I used to like it and over the past few years I’ve lost quite a bit of weight so brought a few dresses but they shrink! A cotton checked shirt dress that was lovely and loose. Washed and line dried and put it on two days later misshapen and much smaller. That cost £15 as well. So not mega cheap.
It’s handy for dd and her Harry Potter obsession but even she has stopped wanting to go in there as as others have said the material is usually weird. T shirts in a funny polyester almost shiny material or cotton that shrinks.
Yes, you’re quite right! It’s definitely not built to last and I guess one should only go there with that expectation. I just feel the price has crept up to almost match other high street. I have found the kids clothes are roughly the same price as Next (but Next are much better quality.)H&M sizing is tiny so I rarely shop in there.
Primark does what it says on the tin. It’s cheap, mass manufactured tat that is designed to only last a few wears. It’s not meant to last long, that’s the whole point. They want you to keeP going back and buying stuff on a regular basis.
I go in and get a few bits every now and again - usually a few bits of work wear or a few things for a holiday. I don’t expect any of it to last very long and therefore it doesn’t bother me when inevitably items get thrown away after a few wears or washes.
If I want good quality, value for money clothing that lasts for ages I wouldn’t be going to Primark for it!!!

Most of the kids dresses in Primark were about £8. Next do loads in their multibuy range that are £6 or 3 for £15 likewise if you put them in ascending price order there are many dresses under £10Kids clothes in Primark are usually only a few pounds per item?! I’ve never seen
Anything in there that’s as much as Next stuff
Yes there are so many things in my local Asda now that are cheaper than Primark.Except for socks I am not a fan.
You get what you pay for with Primark but I dont think they are any cheaper than say ASDA ect, but the quality is awful. Tops always end up out of shape.
My local store always puts me off because it looks like a jumble sale.
Bought a top for my three year old in primark and had to get her a size 6-7!! She’s quite tall though for her age and looks about 5 but I was shockedI buy the odd bits for my daugther from thier but find pep and co cheaper. HnM is my fave for kids stuff though, its one of the only shops that i feel has her size right, shes 5 but most places she wears 6 to 7
I've bought my grandkids lots of clothes from Primark and for the same price bought ONE item in Next .. Next definitely is not cheap unless maybe in the sales ..Yes, you’re quite right!

Next is lovely but I can’t afford it! Saw a lovely dress that I knew my daughter would love and it was about £45 if I remember correctly.
