It has a food hall on the ground floor, with Clydebank's main post office at the back of it. In the actual department store there is a nice wee cafe with free wifi. The store sells everything you can think of. Baby goods, toys, musical instruments, electrical appliances, fancy goods, DIY goods, clothing and book. Worth a visit for a look at the lovely old building alone.

If you live…read morenear the area and don't have time to go into the city centre, this is a miniature town from town, with a lot of major high street stores to choose from. However, you're more likely to find The More Store and New Look than topshop here, or budget pound stores than supemarkets. That being said, there is a huge Asda right outside it. It's good, but let's just say it's no Buchanan Galleries, and not worth the trip if you don't live nearby.

Growing up in Clydebank, I was always frustrated when a new Pound Shop or More Store arrived in the…read moreshopping centre. The old Clydebank FC was knocked down and made into huge retails spaces which were quickly filled by Poundstrecher and a discount shoe shop. The other side of the road became the new home of Next Clearance. "Why doesn't Clydebank have any decent shops?" I used to moan. "What about Topshop, or a Gap?" I suppose Clydebank Shopping Centre is filled with cheap shops because it is based in a town with a lot of poverty. Granted, it's not all bad, there is a decent New Look and Dorothy Perkins and a massive 24 hour Asda. However, Bankies looking for quality retailers end up just making the 15 minute drive to either Braehead or Silverburn or jump on the train to the city centre.

Wilkinsons is a recent discovery for me but I was dragged in by my mum the other day as she needed…read moreto buy some travel sized shampoos and lotions etc. This store is huge and has everything from stationery to cosmetics and home ware all at ridiculously cheap prices. It's like the Primark of the cosmetic and home accessories world and although everything is very cheap they stock all the brand names and I topped up on Listerine at only £1.50 and my favourite L'Oreal shampoos. My favourite time of the year is topping up on stationery for a new term at Uni and they had an excellent range here, again, all very reasonable priced. I purchased two folders for 97p for both, lined paper at 67p and patterned plastic wallets at only 55p! What a bargain. If you're looking for dirt cheap, good quality goodies then Wilkinsons comes highly recommended.

Home supplies are also great, cleaning products, garden products (I love the 3 for 2 on seeds!) cosmetics, everything in this store is reasonably priced.

Aldi has become the new "it" supermarket. A national newspaper the other week even had an article…read moreabout how middle class shoppers are flocking in droves from Marks and Spencer and Sainsbury's to this German gem. Fair enough. The fruit and vegetables are top notch and there are brilliant offers on quality toiletries such as Laura Mercer. But it's the weekly deals on electronics that are really worth looking out for. Just to tease us, Aldi only get several of the cameras, laptops or whatever they are flogging at the time, so you need to be at the store sharpish on the first day of the offer.

There are loads of high street name shops in the centre, which covers two floors. The centre has changed a lot since opening years ago, with the food court area changing from an all for one area, with very few well known names, to an area with a few big names with their own designated areas. Many shops have come and gone in the years but there is a good mix and it's definitely worth a visit.
