    This is just another average 99p / £ shop like many that have suddenly popped up in the centre of…read morederby recently. This one probably has the biggest variety of stock and is in the westfield centre for convenience. The layout is quite simple and everything seems to be in a relevant place although the shopping aisles seem a little small and the shelves are usually packed very fully. The staff are not that friendly and i wouldn't really want a conversation with them anyway. They just want to get the queue down as quick as they can which is very efficient but not very customer friendly. This shop always seems to be extremely busy and it is hard to get around. There is a policy in this store: If the till operator does not give you a receipt, go to the manager and they will give you £5. Sounds good but they will always give you a receipt. The prices are very good and they offer some brill brands for the price that they offer. It is also useful when you don't have much cash and fancy a cheap drink. Probably the cheapest place in westfield.

    I think the 99p store is a revelation. They have had them in other towns for a long while but This…read moreyear we finally got one in Derby, in the new Westfield centre. It is like my new favourite hang out as I know that whatever I need I am bound to find it in there. For instance, I have discovered Mr Muscle Frozen Lime and Vinegar wipes. They would probably be about £2 in Wilkinsons and they clean anything and everything for just 99p.They also sell 2litre bottles of Pepsi for 79p. I also bought a mop and bucket for 99p each. The best thing about the 99p store compared to the £shops is the variety of lines and there is so much more choice especially with the food and confectionery aisles. Just think if you spend £10 a week in Poundland then go to the 99p store and save 10p a week and those pennies will mount up :) Back to the reviewIt is well laid out with plenty of room to get round up and down the aisles with the major plus being the till staff. They are all very polite. They always say Hello and Goodbye and Please and Thank you and they are very fast. The queues go down very quickly without fuss. Also they are trained to give you a receipt every time so if they don't, you can go to the manager and he will give you a fiver!

    The Bargain Store is literally another Poundland in my opinion but if you are looking for cheap…read moreitems then you might want to come here. From DIY tools to stationery to lunchboxes to toilet rolls, these are some of things that are on offer here. So if you don't fancy going shopping at high retailer stores, this shop could be what you are looking for. In these difficult economic times, people will be trying to save as much money as possible and there are plenty of bargains to be snapped up here. The staff are friendly and you can have plenty of banter with them. The customers I saw at The Bargain Store were able to have a conversation with the staff and so was I. You get along with the staff so easily but the most important thing is the fact there are plenty of items here at cheap prices.

    I love to shop at discount stores and this one is no let down. They have everything that you would…read moreexpect- They sell toiletries, deodorants, toothpaste, kitchen towel, camping accessories, birthday greeting products, mobile phone accessories, basic electronic equipment, I Phone add ons, dog food, cat food, pet toys, books, CD's, food etc. Pretty much everything you would need if you were stuck on a desert island. I hope they can maintain a decent quality whilst keeping price down to a minimum. I worry ethically about cheap products and the exploitation of Third World labour. I was pleased to find out that a great deal of the products on sale were made in Birmingham. I hope that the people that manufacturer the products on sale here give their employees a fair wage. If they do I will be more than happy to keep buying these products.
