Debenhams (London)

Advantages: Big, varied ranges
Disadvantages: can be very hard to find staff!, v busy on saturdays!

...GALORE!!! The main branch of Debenhams in London is on Oxford Street (-closest tube is Bond Street on the Central Line and Jubillee). Typical to most department stores you enter and are greeted by an array of bright lights and freshly fragranced cosmetic experts. Paszt the cosmetics department you move deeper into the store and get a a glimpse of the breathtaking size of thi department store as the centre consists of a massive network of escalator ...
...there are all very varied, Debenhams has a designer range aptly named "Designers at Debenhams" and the fabrics that make up these ranges are exquisite but don't just trust me, go and see for yourself!!! And when the shopping is done, there are at least 2 restaurants for you to relax and admire a hards days work of shopping! ... Read review

Advantages: Wide variety of items, sales frequent
Disadvantages: Common size clothes get sold out fast

Debenhams is indeed one of favourite shopping stores with its constant sales and discount vouchers available. Recently, my friend bought a perfume and was given two fiver discount vouchers. Well, I got the opportunity to use one of the vouchers to buy myself a perfume too. Smart that Debenhams allow only one voucher against a sale transaction. To my opinion, things in Debenham is worth buying only on sale. I was shocked to learn that a shirt my friend ...
...the following week. But the lucky thing for him is that his size has sold out, so no disappointment. It shows that items in Debenham really get sold out fast. If you are not the same common size, such as M, well lucky you. Most sales items are either Large or Extra Large...So, my advice is wait for a sale if you are big-sized, otherwise buy it when you like it. ... Read review

Advantages: A brilliant city that has everything
Disadvantages: Expensive

..., Thai and so on. I’m sure you all get the picture. Shopping & Fashion: ******************* London will spoil you in this department, there are lots of shopping areas scattered all over London, which offers everything you, can possibly want. Central London has hundreds of fashion department stores and smaller designer outlets. Selfridges, Harrods, Debenhams, John Lewis and many more. Parks: ****** Regents Park is my favourite park in London, this park is complete in everyway, you have London Zoo on the premises, lakes, restaurants, acres of playing field, and beautiful wildlife. Regents is not the only park in London – Hyde park, St James Park, Holland Park, all acres of playing field and pleasure to take walks in. Accommodation: ************** Superb hotels and hostels to choose from – ranging from 2 star to five star... Read review

Advantages: Free parking, lots to see and buy, extensive selection of food choices, excellent toilet facilities, child care, a juice bar!
Disadvantages: Can be expensive and VERY busy

...taste as long as it is expensive. The big names are represented by Boots, WHSmith, Debenhams, BHS and Selfridges (the first Selfridges outside London, no less, I realised why when I saw the inflated prices). Their customer service is pretty exceptional and they keep coming up with new ideas. One of my favourites is their Family Badge scheme. This consists of matching ID tags for parents and children – so that children are easily located if they wander off. There is a children’s entertainment programme. Basically this consists of a crèche for 2-8 year-olds (there is an entry charge) and a child-size teddy in a car, which zooms around the shops occasionally. At one end of the centre is the Festival Village. This area contains smaller shops and stalls – and my juice bar! Oh, was this worth waiting for. I had a carrot... Read review

Advantages: I live here
Disadvantages: Some shops aren't here, the weather

...Cavern. Whether you want to party or just relax, you're guaranteed to find something to do in Liverpool. I'd recommend: So many of the bars but one I really enjoy is Rat & Parrot at Queen's Square. SHOPPING: Liverpool is good for shopping but it lacks some of the shops you'd find in London or Manchester, e.g. Mango, Debenhams and Selfridges. That said, I've never found it to be a problem - I'm sure any woman could still spend all day shopping here. Most of the shops are located on Church Street (Marks and Spencer, Next, Topshop, HMV and others), although a wander along to Bold Street (Karen Millen) or Lord Street (French Connection, GAP) as well as St. John's Precinct and Clayton Square is recommended if you're going on a major spree. There are plenty of cafés to rest your weary feet at - I highly recommend Liverpool bakers Sayers... Read review
