    Where do YOU shop?

    Been noticing how many threads end up having someone having a go at Topshop/Topman and the lovely Burtons and other shops that cater for all those people who like to look exactly like everyone else :rolleyes:

    I like Topman, simply because I don't wear incredibly expensive stuff that makes you look good (I don't need to :p), I like it because the plain t-shirts and jeans that they do are in my price range and will do for me. Hey, I'm a student-to-be I need to budget!

    So since you lot keep going on about how shit they are...what shops DO you go to? What's your favourite? Go on...tell me your least favourite shop too, maybe Rebel Rebel 'cos it's full of charvs :D

    PS. Yes, I'm bored and no-ones posting much, needed a thread that everyone can reply to :)

    :lol: NO!! I don't mean least favourite shop for shopping, maybe least favourite just because you wish it didn't exist. McDonalds would be another example :)

    You're thinking of Lee...he hangs around young girls shops, but he assures me it's because he likes to keep up with current fashion :D ;)

    Aye... psyche amongst others... not been clothes shopping in boro for a good couple of years :eek:

    As for where I shop... everywhere and anywhere... if I like something I will buy it, i'm not arsed in the slightest by brands... although I did spend a lot of time in Period Clothing a small while ago... thought it'd closed down til I went in t'other day! :up:

    Mainly Union. USC occasionally have one or two decent bits in (if you look hard enough), as does Strand. Triple S is good for soem stuff too

    Aston in the Metro Centre can be decent too, again if you look hard enough.

    I haven't shopped for clothes properly in a few months, but came across some cool little shops in Liverpool the last time I was there that I'm dying to spend some money in... ;)

    Generally just end up shopping in River Island mainly for trousers, then occasionally places like Strides/USC/That place downstairs in the Metro Centre that I can never remember the name of....something "Venture" for t-shirts/shirts etc.
