Advantages: good variety and good quality items

Disadvantages: expensive

I'm writing about the Boots in Birmingham town centre.

This boots store is really big,especially in comparison to the other local boots store in Great Bridge! They sell allsorts from disposable cameras to perfume, food and drink, baby clothing and toys, cosmetic, medicine and more. It has a photo printing area which is convenient to get your pics done when shopping.

They have a large area along the wall of perfume, both mens and womens fragrances. The perfumes are reasonably priced and modern so if you're looking for a perfume, it's pretty certain that Boots will have it. The perfume area has it's own counters so you can make a quick purchase without queuing behind others doing general shopping.

There is a couple of fridges with drinks and sandwiches in often with meal deals like 'buy a sandwhich, drink and crisps for £2.20. which is very convenient if you're on your lunch break from work.

They have a large selection of make-up in different brands including Maybeline, Rimmel and Max factor. The make-up is reasonable priced but I have found that it is more expensive than ASDA and superdrug.

I got an advantage card about 2 years ago now and was saving points all last year without spending them and I managed to save £20.00 on my card that I used to buy christmas gifts with. With the Boots advantage card, you earn 4 points (4p equivalent) for each pound you spend here (more on certain items and can get offers from the machine like double points on certain products.) The advantage card is a brilliant idea because it encourages me to shop there more than I would without it. So it gets more custom for them and I get a bit of my money back, everyone wins.

Overall, Boots is a well - organised and clean and tidy store that has a great variety of products in every category although items can be more expensive than in other stores, you do get good quality items and you get rewarded for shopping there with points so it's worth while! I'd only advise shopping there if you have an advantage card though, which is free to get, so you get some of your money back.

Summary: a good store to buy perfume, cosmetics and more.
