Advantages: Usually situated in retail park. Large store.

Disadvantages: None

I wouldn't call myself a clothes shopping type of guy. Don't get me wrong, I like to dress smart but I'm not really into all kinds of designer label gear. I also don't do much window shopping. I usually only go when I am looking for something specific.

This is where Matalan comes into its own. I have two near to me. Both in retail parks. Not only do they do both men and womens clothes but they also sell household goods. The Matalan which I usually shop at is in Wavertree, Liverpool. It is quite a modern building and very large. If my memory is right I think it opened about 5 years ago.

My last visit was about 2 weeks ago. It was during the cold snap. To be honest inside wasn't much warmer. Usually when you go shopping you expect it to be warm and enticing. Sadly on this occasion it was far from it. Both myself, wife and kids were all freezing.

The prices are always extremely reasonable. We seldom leave the store without spending a fair few pounds. The last time we went was no different either.

There is ample parking immediately at the store and plenty of checkouts.

Last time we went we noticed that they had opened a part section. This had everything from cards, balloons, tablecloths, cups etc. It is certainly something we'd bear in mind if we were looking for any party items.

Summary: Good choice of clothes and household goods!
