Very good very! Must try harder primark!

So I haven't had time to post a full entry this week but I just quickly want to review the new service from very and my quick whizz around primark today.

So a couple of weeks ago I found the most gorgeous feather cape on very.co.uk which I NEEDED! I know this is against my new ethos but I simply couldn't live with out it. So I ordered it on line and came across the delivery option called- collect+, it's free delivery and they'll deliver to a range of shops involved in the scheme near to you. Within 2 days I received a text message saying my parcel had arrived, so off I went to my local costcutter (my nearest shop in the scheme). Waiting for me was my lovely parcel and after giving the man my order number and proving who I was the cape was mine! All in all an excellent service, really quick and free delivery and free returns, what more could you want?!

So I popped into primark today (it's hard to resist) just to look around. I found three lovely things I wanted but put back due to the extortionate prices, what happened to primark prices?

1-Thin knitted union jack jumper £15 and it felt like it would shrink in one wash and that the material would go squeaky, if you know what I mean?

2- A light silver and gold Cardigan £13 way over priced.

3- Finally a lovely tweed caped jacket- very Sherlock Holmes like with a purple shot through it. Not waterproof, probably not warm and was £35 no way!! I just couldn't and wouldn't pay that for that. In old primark prices it would gave been £14 tops, do they think we haven't noticed increases?

More posts to come as I tackle the shoe room.... Xx
