MacArthur Glen Cheshire Oaks is the name of the outlet. Some fantastic things to be had, as long as you don't go with anything that you want already 'in mind' as you might be disappointed. Google the outlet village, it's near Ellesmere Port.

Chester itself is a nice shopping experience, and there are also some interesting touristy attractions too.

I second Cheshire Oaks.

But if you want to head to Manchester, you could go to the Trafford Centre. It is motorway almost all the way from Wolverhampton (apart from the bit of dual carriageway as you come off the M6). It is also useful if the weather is bad, as it is all under cover. Lots of shops, restaurants and also a cinema.

Chester has a variety of shops with it being a city, but again it can be a bit hit and miss... Stockport is quite good, although some class that as being Manchester not Cheshire. All the other towns are not quite large enough to have vast shopping areas xxx

Cheshire Oaks definitely worth a try.
Otherwise for normal shops (ie current season, normal high street shops) all at once place - Trafford Centre.

Especially if you go in a week, not at the weekend, you will be able to move more freely. Both places can be very busy at the weekend!!
