Next Outlet Stores - Any Good??

nearlyrich

I have used the stores at Manchester, Cheshire Oaks, Leeds & Fleetwood and I find that sometimes they have loads of bargains and at other times they have nothing I like. I do like Next suits for work and I bought 3 last year for less than £30 each. Recently I bought quite a few tops for £3 to £5 some of them had been £20 in the stores recently.

I just call in when I am passing and if I see something I like in my size I get it you can always take it back no problem to any store if you don't like it on.

Went to Clarks village in Street where they have a Next discount store. My God was it good! All children clothes £2 and the most expensive woman's clothes were £5. Am so pleased we trekked out there as I saved an absolute fortune. Strangely although it was busy there weren't huge queues at the tills and it was all painless.
The Body Shop there also had lots for £1 and Clarks had most shoes half price.

I also discovered that they actually import clothes especially for Next Clearance which aren't of the required quality for normal Next shops.

Next are also launching a cheaper brand of fashion clothing called LIME, which will be sold separately in new stores branded LIME.

As they build up the LIME product range, they're selling it in Next Clearance.

Presumably this is helping them to decide which lines they will stock in the new stores.

I was told ( don't know how reliable) that if something is ordered from the Next catalogue, and returned it isn't put back in stock, but goes to the Outlet stores.
Not sure about this. First time I went bought some real bargins, but couldn't find same product in Next store or Catalogue - unless it was from previous yr.
Phoned my local outlet and said they should have whole lot of new stock in this week. Must admit it has been rubbish for weeks.

I wouldn't bother, it's a ripoff! I went to the one in Glasgow last week, have to say I've seen better clothes at jumble sales, and displayed better too! The clothes on rails were actually dearer than much nicer clothes at the main Next stores sales. At my local high street Next recently, I got 6 fab tops for 30 quid!

I'll admit that the clearance shops are like jumble sales but everything in there is either £2 or £3 so therefore far cheaper than the clothes in the Next stores.
