Do you remember the days before supermarkets were invented?
Those were the days when the owner of the business was pleased to see you.
Instead of cold impersonal shelves full of merchandise, the shop owner would often greet you personally and welcome you into his shop.
He would find out exactly what you wanted, and then do his best to supply it.

London shopping is a tiring experience, especially on the season sales. Major designer brands in Oxford Street, High Street Kensington, Harrods, Selfridge’s and even Primark sell things for the most attractive prices. Then the grab-and-buy starts for London bargains.
To avoid queues and faster shoppers try to plan which shops you want to visit and start early. The best time for shopping is weekday mornings when most people are working. Avoid weekends as they will only make you tired. Most of the designer-style shops open around 9:30-10:00 in the morning.

“The customer is always right.”
“The customer is always right.”
“The customer is always right.”
When I first heard those lines, it sounded disturbing to me. At the age of 16, I got my first job experience working behind the cashier’s counter of a famous fast food joint (read: McDonald’s).
I remembered sometimes getting ridiculous requests, customers mentioning the wrong name of the meals when they actually wanted something else. And somehow, somehow… the customer was always right. And somehow, anyhow… it was my fault. It was my fault because I punched in the order that they didn’t want (hey I just take orders), there was salt in the fries and because McDonald’s doesn’t serve the same chicken as KFC’s.
