Primark - Used to be good, but the clothes are so ugly and tacky now. The queues are also a nightmare.
Topshop - Way overpriced! The staff tend to be snooty and have bad customer service skills.
TK Maxx - There's never any decent clothes. Ornaments are broken or damaged. Beauty products are dirty (packaging) or somebody has already opened them. It might just be the one in my area though.
Matalan - Mosty because I was once served by a girl in there who had the worst customer service skills ever. Talking loudly to her colleague about her personal life whilst serving me and other customers. Never once looked me in the eye or spoke to me.
Lush - The staff follow you around and it's a bit annoying.
All Saints - Extremely over priced! £75 for a grey T shirt with a (intentional) hole in it.
Sblended Milkshakes - Always has annoying hipster teenagers hanging around in there.
Stores you hate/dislike
Re: Stores you hate/dislike
I absolutely detest Forever 21. I don't think I've ever seen a cheaper, tackier, gaudier store.
I feel truly embarrassed for people who are over 16 years old and shop there.

Re: Stores you hate/dislike
Rue21 has the ugliest everything.
MAC and Sephora. If you don't look rich or older than 20, don't expect to even get a smile.
Lane Byrant. Everything is hideous and crazy expensive.
Nordstrom Rack. I never find anything worth the price in this store.

Re: Stores you hate/dislike
I hate shopping at and anything made by Primark, its all shit quality (probably made by child labour) and its way too messy to find anything. Higher end makeup brands are also a pain, namely Mac and Chanel. I always feel like they're giving me dirty looks since I'll probably be wearing jeans and a jumper or something so presume I won't buy anything... I wouldn't be asking you to colour match me if I wasn't interested in buying it.

Re: Stores you hate/dislike
American Apparel is after pissing me off. I avoid their store in my city because to be frank, I can't deal with their rude and snotty staff. And also, I should know better, the stuff is ridiculously overpriced BUT I've been lusting after a romper they sell for ages. And when I saw that this week, everything online was 25% off.. I couldn't resist. So order placed.. forked out €40ish and thought everything would be fine. Then I check my email invoice only to see that they gave me a 'backlog order', saying that my product is out of stock so they will get it to me in around 2 to 3 weeks. What the actual fuck. ARE YOU SRS. IF YOU KNEW IT WAS OUT OF STOCK, WHY IS IT LIVE ON YOUR WEBSITE. I'm not able for this nonsense. Their clothes cost enough money, you'd think they could afford a decent warehouse/website stock system.
While I'm here ranting:
- Topshop: WHO sets the prices for these fools? I do buy something every now and then again from them.. I love their petite section but sometimes the pricing gets too much.
- H&M: The quality of the clothes is actually shocking, I bought a pair of jeggings from them that are ripping after a few wears and faded in the wash.
I dislike cosmetic shopping in general. The people working at cosmetic stands tend to have a ridiculous superiority complex, who are they fooling like.. most of them are failed/wannabe models who work on commission/shitty wage for a cosmetic company. Good luck with that.

Re: Stores you hate/dislike
I hate BTs, Mac, Urban Decay, any makeup store. I try to get in, buy my shit and leave asap. Everyone in there is 50 shades of brown with nike ticks for eyebrows and the gaudiest "I'M SO TALENTED LOOK AT MY EDGY BOLD MAKEUP!!!" faces, and will still try to advise you like they are the masters of makeup just because they work there on min wage.

Re: Stores you hate/dislike
I live in Canada it it really bothers me how some things at Top Shop are in pounds, not Canadian dollars. I saw some really cute pyjamas for £22, but there wasn't a price in dollars. It's so weird! Plus, £22 is just over $44, which is WAY too much for pyjamas, not matter how cute they are.

Re: Stores you hate/dislike
MAC... Everything is always sold out. Don't they know about supply and demand? My mum wanted a basic eyeshadow brush and had to wait weeks for it to get back in store, and there's always sold out stickers on their testers (if they even have any) if it's not basic product. Also, the employees are always busy doing people's makeup or those makeup charts (the faces) that you have to wait in line for too long. If you're only 1 or two people at work don't do somebody maekup when there's 5 people wanting to buy products...
LUSH. The smell is so overwhelming (one store I went to even had the door and window open in -10 and snow) and the employees are so pushy for oyu to try things out. I was once almost forced to try out a hand soap.

Re: Stores you hate/dislike
Sephora: I like their products, don't get me wrong, but the store at my mall is so insane I can hardly shop and the workers don't even help you. I remember asking this lady if she had a certain lipstick in stock and she said "Let me go check and see" and I never saw her again. Normally they all just stand around and don't even ask you if you need help or whatever lol
Lush: I just hate my local store, not all the stores in general! The manager at my store lied to me about a job and told me I could come in for an interview on a certain date but failed to give me a time. So when I called the store and asked what time I should be there, she basically laughed and told me that no such email had been sent and that I was never invited. Fuck you then.
MAC: I've been getting a lot better service at Mac recently, I almost always get greeted pleasantly and always get asked if I need help and the workers seem nice when they help me--which is new for me. But I agree with the poster above that said that everything is always sold out.

Re: Stores you hate/dislike
Primark: although I do buy a lot there I would avoid buying leggings (very thin and rip fast!) and jeans (literally ripped in a week!)..also a lot of the clothes are thin. Apart from that everything's fine, occasionally the quality will be quite good.
TX Maxx: I can't really seem to find anything amazing there,my sister accidentally bought a pair of €10 socks(???) literally for a pair of 7 ankle socks with pastel colours...wtf? Hopefully next time I'll find something good.

I went to Lush the other day and the same employee asked if I needed help twice and when I finally needed help she ignored me.RebeccaDoppelmeyer wrote:

I hate makeup stores, the people who work there never give you what you’re looking for and they are constantly trying to sell you stuff that you don’t want.

Doll's Kill: - Racist, The clothes are cute but NOT at the cost of, Racism, Sexism, ETC, The owner is a sick person posting and thanking the police when black lives matter was going on and the dead girl's CAN'T say no disgusting vile shirt's
HOT TOPIC: - They are racist I tried to get a job their but they DIDN'T hire me despite the fact I put a reference and they said they really needed help / employees desperately, Thewoman manager at the time STOLE stuff from the previous HOT TOPIC she worked from but she get's hired and I DON'T get hired for no reason I've NEVER once seen a black person work at that store, and all their clothes are cheap tacky and within 3 month's already had HOLE'S in the T-Shirt's
AppleBee's: - Had one of the WORST racist experience's here... They allowed me to order a alcoholic drink they knew I was 21 then the bar manager the next day came and took my drink claiming I was underaged with NO proof whatsoever she was stalking me from the bar area, So a 21 year old CAN'T have a drink but the cousmer's at the bar can give people cancer with their smoking cigarettes near children's face's and blowing it near them? , That's why I NEVER go out to eat anymore because after all this, They really expected me to tip a lot after this racist experience, it's NOT my respociblity to tip a large amount while their NOT paying their employees a living wage
FashionNova: - I LOVE THIS STORE, But the tacky looking clothes and designs are hurting my eyes
Arby's: - I ALWAYS get food poisoning every time I would eat there
Walmart: - They keep claiming shoplifter's are stealing so much they had to turn their store into some type of prsion, But wage theft is the biggest theft, I went their recentlly and their are gates eevrywhere that prevent people from leaving, I DON'T feel safe there or at tHE SELF-CHECKOUT counter's because they accuse people of shoplifing and get a lawfirm to blackmail the victims saying pay $200 with NO PROOF and a woman won a million dollar lawsuit from it
