    Asda - loads of them have stacked the clothes section too high, you cant see daylight (or store light) soo unpleasent I cant shop there for clothes anymore.

    Tesco - a large brand new one built in Warrington have these TVs with ads all around the store as you walk down an isle it bleeps at you (in a tuneful way) but soooo annoying. It took me about half way round before i realised what the beep beep beep was and now I can only go there if i can be out in 5 mins.

    Oh there are so many annoying shops i will be rich with the money i save

    Any store that gives me an electric shock off the Trolly, Tesco does seem to be the worse for this though. so embarassing when every turns to look at you, as you shout aarrgghh and pull your hand away, u'd think i'd been shot. lol.

    maybe its just my electrifying personality ;D lmao
    Nobody can make you feel inferior, without your permission ;)

    do you mean an xmas decs shop? ;D we have one of those, but i never see it being anything else. :)
    Yup. With a singing Christmas tree outside. In fairness they haven't got that yet, I think the shops next door would lynch them, but I am sure it does not sell just Christmassy stuff all year round.

    PC flingin' flangin' World!!!!

    Never any prices near the items and a total rip off when you DO find the prices.

    And I also can't stand the singing things in xmas shops.

    A few years back I couldn't stand going into the toy and novelty shops when they had those Billy Bass fish! 'Don't Worry Be Happy' anyone?

    AAAAGGGGGHHHH!
    I'm so sexy it's a wonder my underpants don't explode.

    I know exactly what you mean, kids got a singing fish for xmas last year and every time a hide it they manage to find it. I'm sick to the back teeth of hearing " take me to the river and wash me down" or "rock the boat" just wish i could find a screw driver in this mad house to remove the batteries . :'(
