    The woman's underwear is also quite good. They do the larger sizes, reasonably priced and quite pretty. Not had much trouble with breaking or when washed. IMO

    They won't refund or exchange though if it has undies with it!

    I love Primark too, but have to limit my visits!! Not sure if this thread is a good idea,it will be tempting me in! Lol

    Baby body suits / vests - these are such good quality compared to other brands. Much better fit, lasted longer and cheaper to start with.

    Baby trousers - my little man had very long legs at one point, so i had real trouble finding trousers that stayed up but were long enough. I had 4 pairs of 6-9months Next jeans given to me and all four although the same size on the tag were completely different sizing in reality. One pair he's only just grown out of and he's 14months!

    Baby pjs - again fantastic fit, easy to put on and take off.

    Baby socks - lovely designs, including trainer socks which my firend couldn't find anywhere until i said "Primark do them"

    Hooded towel and mit set - not bad size and better than most others, although the best one i have is from Lidl!

    Women's vests - at one point they had a lovely range of secret support vests / strappy tops. very comfy and did actually support!

    I dont think the quality is as bad as you say in the original post. Some things are not so good, which you can tell by looking at them but my son (teenager) has had many hoodies, t shirts, pyjamas, underwear etc from the mens section and they do last well. The only think I would say is not to put hoodies in the tumble dryer as they will shrink.

    also the boys linen shirts are really good and always look smart with a pair of jeans they normally have a t shirt to go with them and average about £4-£6. jeans are good to my son who is 11yrs (buy size 12-13 tho as tall) can get jeans in there for about £8 and are just as good as next
    have now given up smoking since feb 13th 2014 loving the money I'm saving

    I can highly recommend their leggings, not the ones that are on tables, but the ones that are slightly more expensive (£4) and packaged within a cardboard sleeve, in my Primarni they are hanging up on a wall near the underwear. Theyare called 'control leggings'. They are really good quality, wash well, and don't get horrible see-through areas from stretching.

    great idea,i got myself some boots yestrday for £5,down from £18,have put away for next winter,they also had some that were £30 reduced to £5,not in my size though.had the big handbags at £5,lots of different colours.had loads of kids boots £1 and £2 and the canvas lace up pumps fpr £1.there are kids fleece pjs for £1.Loads of rails in the middle of isles filled with alsorts,tops,jackets,jeans but as usual most were in sizes 8/10 no good for me .Also bought daughter denim look flat shoes for £3.50,great for summer.i agree about kids tops,for around £1 they are perfect nursery wear and find they wash quite well although the leggings tend to go a bit baggy.

    Just thought of something else - bath towels - we bought ours there over a year ago and they have lasted really well.
