    Just been in today as I have an up and coming job interview. Picked up a lovely jacket and dress for a tenner each. Wont be wearing it much but you cant grumble at £20 for a suit! They've got lovely stuff - jackets, skirts, trousers, dresses and waistcoats. :)

    I'm wearing a pair of smart-ish Primark trousers now - wear them for work every week and they're at least 5 years old.
    Love the bras,the packs of ladies socks for £2 (me and 2 DDs wear them -all black so no matching!) the nail varnish is as good as any brand I've tried, the accessories in general, the control leggings and the jeans.
    Don't like the footwear other than flip flops and slippers, the excess of naff print T shirts and the winter coats which seem to bobble and lose shape very quickly.
    Oh and I'm 50, so it's not just for kids and teens!

    Bought towels in sale probably about 4-5 years ago. They're still going strong and a good quality even though I think i only paid about £10 for two bath sheets and two hand towels.

    I second the towels but they've started doing a luxury range, £9 for large bath towel. They're thick, fluffy and wash so well. i bought them as a second set for when my best ones are in the wash but they're even better so i use them all the time!!

    Luxury percale bedding is also worth a buy if you see any, washes very well, excellent quality.

    just a reply re my earlier comments, the people that bought primark gifts it wasnt that they couldnt afford to buy from elsewhere. it was because they were being cheapskates. Anyway rant over... great thread:)

    still cant help thinking a gift is a gift and you dont have a right to complain........ maybe they liked what they bought and thought you would not really nice to say its crap! maybe i am to kind......
