Primark? What shop...

[Hitman]

Heyyy,

I'm in need of some more clothes and I've got £120 to spend... just wondering where's the best place to go? I wanna try and get as much as I can for £120, obviously, so I was thinking Primark (heard it's cheap, only been to get a vest LOL). Are the jeans/shirts/tshirts any good? What prices are they and what quality? I was looking at like River Island and they're quite expensive... like I could get a couple of pairs of jeans and a couple of tops...

So my main questions are is Primark any good (availability wise), what are the prices for a pair of jeans or a shirt and is it better to buy more cheap stuff from Primark or less stuff of better quality elsewhere?

Thank you and good night.

check out topman & asos as atm they both have decent sales. quality is pretty good and prices aren't that expensive.

has probably the best priced clothes on the high street. Their shirts are really good as for T-shirts (Anything from £2 to £10). However, the jeans from Primark are not very good quality. There is a huge price gap between jeans on the high street I have noticed. Jeans in primark cost between £10 - £20, compared to £30/40+ in River island & Topman etc.

To summarise, get t-shirts/shirts & jumpers from Primark (cheap & good quality) & jeans from elsewhere (yes you might be paying a little more, but the quality is there)

it's better to pay £50 for something you will wear 50 times than paying £20 and wearing it once!!

Edit: have you considered online shopping? There is normally better offers on there especially for the upper priced range clothes

Primark is a decent shop and the quality is good. Try new look and asos they're quite good

Bank - Henleys - Republic - Topman all have amazing clothes.
With that money I'd be at Bank..

Primark - Your tops - 3 pounds
- Trousers - a tenner?

Depends what your looking for really as in some outfits to go out in every so often or a whole new wardrobe?

Depends how big your primark is but sometimes you'll go to and there'll be loads, other times barely anything. The big stores usually have a nice variety though.

If you're looking for things which will last, I wouldn't bother going there because it just won't - buying some nicer more expensive things elsewhere would be better. If you're looking for things you only want to wear a few times then yeah it's great because you don't end up wasting loads on something you rarely wear, providing there's actually decent things there to buy.

I have been their for tops and jeans and they are quite good with the deals, better then other clothes stores anyway but i would say that they were priced to be around £10 and no more then £20 for one pair of jeans and i forgot how much the tops were but they are cheap.

yeah that's hat i do i buy the brands like superdry jackwills but i get them on sale or outlet normally so you can get quality for low prices. Try mandmdirect.com aswell they have a good outlet for things like that ! Primark is alright but not the quality you want really. very.co.uk also has a god outlet and some good ranges you see fearne and holly advertising it on TV !

i used to work on menswear. So i thought id give you a rough price list.

vests - £2
Plain t-shirts - £2
designed tshirts £3-£5
fashion Shirts £8
formal shirts - £3-£12
Basic jeans £4
Bit better jeans £6-£8
fashion jeans £11-£15
combat pants £6-£10
Jumpers £6-£10
joggers £3
fleeces £4-£8
coats £8-£36

pretty much it. Although i would advise not to buy anything with buttons, they tend to fall off!
