SHOPPING: East Midlands Designer Outlet

 

The last day of our week off, and despite feeling tired and achy from our day in London, nevertheless we decided to make the effort to do something rather than just sitting around being tired. So we scooted back up the M1 to the 'East Midlands Designer Outlet' where I hoped to find a) some replacements for my worn out black Skechers trainers, and b) some Lindt Nuxors (since the supermarkets only sell them at Christmas). 


Pleasingly I managed to secure both these items, and while the Nuxors were disgustingly overpriced at £8 for a tiny box, I did get my trainers for about £20 less then expected - so all in all it was a good day!

In addition I got a new dark blue shirt from M&S, though I wasn't 100% sold on the squares... but at least it didn't have white buttons like the last one and it fits me now so it was a slam dunk at £24. 


I also found a (long overdue) replacement for my very thin raincoat at Mountain Warehouse, which I never really went in before because I'm sure last time I went in there (admittedly many years ago) they didn't seem to have anything for less than £400. 

Rose got the usual nail files, books, a top from Crew Clothing and two nice thick hoodies from SuperDry, which she was appalled by the price of (even though they were discounted).
