The staff seemed quite friendly and helped give me directions to a local Foodbank, so I was able to make a donation of items I'd acquired for free earlier that day, I decided to go to the Co-op down the road if anyone here is reading this looking for a donation box. The store is probably slightly above average for a Boots store with the traditional store offering and a few fragrance counters. I didn't really like the food and drink selection being on the top floor, but the selection overall was again okay and basically the same as most good locations of Boots, albeit slightly smaller than my local Manchester branch. Decent sized store, decent selection in most parts and friendly, helpful staff who can help with local problems, rather than just finding something direct in store. 3*

I have been using this chemist for over 30 years. I am appaled at the way it has gone downhill…read moresince Paydens took over. You can only count on reviews from less than 2 years ago. 1) No longer a 24hr chemist 2) Up to 4 days wait from delivering a request for a prescription. ( It has to go elsewhere to fill it, no longer on site) 3) Always SO busy! 10 to 15min wait just for a pack of asprin! Seems like people busy doing very little who have had good training in ignoring customers. No imagination used to cut waiting times. 3) Why on earth did they close the 2nd local chemist. Not for our benefit thats for sure!

(Well even…read morethough I'm not still a student, but I have a student card with no expiry date which is nice, aaanyway!...). This particular Superdrug branch is small and doesn't stock any cosmetic/beauty products; the name on the front just says 'Superdrug Health' instead of 'Beauty' as on some branches. You'll find basic toiletries and medicines, but no hair products or mascara - unless they've changed it since the last time I went in there. Seems a little pointless to me as they could stick a few of these things in and make money I think. Ah well, still it's a handy store and there is a pharmacy.

The pharmacists are available for personal consultation, if necessary, and there's also a rack of pamphlets with information and answers to commonly asked health care questions. For a pharmacy, there's a wide range of snackables, including crisps, chocolate bars, bags of sweets and healthier oat and granola bars. A chiller contains a few prepared and pre-packaged small meals, like sandwiches, wraps and salads. Other sections include a display rack of travel size items (including hand-sanitizer, my exciting purchase for the day) and a rack of prescription reading glasses. I've never known anyone to buy eyeglasses from a drug store, but they seem to be a staple supply item.

I was distracted during my trip to Day Lewis Pharmacy by how unbelievably cheap over-the-counter…read morepainkillers are in the UK. I was in the process of buying a 32 pack of paracetamol and the pharmacist said "They're 79." I just sort of stared and repeated what he said. £79 and 79p sounded equally unfeasible. Perhaps he meant ... £7.90? The cheapest you'd ever pay for even the tiniest bottle of headache medication in Canada is about $5. Anyway, by the end of the transaction, the pharmacist probably thought I was an idiot and I left to cure my headache feeling like a bank robber. In summary, Day Lewis has the usual Pharmacy stuff in smaller supply than some larger chains, and also has the (apparently usual) ridiculously low prices.

My ailed friend who'd asked me to pick some up for her was surprised and all, so maybe its a great unknown fact across the student world... Well, anyway, the chemists here were friendly, patient and helpful, and pleasantly chatty. Although it was a little on the small side in here, there was still enough seating for people to park themselves on while they waited for their prescriptions. There was also a rather exciting looking machine to one side of the room that looked rather intriguing... it offered a whole host of tests and readings to let you know how healthy you are, Calculating your BMI and heart rate. Ironically though, I didn't have any change on me, as I was expecting to have to break a note for the box of medicine rather than loose some shrapnel.

Last year, I suffered intensely at the hands of a dental abcess.

It had been causing me grief for a couple of days, but then I woke up at my girlfriend's screaming one morning. I scrambled for paracetamol. It did nothing. I needed some serious heavy-duty painkillers. Fortunately, this pharmacy was at the end of the road. I sprinted down there in a dressing gown, burst through the doors and strode up to the counter, where I was greeted with smiles by the pharmacists. Although I couldn't close my mouths, and my words were punctuated with groans, they were able to discern the problem and prescribed me some Codeine mixed with Ibuprofen to reduce the swelling and utterly numb all of my nerves. They also gave me all the advice I needed about what to avoid doing to remedy my ailment, and not drive or cycle whilst doped up to the eyeballs, which was considerate. Whatever your malady, I can't recommend these people more highly.

There were usually a couple of late middle aged women manning the fort, who were chatty and had a friendly 'dinner lady' aura to them. As you would expect, the place is a full dispensing chemist, but they also sell a range of toiletries, health items and hair products. You will find that there is a mark up on such items, compared to a super market, but you have to expect this from an independent business that clearly will do less trade. This still makes it a handy resource if you run out of toothpaste or just need a few items. They don't have a late night opening, so make sure to swing by during regular business hours.

The pharmacist in this branch is friendly and usually has most prescriptions in stock. The thing that's slightly annoying is the constant presence of security guards that watch everyone entering, leaving and browsing around the store. I appreciate they must get a lot of shoplifters and have a job to do - but no girls want to be watched whilst they're buying Lil-lets!

Superdrug at Churchill Square is one of three Superdrug branches in Brighton centre, alongside…read morestores on Western Road and in the Railway Station, it is by far the biggest and best branch, located in a rather central location in Churchill Square Shopping Centre, that however isn't saying it is a fantastic store though, it is just the best of the rest, kind of like saying Liverpool were the best of the rest after City in the Premier League, that doesn't mean they're getting a trophy. I called in here to pick up a few drinks with the selection at the Western Road store being diabolical, the selection here was slightly better with multiple fridges, however, most of which seemed to include either water or coca cola branded beverages, I presume Superdrug now have some form of deal with Coca Cola as it seems they've removed all other rivals such as Lipton Iced Tea (which I used to like) and Pepsi. I decided to pick up a Fanta Zero, having previously acquired a coupon. The staff member at the till rudely questioned whether it was still valid, and looked at it like she'd never seen a coupon before, she even questioned it with another member of staff, when it was indeed valid. This is pretty understandable, but no apology and making me feel like a criminal for using a coupon is not good service at all. They did have a satisfactory product range in regards to most other products. Poor customer service and handling of coupons, issues with the selection of drinks (the Fuze tea they have used to replace the Lipton iced teas here are also around 40% more than they sell for in supermarkets including the Co-op with the multibuy offer only making the price average) 2* - Slightly generous rating, mainly down to it being the better branch in the city and okay in some, albeit few areas.

This particular branch in the Churchill Centre however, always gives me a headache. The lights are always on full beam like I'm about to be strip-searched and interrogated for something I haven't done. And don't ask me why, but they either don't like using air con or they always have it switched to warm. Tropical heat might encourage some customers to stock up on sun lotion, after sun and flip-flops. It just makes me head for the door!
