It's true that everyone loves a bargain, and especially in this economic climate people can't afford to be too picky but, really, is Primark all that good?
In past years Primark has hit the news for various wrong doings. Such as, the exploitation of its workers and trying to "Sex" up kids by offering padded bras and bikinis to 9 year olds. I took a little trip down there today in a hope to find myself a bargain (I am of course a student) and there were some items of clothing that I just couldn't believe they were selling!
Just take a look at these One Direction pants, being sold to young kids. I myself, find it a bit disturbing and wonder, what would be next? They also have JLS ones! Of course they resemble the image of the boy band well, having quite a light hearted feel to them, but I just ask myself WHY?
Another thing I stumbled across when I was in Primark was this male t-shirt, drawing its attention to the Royal Wedding. I found this to be a bit unbelievable really. As a country, are we not supposed to be supporting the Wedding, not making a joke out of it? Of course, many people have their own views about the Royal Wedding, but really should a high street retailer be sending out this message about our country's future history? I think not.
