    the OP says they were massive nearly down to his ankles
    surely you would know by looking at them in the shop roughly, that they were gonna be too big then?

    Oh get a life you saddo lol. What are you going to do even if I do tell you where I live?? Ring Sport Direct and say "scuse me , do you have a fitting room" :rotfl:you should try getting a life

    I'm fairly sure nobody here cares where you live.
    I try to help as much as I can. But I'm also honest and speak my mind.

    Smoke free since Jan 2014 :D If you want any advice on quitting please send me a PM. :)

    Its no big secret that I am in Northern Ireland so I dont mind telling people. The branch of Sports Direct that I would go to is the one at Abbeycentre,above Heatons. They do not have their own fitting room,if you wish to try on any clothes most people would go down the stairs to use the fitting room belonging to Heatons but I can confirm that this branch of Sports Direct does not have its own fitting room.
    Seems the people who laid into No-one need to start eating humble pie ;)
    For those of you who posted in one of the earlier threads that they would ring the store up to check I have two things to say to you
    1. Please do telephone the store - I am sure someone ringing and asking "hey do you have a changing room" would give the assistant a bit of a giggle
    2. Try to find a hobby as the boredom in your lives is starting to become evident!

    asking if they have changing rooms is perfectly acceptable, especially given sports direct's poor returns policy

    I just rang and they.......Nah, I didnt.
    I have been in a few Sports Direct like this. They are not a standalone store, part of a bigger store, like when you find a burtons in Debenhams. They dont have changing rooms as such, but the store it is in will.

    OP - without giving too much info on what cereal you eat (fraud and such), is this sports direct in a similar setup?

    So there is a fitting room for you to try on your garments though;)

    Fair enough if some as has been told have not got any - thats cool, i made a mistake, but to not want to give out your local store because people may rob your details is still a stupid thing to say

    Yes. I know every single one of sports direct stores have changing rooms.

    some of the smaller branches don't have fitting rooms. One large store near me does (hidden and locked like all the others), the one in my town centre doesn't (and yes i have asked if they do have any)

    Ermmmm No. There is a fitting room belonging to a completely seperate store - Heatons - who are entirely seperate. What I did say in my post is that most people would leave Sports Direct and go into Heatons with their clothes they wish to try on. It is worth noting however that this is NOT ALLOWED by Sports Direct staff. There is a sign which clearly states that items of clothing must not be taken outside of the (sports Direct) store.

    Fair enough if some as has been told have not got any - thats cool, i made a mistake, but to not want to give out your local store because people may rob your details is still a stupid thing to say

    This bit of your post eludes me I'm afraid. If you want to translate it into English though I will of course be happy to answer any specific questions it may be relating to.
