Matalan

KebLou · 30 Mar 2004, 21:23

I have a really good story to tell, I was being dragged around Matalan (I hate the shop) and well I thought if I have to walk around here I might as well do something that I could find interesting, so I went to look at the mens shirts and well what did I see. A black frilly shirt, one like Meats I nearly had a heart attack but well then I got dragged off to go home.

I have found a few gems like that in matalan.

I HATE MATALAN WITH A VENGANCE! ALONG WITH MARKS AND SPENCERS! AND TESCOS! AND ANYTHING LIKE THAT!

I love Matalan. It's such good value when I'm looking for childrens clothes. And I've had some really nice jeans from there

KebLou · 30 Mar 2004, 21:31

I'm very biased as I hate shopping, so any shop when people don't know what they want from it I hate.

CarolM · 30 Mar 2004, 22:37

Heli · 31 Mar 2004, 11:38

I don't like Matalan personally for myself, but I think it's good for mens wear and little bits and pieces, like candles and picture frames etc etc.

KebLou · 31 Mar 2004, 14:03

I don't mind Marks and sparks, its got some nice food their. I love the sushi.

black dog · 31 Mar 2004, 15:38

M & S Chocci biscuits are the best

KebLou · 31 Mar 2004, 15:59

I love the aromatic duck wrap, thats tasty(now I'm gonna be craving that all through my revision). Mmmm. I better go and get some wraps.

black dog · 31 Mar 2004, 19:43

No I must confess I'm a chocaholic. Couldn't care less about savoury food

KebLou · 31 Mar 2004, 20:20

Yeah I'm a chocoholic as well, don't tell anyone but I have a stash hidden in my room but I keep on moving it so I never know where it is.

EDDIES DICTIONARY

MARKS AND SPENCERS

DEFINITION:

Old frumpy woman shop filled with hordes of old frumpy women trying to kid themselves that what they're buying is modern.

MATALAN

DEFINITITION

A glorified charity shop bursting to the brim with useless things, mothers with screaming offspring. NEEDS LEATHER!!!!

TESCO

DEFINITION

Moody shop "assistants" who throw you dirty looks when you ask where the shampoo is. How the hell I am supposed to know its the row i've just been down. Also bursting with little evil toddlers and stressed unhappy mothers.

Guess what mood i'm in!

Nah, i got a walkman from Argos (why oh why can't this be a simple shop?!?) so am in a good mood! weeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!

KebLou · 31 Mar 2004, 22:17

WHSmith
If you don't get some kid who doesn't know what on earth they're talking about you get some moody fool who wont even answer a question politely.

ARGOS

DEFINITION

Oh they just had to make buying simple things akward! I panicked thinking I was buying this huge stereo system when all I wanted was a walkman when typing in the catalogue number. How was I to know it didn't order these things? I honestly thought it ordered the things, that little yellow machine.

KebLou · 31 Mar 2004, 22:27

Lol. Oh well. this is my definition:

Argos
Waste of time half the time they say they have something in stock when they don't, and its a rip off you can find half the stuff in there cheaper elsewhere.
