BHS

I was looking for glass globes for the hall way and knew that these guys sold them on the cheap.
It’s not often that l ever pop into BHS as l feel it’s such an out dated store, in the end l bought two glass coloured globes, on taking them home l noticed that there where marks on them, so clever as l was decided to give them a wash.
Within minutes of contact with warm soapy water a plastic coating came of the glass and the other one broke.
The box did not state that the glass globes where plastic coated, l was definitely robbed by these guys.

Well I’m not a massive fan of this and only go in for Christmas bargains but yet was a suprised yes.
I popped in and seen a Christmas light up sign of 2 varieties was £20 each (originally) so I got two of each and they was going to charge me £19 (for four) when it was £14.40 (for four) and they eventually agreed. They put all in one bag and when I left it broke. So when I got home one was pre used and other was faulty.
I took them back and after letting me explain the till staff sent me upstairs to customer service. Telling her they was broke got no reaction, I explained there was two batteries in it but that was from other customer. She said where are the batteries, I said I binned them as you didn’t sell them with product.
So Upon testing one the replacements was faulty again and I thought she offer to go and get it, I was sent I’m like lazy. So I brought final two and only one of them worked and she was still expressionless. Bhs is overpriced, selling rubbish, staff have attitude and where did the suitcase ever cost £140 they claim

Whilst in St Enoch’s we passed by BHs and noticed that they had their XMAS displays full of brand favourites such as Coke, Heinz, Swizzles, Bailies, and much more.
We love looking at the interesting little XMAS gift ideas and wondering if they could be suitable for friends and family.
In this visit we actually decided to buy something, unfortunately finding a till was harder than finding Wally (or Wally), Spotting the old upturned Dalek security cameras (I thought shops stopped using those back in the late 80’s) was easier and I started wondering if people accidentally shoplifted the goods after getting disorientated trying to find the till and actually pay for the goods.
Eventually we found the bank of four tills, tucked up one of the back walls, and then had to guess which side of the barrier we were supposed to wait at to be served. Luckily there was an empty till and we were ushered to pay for our goods before we made a swift exit, seconds before hearing another customer being told she was waiting at the wrong side of the barrier (where we had just been standing a few minutes earlier).
BHs feels like it’s stuck in a rut, it needs an update and if it wasn’t for the weird XMAS brand name gift sets each year, I don’t think we would ever go in.

After years and years of being dragged through here with my mum it’s given me a love hate relationship with the place.
Overall, the shop feels quite soulless and the dim store lighting isn’t very inviting. It’s usually full of ladies trying to find a bargain and I’m sure that more often than not they probably do. They have a huge range of home wares, including bedding, lighting, bathroom goods, curtains, pictures, ornaments and they also have an extensive of clothing for ladies, men and also children.
Bhs is aimed mainly at middle aged women and above and it has been around for years and that’s got to say something in itself. The items here aren’t exactly mind blowing but they’re affordable and you will always get a friendly helping hand from one of the staff here.

This is a fair sized shop split on different levels. They stock clothes for children and women, however the clothes are for the older woman. They also stock some wedding dresses and shoes etc. Upstairs they have some clothes for men along with underware and house products. the café located on the first floor is really reasonable and a nice place to sit on a coffee break during a busy shopping day.
