I got down to a size 10 for our wedding and was buying a 14/16 in Primark drove me nuts.
Lindy, I bought a tummy control bandeau swimsuit last weekend from Primark but thought the sizing looked somewhat small. There were long queues for the changing rooms so I bought an 18 - I would usually go for a 14 or maybe 16 in Next or M&S. Got home and found I could only just squeeze into the thing Still, I like the swimsuit (and it's 20 miles to my nearest Primark to return it!) so hopefully it will encourage me to lose a pound or two before we go away
Went into the Cardiff Primark today, and had 4 things in my basket. There must have been around 25 people in the queue for the changing rooms, so I found a mirror, took off my blouse (did have a vest on underneath), and tried them on Ended up buying just 2 plain t shirts for work and a flashy case for my sunglasses. The queue for the till was horrendous too, but went down quickly enough!
anyone know if they have aqua colouyred kaftans
Sorry Cazz didn't go to the swimwear section, as I didn't need anything.
you'll never now It would be better than any fire alarm, if they wanted to empty the shop
For once, I bought a pair of linens there without trying them on as the queue was so long. I contemplated buying a 12, a size bigger than my usual size but in the end decided to risk the 10 and I'm pleased to report that it fit so on this occasion their sizing was spot on

They had a few bluey coloured Kaftans when I went in on Friday. I tried one on but it felt really scratchy.
Thanks, can't be doing with scratchy!!!

I was in the Oxford Street flagship store a couple of months ago and in the men's area by the suits and shirts a couple of foreign guys were looking over the suits trying to work out I guess which size to pick. The jackets weren't a problem but then all of a sudden one of them dropped his trousers and started to try on the suit trousers!!! Two security guards were quickly over to them...
I must have frightened the guards off then

Going to have to pop into my local primark as I am after cheap t shirts and shorts for my holiday. Just the thought of fighting through the crowds is off-putting. It's like rush hour confined to one small space!
That's why I tend to go during the week. I get days off work during the week so you know
I love this shop but i hate the long long ques.
I prefer to shop or look around in Primark stores early morning or during the week , yes the checkouts are very busy but you get through them quickly, which is more than i can say for some shops where they haven't got enough staff to open all checkouts
What has Primark got to do with Allinson (bread), Ovaltine, Blue Dragon, Crusha, Patak's, Ryvita, Twinings and Silver Spoon to name just a few?
Primark is owned by Associated British Foods (ABF) who produce all of the above brands plus many more well know ones http://www.abf.co.uk
Yes I know I am sad and should get out more

Which is one of the reasons why they can afford to sell the stuff at the price they do - reduce the number of staff and you reduce the overhead costs. Primark is the Ryanair of the clothing industry
