Truth. £500 (ok. maybe slight exaggeration) suits for a fraction of the price.

My local TK Maxx is in Leyton which happens to be a good hour away. It doesn't seem worth the trip.
They recently built a new one in my local 'hood. It's surprisingly nice for a TKMaxx.
All sorted. Thanks so much. Kids will really enjoy and earns me a few brownie points in the process! Top man!
And Primark is a poor man's Penneys.

Well I was curious for the first bit and the post addressing kent was pretty condescending, as per usual. Don't call me a kid, I'm fairly certain there isn't a large age gap between us.
To be honest I didnt post it in with malicious intentions, it was just a kinda roll of the eyes....Commee on Jackben.... You're not a mastermind of the internet, just let Kent be Kent
Too far man. Too far.

Primark is woeful. I'd only purchase clothes from there if I wanted clobber for a festival that I could throw away afterwards. That's about it.
I'd visit mine if it wasn't in the most derelict area of all time. The retail park has a TK Maxx, ASDA and practically that's all next to a closed down Comet store from last year.
My pleasure man. Credit goes to IamMikeside for supplying my code in the first place!
Ever noticed how ASDAs are always built in the roughest parts of the country?

Decent hoodies, that's about it.
the only ASDA i have ever bought stuff from was one near my college and all i ever bought was lucozade
people died there
wearing one as i type
That's the thing. When something happens on the south central shopping aisles of Asda...nothing happens. Just another shopper dead. Everytime I pop over into my local one there's a police van with coppers in it staring at me and chewing gum real slowly. Why can't there be a Waitrose in every ghetto in the UK? This is unacceptable.
Asda Clapham invalidates this point.
Hahaah! Hell yeah. Wallington, Leyton. Mind you, one in Rotherham wasn't bad at all. The area was pretty decent as long as you avoided anything but the high street.

Yup. Truly one wear specials. Some of the gear looks pretty good, until you wash it once and it shrivels up or just falls to bits.
rabbits are better than ducks anyway
Our local ASDA flooded, so all the 'shoppers' made their way to my Sainsbury's instead. It was a harrowing experience and confirmed that I am now firmly middle class, whether I like it or not.
Sainsburys middle class? In my old town Sainsburys (and M&S) is where all the well-off and old people go to shop for food. It's virtually empty outside of Christmas time. Tesco is middle class territory.
EDIT: To be fair, M&S does do some amazing biscuits. I mean, heavenly good biscuits and cookies. Godamn!
inb4 all the food elitists come after you for eating at a chain. They do good stuff.
Balls to that. Go for Ginsters.
not long before he goes for the deep-fried mars bars and pizzas when he comes up north (the real north). Real Ecosse cuisine.
Really needs to step his game up. Start a e-beef with someone, get a celebrity (Dave Benson Phillips might help him out there) to respond to him on twitter and take it from there.

I purchase clothes from Primark safe in the knowledge that a small child has been forced at gunpoint to stitch my threads together.

So much cheaper though it's unreal. £1.40 for 2 pints of milk in Tesco, £1 in Asda. More to spend on interesting frivolous items.
M&S food is god tier though.
I've bought jeans from Burtons, Topshop, River Island, Next etc in the past. Never great, and I was pissing £20-£40 up the wall on each pair. Last year I sucked it up and got some Levi's on sale for £60. Best pair of jeans I've ever owned, and I can only imagine how more expensive brands would feel sitting comfortably around my arse.

they're pretty sweet, Sloppy Giuseppie for da win
Get to a chippy, chips & kebab meat or bust!
(Personally, I'm all about the chip butty with lashings of cheese).
I find Sainsbury's pretty reasonable to be honest. Decent range of stock too. Plus, I'm rather partial to their 'Taste the Difference' all butter crossaints.
I may be slightly influenced by the fact that buying mountain bike bits on eBay nets me Nectar points.
American Hot with a side of doughballs. Mmmmmmm.

For something that is literally everywhere, I can't say I have problems with any of the major pizza/Italian chains over here. You can do a lot, lot worse.
aww Dave, when it comes to their own branded stuff. Sainsburys > Morrisons = Tescos > ASDA every single time. Asda's pizzas are mostly a floppy cardboard mess and their hummus is fuckin' vile glue paste. Only reason ASDA is still on top is because they somehow get big brands (and milk) dirt cheap. Damn Walmart and their tricks.
Haven't had a chip butty in aaaages
I got some River Island skinnies. They fit well and still do today. Pretty damn good quality. But I always cringe when buying expensive stuff. :lol
I didn't know Pizza until I went to Grimaldi's in Brooklyn.

Skinny jeans? Do you even squat bro?

Leg day should never be skipped.
I squat alright. I squat gooooood in them skinnies.
We tend to too. They're actually pretty damn nice too. A bit small and thin, but a nice quick dinner.
Got me a Peace Walker shirt from Uniqlo that's too big for me now :/ Nice, soft material and everything but just baggy.
No T-Shirts are fine. I am talking about jeans. Yeah, I am not a big fan of baggy T-shirts either.
