This store situated on the outskirts of Bangor is a wee find, it has just about everything that you…read morecan think of including a lot of big brand names. The prices are very reasonable although some items can be bought elsewhere at cheaper price but that's not to say that you can't find that proverbial wee bargain! The store is big and spacious and there are plenty of parking spaces. It is well laid out and is pleasant enough to browse around and the staff are very helpful. It is worth visiting this store especially if you are looking for those seasonal items as the deals are very competitive .

Over the last few years I drove past this large unit of a shop about a million and one times on my…read moreway to the gym. It never attracted me because I imagined it would be full of cheaper-quality clothes and pound shop quality home wares. I was right! My sister made me go as she loves a bargain. We stopped off and walked into this huge cave of a place - a mixture of ladies, gents and children's clothing. There were groceries, household products, sports equipment, jewelry and pet store products. I trawled through lots of different clothes, some marked with stickers that say 'This garment was produced for a popular high street store' - I guess they have a small amount of factory seconds but most of the products are too expensive for customers looking for a bargain. I did buy one top for £7.00 so I was happy enough. My sister, who usually loves shops like this, thought it was full of things you could buy in the pound shop for half the price. I won't be back.

The name creates the image that this place is going to be frantic and furious, I mean Price Attack…read moreit sounds viscous, I went in hoping that the prices were the only thing being attacked. To my surprise this store could not have been more different, it was serine and relaxed, to be honest it felt like I was watching it in slow motion. Price Attack sells everything you could possibly think of, it is a little bit mixed up if I am honest. On one isle there was various dog toys and treats and right there on the opposite side there was a range of rugs and carpets that were being perused by an elderly couple. I thought this was a little strange and there was no real separation of different products. Price Attack also sells hardware and general household goods but I would suggest you call in because the items in store certainly will not break the bank. One thing I noticed about Price Attack is that they did not have the typical shopping jingles playing over the speakers, instead they had a Radio 4 debate about benefit fraud so you might just learn some topical information by calling into Price Attack.

I love the name of this shop. It sounds like something out of an action film...a bitta good guy vs…read morebad guy, where prices attack like never before. Very dramatic, and much better than the mundane 'Pound Shop'. Effectively, that's what Price Attack is...a sort of pound shop. Of course, not everything is a pound, but there's certainly a sufficient number of goods around this price to justify the overarching label. Goods such as stationary (five rubbers for a pound etc.), household cleaners, hardware / outdoor accessories and all the sort of usual discount store stock. As means of explanation for the next bit of info I provide you with, I'm going to contextualise it for you. It has been said that I'm a bit anal when it comes to cleanliness (you'll see where I'm going with this in a minute), and I rather like those mini bottles of hand gel that came into vogue around the time we thought we were all going to die of swine flu. Despite not giving in to such beliefs, I just decided to purchase one for times of need, and since then I've gone through tubs of the stuff. My friends have begun to make fun of me, but hey, they're not complaining when they need a hand-clean and I'm the only one with the gel... Well, to my delight, I'd spotted a 99p bottle of Carex hand gel, and remembering my current tube was dying a slow death, I decided to purchase this new one. Unfortunately nothing else caught my eye, so it was my only buy....which rarely happens in a discount store. At least now my world will continue to be a happy and clean place. And all for 99p...

Now, this place may not win any awards for being cool and I used to curse my mother for buying me…read moreshoes from here when I was a young boy but now I'm older and buying my own shoes I can see why she brought me here year after year to get my school shoes. The prices aren't low but they're really, really good for the quality of shoe that you get and a pair of Clarks will last you ages. There is also that cool machine that works out your shoe-size which always used to amaze me when I was younger. The staff are knowledgable and friendly, not being too pushy with the optional extras like polishes and leather protector etc.

I usually don't like going to this Clarks Shoe shop as their kids department is upstairs and not…read moreoverly convenient for prams. I was passing today but and needed to get new shoes for my youngest so I thought I would nip in. As I said kids department is upstairs so I parked the pram in the designated area for prams and brought my wee one upstairs. There was no one else there, bonus I picked a good time to go, I noticed on my way in through the doors a ticket system so it must get very busy at times and to stop arguments between mothers they have thought of this. Shop is very well laid out in age categories and types of shoes. Lovely and bright too for kids. Assistant came straight over and measured my daughters feet and then went into the store and got all the available stock in her size, three pairs to choose between. Assistants are very knowledgeable in fitting for kids. Needless to say we came home with new shoes.

Better Value, Better Quality, It must be Dunnes Stores! Remember this old TV jingle for Dunnes…read more Anytime anyone mentions the place that recycles in my head. So all I can say is the ad worked. Anyway Dunnes Stores eh? What can I say, it is a bit of an institution in Northern Ireland and Ireland, it is kind of the same deal as Primark. Low quality clothes but at an excellent price. For instance I think I have got a few white shirts for various occasions from Dunnes stores. I would say its target audience is the older generation as I do not see too many young people go in and out of Dunnes. But it must be doing okay as it has been in its unit in the Flagship centre for years and years. If you need the basics in terms of clothes and don't want to spend too much money then I would go to Dunnes Stores. The flagship Centre is right in the centre of town and there is on site parking and ATM's galore.

Dunnes store is a classy department store situated in the centre of Bangor. Although it is moderate…read morein size it is all on the one floor and does stock a good selection of children's, ladies and men's. There is also a good quality stock of household goods. I have never been dissatisfied with anything that I have purchased from this store wether for me or as a present. It really is value for money with prices being very affordable for the quality provided. The only problem I have when shopping here is that there are so many nice things to choose from, just when you think you have got what you want, you see something else that had a bigger wow factor!! It is a lovely clean and bright store and the layout always stay the same so there is no valuable time wasted trying to find the section you are looking for. All in all I can't really say anything negative about this store except that I really could shop till I drop when I go into it but I always manage to come home with one of those great bargains that we all love to get our hands on !!
