Wythenshawe Market is one year older than me. That's pretty old for a market. Not telling you how…read moreold exactly, but clearly it's testament to its enduring popularity. People come from far and wide for the wonderful produce here as the market predominately sells food. Everything from specialty cheese, deli products, chicken, fish, fruit and veg and baked goods can be bought here. However, there's also some great fashion bargains to be had on the clothes and shoe stalls as well as household and electrical goods. My favourite stalls sell great fabrics, knitting and haberdashery items and I've also found the cobbler handy for those shoe repairs!

This is quite a nice branch of Tesco, located in Handsforth Dean, this is a big branch of Tesco,…read moresituated right next to a huge branch of Marks and Spencer. This store can be quite a nightmare to get to, being situated on a row of 5 or so roundabouts, especially when traveling in direction from North Manchester. This store has a small customer service desk, which is up to satisfactory standard yet could look much more welcoming and more like "the centre of the store" They was a Clubcard Machine, where you can print off vouchers and coupons however it seemed that it didn't work hence I couldn't log on and the problem was experienced by others as well, they was no staff around to know about it or even seem like it is being fixed. This store has a very big free from section, one of the biggest I have seen frozen-wise and helps to put many other branches (especially Middleton) to shame, their range was so big that is is worth traveling for and even includes some items that I can't even buy online at Tesco's website. They was a few disgusting things regarding this store, including an iced coffee, which was drank out of and then put back, drink was still in it, but they was not all of it left and it was open, I am glad I saw this before drinking out of it!!!! This store seems to be over 2 floors and is quite a nice store entering, with a standard Tesco looking including the yellow/ white colour flooring. I want to give this store 3 stars, mainly because of its' free from range and size, however I can't give any more because - The Clubcard machine was faulty - Customer Service could be slightly larger and more welcoming, especially for such a large store - The disgusting incident with the iced coffee - I have not had a good look around this store yet, as I just ran in to check the free from ranges while in the area.

Having been a secret shopper for many years, this is by far the worst service I have witnessed.

The situation was handled very poorly and I was appalled by how the cashier spoke to the customer as if they were children.

First of all, cheap cheap cheap! You can find good products( private comany brand products) much cheaper than ordinary supermarkets. (N.B. Often near end of out of date though) I have got a Jamie Oliver spice with in a lovely tin for 30 p or someithng .Discovery tacos kit for a quid etc Swiss chocolate, jar of tomato sauce, can of tuna, Pringles etc The staff who served me looked so unpleasant with thier work and never says hello or thank you at check out. They just look so grampy and hate thier work. If you can be patient with customer service ( they have a customer service counter though), it is good place to do some bargain hunting!I go once a month or two monthes..

You can get things like tins of peas for 10p or chocolate bars for 15p so if you buy things in bulk you can save a lot of money indeed.

You can save a lot of money indeed with careful shopping so I would recommend B&M highly for bargain hunters.

That means there are loads of bargains to be found but you really have to search for them. And if you find something in a size that isn't quite right, it can take ages to move along the rail and find the same item in your size as clothes are stocked by size, and not the individual garment. Personally, I just can't stick at going through everything to find something good. I'm into going into a shop, choosing something quickly and just buying it. None of the sorting through loads of junk faff.

Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet is HUGE! - the UK's largest outlet centre with 145 stores. It is run…read moreby McArthurGlen in the Ellesmere Port area of Cheshire. It's easy to get to via car, being just off the M53, however when using public transport it is much more difficult, there is an irregular bus service which takes around 25-30 minutes from Chester Station. The centre is pedestrianised, clean and with a nice design after getting out of the car park. I do think signage around the centre could be improved, It can be hard if you're looking to visit a specific store/restaurant. There's free parking, but this is common with many out of town shopping parks anyway, but still, always a useful thing to note. There is a good number of places to eat and drink including Caffe Rouge, Carluccio's, Mowgli, Pizza Express, Wagamama, YoSushi Places for coffee include the usual suspects (Costa, Starbucks, Pret etc) Many of the shops do have good deals, obviously, not everything is a great deal, but you can get some low-price clearance goods here Brands with locations here include Adidas, Cadbury's, Clarks, Calvin Klein Haribo, Hugo Boss, Jack and Jones, Lacoste, Nike, Next and M&S, just to name a handful. One of the best places to shop in the area, and one of the better outlet centres in the country, they're missing a huge market though with the public transport connections being so weak. Having a better guide around the centre would also be a big help. 4* PRO TIPS: Most of the centre does have shelter to keep you dry on a rainy day, it's a place much better on a summery day, but no need to panic if you need to shop during bad weather. If visiting with kids, McDonald's is a good shout, they even have an outdoor play area right outside, and they'll even bring the food to you there.

'Outlet Shopping Village' just outside Fleetwood. Shops include Mountain Warehouse, Thornton's,…read moreCadbury, M & S Outlet, Denby, Antler, Gap, Past Times, Paper Mill and many more. Several of the shops are meant to be discounted and some do seem to have sale prices a lot of the time but I wouldn't really describe it as chock full of bargains by any means. There's a food court which overlooks a pretty marina with its assortment of yachts and boats. A MacDonalds on the outskirts and a Costa Coffee within the village itself add to the eating and drinking possibilities. I'd describe it as a nice place to visit for a morning or afternoon out if you're in the area but you may be disappointed if you travel many miles to shop here as it doesn't compare to serious shopping venues such as the Trafford Centre and in all honesty I don't think it would make any claim to.

I agree with the previous review: it's a really good place to visit but if you're comparing it to…read moreMcArthur Glen or any of the larger outlets you'll be a bit disappointed. It's got the essential M&S and Next Clearance though, so I was happy enough! The play area is a massive bonus for those of us with men and kids: one place to dump them both for a couple of hours of shopping in peace! It's not the best in the world but it is perfectly adequate and if it's somewhere you don't visit often then there would be plenty to keep the kids amused. I liked the fact that at the end there's a sort-of marina, so you can watch the boats (ok, I only did it for about 2 minutes then got bored and went to buy chocolate in Thorntons instead, but I liked the idea of it). Definitely worth a visit if you're having a good old British holiday in Blackpool and want a bit of civilized retail therapy.

For us a new "find" since we just relocated (escaped?) from the USA and moved to our dream home…read morejust 5 miles away from this shopping area in Burton on Trent. We just happened to notice it yesterday as we went for lunch at the Winery nearby (did I say our favorite restaurant in the region?!?!) Today we stopped by to have a browse on a beautiful sunny day. The area is lovely, seems to be a reasonable amount of parking nearby. It is basically an extensive, light and airy shopping arcade. Many wonderful shops like Marks and Spencer's (including their wonderful Food Hall), various clothes stores such as Primark but many upmarket ones too, WHSmiths, Boots, and so much more - eating places galore for pastries, coffee and snacks. Good experience, loved it - we WILL be back very soon (next week we are planning). Rain or shine (since it is all covered) this is a real shopping gem!
