Weren't Dorothy Perkins in BHS Vicar Lane. Wonder if they have moved out to make way for the food shelves ?

Haven't been in there since the Tesco at Clay Cross was built. Not surprised though as they need to gather in more money. They do their own line of cheaper priced clothes though so not sure how well Perkins clothes will do in there,

Went in BHS a couple of days ago and noticed they are working on a section of the ground floor.
Listening to the radio this morning the boss of BHS said they were going to introduce food sales into the shops.

Theres several outlets going in there not just DP's.
Apparently the place is a bit of a mess at the mo with lots of building works and stuff being moved round.
The place was a bad idea from day 1. it takes a lot of money but not as much as they hoped. i think they expected to run us out of town.

You wouldn't expect them to reduce the number of their lines giving excess floor space and leave it empty, would you? To be honest, it makes no difference to us, we've only been in there once in the last two years to look for something a friend in France wanted. 95% of our own shopping these days is from Aldi or Lidl (did I see that Aldi sales are up 31%?) Tesco and the other 'dinosaur' supermarkets have had their day with their silly club points, vouchers, BOGOFs and fuel offers.

It seems to be a growing trend now to rent floor space, even my hairdresser does it in her small shop.
As for the Dinosaur supermarkets having had their day - you may well be right there Dave.

What goes around comes around as they say.
