Never bought anything from there apart fromm socks, do they have decent stuff?
Trouble is, the quality is crap. You wear something and was it. It falls apart. Same with H&M stuff.

Disagree, I only really buy stuff from Primark/H&M for holiday/knocking about but it has lasted me a lot longer than I expected for the money

Never really had a propper look and everyone that shops there tells me the stuff doesnt really last long.
But tbh, i'd rather butch around tk maxx - atleast you can get some decent clothing/names for cheap prices, though it requires hard searching

Some of the stuff is good quality, some of it isnt. The jeans i have are excellent quality.
But there are somethings that are shite and will fall apart

Primark or primani as me and the mrs call it! Is ok, once you get past the pikeys and wronguns that shop there you can actually get some ok stuff there for bargain prices. Usually get bits for holiday there trainer socks t shirts 3/4 lengths etc.
was a time when i wouldnt wear stuff unless its designer, have now grown up and spend my money on things that are important like my car and house!

dont like it in there, the clothes have no style, all just too plain.
I bought a jumper from there ages ago, wore it a bit, and then they got LOADS of stock in, and every cunt was wearing it, so i use to to decorate in now.

quality is great people are just too brand conscious most of the time, and are lead to believe the clothes they pay higher premium prices for are better material or better designed often this is not the case in the lower end of the market.
Obviously not taken into account really expensive stuff.

I'm with Dave on this one, I don't really shop at Topshop/River Island/Primark as you buy a new jumper or shirt or something. Go out in it and every other guy is wearing the same thing. Would rather pay more to get something you know everyone won't be wearing.

i feel the same although don't just buy something because its designer, i have to like it. Thats why i haven't much clothes. I like different stuff like religion t-shirts etc. Plus i don't have the budget for designer stuff, so usually just get a few h&m t-shirts not ans common as top shop and the likes generally.

spending more money doesn't equate to style though or uniqueness, i tend to purchase lots of clothes from ebay they dont cost much, and not many people have them, whether or not there fashionable is in the eye of the beholder.
Take your pink t-shirt in your avatar looks exactly the same as the one my dad got for about 3 pound and i wouldn't say its very nice at all, but thats just my opinion.

Only thing I would ever buy out of shops like that is maybe boxers/socks and maybe at a push 3/4 shorts or that..
Have bought Designer clothes since I was about 14 and I can't change...I just can't  ...I couldn't do it, go into Primark and buy jeans or tshirts or that...But thats just me..

Unless you're that vain and you wont go in the shop then i dont see any problem in shopping there. I've bought some nice home stuff recently for pennies and still have some clothes i bought there last year which i wear most days.
Sainsburys have got some half decent clothes in at the mo if you want something for bumming around in

Ditto. Ive got the money to spend on expensive items of clothing, safe in the knowledge that it would be very very rare to see someone wearing an item of clothing I have on.
The girlfriend on the other hand isnt 'as' fussy and she has been to primark on a few occasions.

We don't even have a Primark. I'd have a look though if we did. I buy some stuff from H&M for a few quid, but unlike other places the stuff doesnt look like it cost a few quid. It looks good. Especially plain t-shirts, £3 a go, can't go wrong.
