I am forever going into Martins because the post office is housed in here. Over the months I have found that the amount of stock in the shop has increased a lot and there is more and more floor space being used to house this stock. This results in thinner walking areas and when I take a pushchair into the shop I can often get stuck. The shop used to sell papers and sweets etc but now there is a mass of toys, cards, balloons, homewares and anything else I think they might think of to chuck on a shelf.
The prices are reasonable compared to other shops but I think they are losing their direction and trying to sell anything and everything, making this particular shop look more like a car boot sale. read more
