Default Shops - Downturn (OT)

Alan coughed up some electrons that declared:

I predict M&S,


OK for a few cloths and nice food, but I'm appalled by their kids' clothing.
That's the one thing I would go there, but the T.Wells branch, which is one
of the bigger stores has a pathetic selection.

WH Smiths


Their alright for books (though Amazon is kicking their arse these days) and
it's the only place worth going for special interest magazines
(electronics, you PERVERTS!)

and Boots who are so out of touch with what
other retailers are doing.


I don't find them too bad - they've mostly stuck to their core products of
cosmetics, medicines and baby thingies.

Cheers

Tim
