Debenhams is always my first stop when i'm looking for anything. They sell menswear, perfume, bags…read moreand jewellery downstairs, as well as having a Game in the store too, then up the escelator (or lift) to womenswear, homewear, underwear and kids wear. They have a cafe too, up a fllight of stairs from womenswear, or up in the lift. The womenswear section has a dorothy perkins, wearhouse, principals and oasis as well as the Debenhams brands such as Rocha John Rocha, Red Herring and my favourite, Julien Macdonald. They regularly have sales of upto 70% off, and it's definately woth catching these early for quality items at bargain prices. The Debenhams Classic section of the store is great for cheap basics, although these items aren't the most beautiful ever, they will be the start of a staple wardrobe. I recently bought a grey pencil skirt for less than £10. It's perfect for work! There is a free personal shopper in the lincoln store, who you can book in advance. She's very good, knowing quickly what will suit you, and she's not at all pushy like some sales women are. She's not intimidating either, I went to her after i put on a lot of weight, i'd gone upto a size 18/20 and didn't know what suited me anymore and she was so kind and patient and showed me so many ways to dress up basic items so i could have a whole new wardrobe without spending much (she even offered to take me out and show me lincoln because i said i'd just moved!) It's a lovely big store, and although it's not really cheap, when the sales are on, some real bargains can be had. They're also very accommodating when it comes to returns of faulty goods etc.

Situated in St Marks Close to the city centre and the university is one of my favourite department…read morestores. It has a massive range of products; perfumes and cosmetics, watches, jewellery, clothes - mens, womens and childrens, lingerie, toys and games, household goods - cutlery, pots, pans, fabrics, in fact all the sorts of things you'd expect to find in a department store. In Grimsby we have a rather nice House of Fraser Store but I do prefer to come to Lincoln to go to Debenhams because it has everything House of Fraser have and more, it's also laid out better - it almost has a bazaar feel to it with lots of little nooks and crannies where bargains are often to be found, the staff are great too. I must not forget to mention the store restaurant - it blows most other department store restaurants away. The choice is pretty good and the prices aren't bad at all. The layout is pretty good and it is fairly sizeable too, so even when it's busy you can usually find a table and the staff are brilliant - which when you've got a child with you who suddenly decides they are hungry you need fast helpful service and that's exactly what you get.

Staff friendly and polite, only bad thing is pushing you to have a store card, which the staff have to do anyway so its not technically their fault.

New Look in Lincoln is the best one i have been in. This is because the shop is divided into…read moredifferent sections and it is easy to find what you want. The staff are friendly, take care when handling products to purchase and take questions and queries on bored. I find it very good how when you walk out of the changing rooms, a staff sees you and comes to give advice whether if a different size, colour or other things such as accessories will look better and make the person more 'trendy'. When purchasing an item, the staff at the till will talk to you and ask if you will be 'doing anything nice' due to the things which is about to be bought. New Look is practically more wardrobe and everything ticks my expectations and nothing i can think off is an issue. The best shop ever and not too pricey prices. Although, no one wants to pay more then they can.

TK Maxx says the cark park there is nothing to do with them but they actually benefit from it . My wife shops there regularly and was recently hit with a £60 fine to be paid within 14 days . On average she spends £1000-£2000 a year in this store . She wont be shopping there again . I've appealed the fine and emailed the store as well as their Head Office in London as well as the Council and the Lincoln Conservative MP ( no response ) and left comments on Nextdoor website mostly have been supportive . I intend to fight this fine and if need be parade around this store with a placard . A tip . Don't shop there

As someone who visits a LOT of TK Maxxes, I can say that this is one of the best that they have…read more It was only built a couple of years ago, to replace the very cramped old one next to Mothercare, and the improvement is vast. It is large and spacious, with a mezzanine section housing menswear and homewares upstairs. There's a lift available, and loads of free parking. My main gripe is having to use £1 coin for a trolley. In most stores they'll lend you one, but in Lincoln you're stuffed if you don't have cash on you! Very annoying if, like me, you were planning on filling it with bargains and end up having to carry everything over your arm. Such a minor issue but major inconvenience, so be warned: take a quid with you!

I wouldn't recommend going into this store unless you have a bit of time on your hands. Sometimes…read moreit feels a bit like an upmarket jumble sale - items everywhere, not always in any kind of logical order! That said, if you do have the time to browse, you can pick up some real gems - anything from 'designer' clothes at a bargain basement price to cheap trainers to kitchenware, gym gear, luggage and beauty accessories. You have to wade through rubbish to get to the gems - but one man's (or woman's) junk is another man's treasures! I've got some real bargains at this store before so if you're not in a rush and don't have clear ideas in your head of what you're after, I would persevere because the stock is regularly updated and you might just find something fabulous! But if you go in there with a really set idea of what you want you could leave disappointed.
