Now here's the shop I'm talking about. TIGER.
Tiger - a Danish store that sells allsorts |
Whoops - a fuzzy picture of one of the entrances at the shopping centre |
It's like a gift / department store all in one! They sell spices, kitchenware, office stationary, home appliances and loads of other stuff that you wouldn't even think would fit in the store! It's like a European version of the Japanese store MUJI! But very colourful and they do a lot of bargains like 3 for £1 with candlesticks ^_^ ! All prices are very reasonable and it's like a local homeware store.
TIGER is actually from Denmark. Wow, I have never seen a Danish company become popular in the UK before... I think the Swedish got there first with IKEA and H&M. I think we'll have to wait and see if this store will survive the UK market - I'm sure it will. It seems like a great place for Christmas shopping ^.^ !
Here's what Miss Pinky bought for her flat... (Sorry, it's all pink stuff ¬_¬" - It's not my favourite colour... And now you know the reason why I call her Miss Pinky!).
Pink ice cube tray for £1!!! - I think they are selling this for £2 in Matalan!! |
Thin pink candlesticks |
Fat pink candles |
So what do I really think - It's a really lovely cutesy store - I would go back again to do some Christmas shopping (and possibly do some stationary shopping!!!) :D
