Shops that do my head in
Comments

I forgot to add "any shop with a lot of background noise especially music pumping away in the background ..." Have walked out of shops before now because I can feel my balance going with the assault on my ears!That is exactly what happens to me in HMV, Virgin and other music shops! I thought I was the only one! Now I have to buy CDs online, which is cheaper and I don't impulse buy so much.Signature removed for peace of mind0 -
Sports soccer should make their aisles bigger. Takes me ages to get around their shops.
Also the shops that start playing their Christmas cd's at the beginning of November#39 - Save £12k in 20250 -
I too noticed that WHS has gone all dark and cluttered. The displays are too tall and are blocking out all the light. Staff are nice and helpful though.
M&S. No staff on shop floor, long checkout queues, staff chatting and overpriced goods.
Tesco Customer service dept. I think the people who work on this desk are specially choosen. You have to have a proven record as a Sales Prevention Assistant, be able to grunt and look at you disbelievingly and disinterested at the same time and take 30 minutes to work the till to issue a refund! :P
Iceland - oh they are lovely. Always find you the special offers from out the storeroom. Always have a little chat at the tills. All their veg is GM free.

Agree about WHS!!
Tesco & Sainsburys: they made our local stores into megastore things and it takes 45 minutes to do the shopping. We now go to Morrisons (Safeway) and it only takes us half the time!
Currys: You see what you like then it takes half an hour in the queue to buy it!0 -
My least favorite shops are:-
Tesco Metro. The ques are ridiculous
Scotmid (co-op) where they stick still stick sweets at the check outs.
Superdrug. They only have one person on the till at lunch time and there is allways a que.
Greggs one person serving one person making sandwhiches - que out of the doorTreat everyday as your last one on earth! and one day you will be right.0 -
C'mon it's QUEUE not QUE!
