Shopping villages
If you happen to take your shopping seriously, it’s likely you’re familiar with the phrase ‘shopping village’ - where top brands are able to collectively sell surplus stock at up to half the recommended retail price and can cut out much of the cost usually associated with selling their products on the high street. In recent years they have sprung up all over the country and many are also situated next to or near other attractions, such as gardening and wildlife centres, fitness centres and restaurants. But the greatest pull for shoppers is the incredible range of discounts offered, whether you’re shopping for soft furnishings, housewares or ladies' fashions.
