You have to be so very careful at primark- try on before you buy, it will save you time, anxiety & money in the longrun.
The queues at customer service are phenomenal which puts off people returning goods, & that adds up to wasting money as you can't be bothered to wait 45mins to get your £8 return, whilst your parking costs add up. I saw apregnant woman collapse in the queue this year, maybe there should be a warning sign like they have at funfairs ( not for the faint hearted )....

OMG!!! :eek::eek::eek: Glad my local Primark is not that mental. It's got four floors and is always pretty busy but I've never had to queue for more than 5 minutes at the most at the tills or at customer services. The changing rooms hardly ever have queues!

Their fitted sheets are fantastic. Easiest to iron of all I have ever had. Think about £4 for a double

I agree. They last well too.

lol. This happened to me in a changing room of a posh boutique. The lady kept shouting "are you ok?". I should have said "no I'm flippin not ok", but being British I said "yeah i'm fine" and just kept wriggling praying it didn't rip . Came out all red and flustered.

LOL :eek::eek:,
i was glad id tried it on at home and not in the shop, not enough room in the cubicles to get myself out for sure hehe, i thought i was going to have to wait until DH got home and get him to pull it off, I am now thinking if i find one in the lemon print, i may get a size up (12) and sew a zip in it, its just such a lovely dress :cool:

Lemon dresses are also now in Nottingham store. Looks like stock has been sent out to stores finally.

I needed some crop trousers so bought two pairs yesterday, one in linen, one in combat cotton style....

Have to say the linen ones do fit but unfortunately being 100% linen they aren't that soft Though being cheap and they fitted i'm prepared to make do...:D The combat style ones anyway be warned i'm a size 10 and they didnt' come close to closing so i think i would have needed a 14 or a 16, needless to say they will be going back....

The lemon dresses are in store now but to be honest i didn't think they looked as good as the picture....The style would never suit someone with curves like me but i didn't like the shape at all....

Keep at the linen ones, i've been getting them for years, after a wash and an iron they look better on than my oasis ones

That's what worries me, the fact they are 100% linen will make them hard to iron! :rotfl:

Have to say the M and S ones are better that i got a couple of years ago but unfortuantely they've changed their sizing which means i can't get a pair to fit unless they're too long or too wide around the waist....
