so be careful with that. Also, the service can be poor when busy and the prices can be quite expensive compared to other places such as on the internet, so dont expect it to be the cheapest place to go to, because it isnt. Apart from that it is very very good.

We opted to come to this Debenhams rather than go into central Birmingham and were glad we did…read more It's right by the car park to the Kingfisher Centre and is really big, set on 2 floors. We went there to spend wedding vouchers and were pleased to find it had a big range of products ranging from electrical goods to clothes and jewellery. It wasn't too crowded and the staff were really helpful in sorting out transferring our individual wedding giftcards on to one card. We will definitely go back to this Debenhams as it was so easy to be able to shop and then nip back to the car to drop the goods off before continuing shopping elsewhere.

(Think 'Are you being served') It was gutted a few years back and although the building looks the same on the outside inside it's a totally different place. There are three floors (as per usual) which are jam packed full of things to peruse and buy! The womenswear floor is large with a wide range of items for women of any taste. They have a Coast branch inside and a big collection of fancy dresses to suit. The homeware floor is big as well with quite a decent range of kitchen utensils which is nice because a lot of stores skimp on things like this. All in all the store is nice and bright, it can get a bit congested on the escalators and in the lobby though so be careful.

The store is opposite boots and next door to body care in the clock towers shopping centre.
