I bought an Yves San Lauren shirt there once. Matalan saw off C&A from the
UK after 70 years. They are cheap, but not nasty. They are big and
powerful
and can negotiate with branded names.

But you have to give them your name and address before they'll let you
shop.

Lie.

You have to have a Matalan card to shop. It used to cost £1 but I
believe it you can now get one free - just fill in a form at customer
service the first time you visit. This is no different to any other
store loyalty card.

Your name and address will be used to send a mini catalogue or a
notification of 'sales' every couple of months. You may be asked if you
have an email address by the cashier at the till - my reply to this
question is always 'yes' - and nothing else.
