November 26, 200817 yr Perhaps there's no decent soap retailers in the town centre. A niche market, perhaps. I think it's just genetic that some folk look grubby. I suppose it's easy to spot them though.
November 26, 200817 yr They are shit coz they sell a lot of nothing. Music, HMV etc shits on it. Piss poor Toys, there's ToysRus. Clothes, shite. PC/xbox Games, ten a penny. Sweets, papers, mags, again, ten a penny. They sell the same stuff in Asda and Tesco for less, and you dont have to be surrounded in street filth and pay ?4 to park up to buy it. Shut it down, well past its best.
