I swear shops have become such an unpleasant experience. It’s like they know the High Street is on it’s last legs and no-one gives a tit anymore.
The shops are a mess, there’s always random alarms going off (ahem Sainsbury’s!), constant tannoys with ear-splitting squeaks from the sound system (Zara last week), back to back ads (Superdrug bleeping radio) and feral kids.
Noise pollution aside, the shops are a MESS, there’s always crap everywhere and sizes out of stock. Then you go in the changing rooms, half of them are being used as storage and the rest have dust plumes rolling along the floor.
Nothing about shopping is nice anymore, I used to love it and spend all my teen years in Topshop and New Look. Now I just shop online….
