There probably aren't many shops that I've been in more often than Smiths in Llandudno. A good part of my pocket money was spent here on LPs and comics. However it no longer holds the appeal it used to.
It's on two floors with cards, stationary, papers and mags and CD's and DVD's downstairs and books upstairs. The fixtures and fittings downstairs are quite high which allows a lot of stock to be displayed but it also makes the shop floor a bit dark and claustrophobic.
I suppose the problem is that Smiths are no longer as cheap as they used to be and there is now more competition on the high street with HMV and Card Outlet amongst others moving into town and Asda opening up a much bigger store a few years back.
It's handily located if you're after a paper but most of what they sell you can pick up cheaper elsewhere. read more
