This probably belongs in the other thread, but the Claire's shop in Chesterfield is seriously stuck in the late 90's.
But seriously though, it just seems like they sell overpriced tat to me. I understand they are targeting a certain demographic but I am not exactly sure whom. I highly doubt kids ...

Re: The Unofficial Sainsbury's Thread
But, most importantly, little old bits of Sainsbury’s design keep getting exposed as they refurbish things, including some lovely orange and white subway tiles that have been revealed when peeling back a fake wall. I’m sure they’ll be covered up again by some shelving in a couple of days, but ...

Re: Adverts that irritate and entertain
That Luzozade ad that seems to have been on for way too long now drives me insane. I have to press mute when it comes on.

Wow, this is certainly not what I expected. Some of this stuff actually looks quite nice. That Driscoll's display though is like going back in time with the artificial plants.

Re: Yet another Morrisons thread
I've noticed a few stores have started to get very utilitarian metal displays for produce. On first sight I thought they were left over from the 'misted veg' era but I'm pretty sure they're new.
One of those stores had a self service order terminal for the Pizza Counter, not unlike the ones they ...

Re: Old supermarket signage
Somebody recently uploaded this 'urban exploration' type video of the old Wilko building in Sheffield:

Re: Old supermarket signage
Going back to the topic of Little Chef, the Markham Moor North store near Retford was split in half in 2014 to make the right hand side into a Subway, which only closed last year. When they removed the Subway signage the original red paintwork was exposed. The left side, which is now a KFC, still ...

I didn't see any of those SELs though - could potentially be an error. I have ...
