Brucie's Qype profile
The Range - Ipswich

Well i think the reviews for this place already speak volumes you can some it up in 1 word WOW. it is packed full of all the craft items you can imagine & has an equaly large Home Improvement section covering a wide range of products & some that you wont even find elsewere it also has an upstairs where the have a great range of fabrics as well as a furniture section.. due to the lenth of time you will spend inside the store they have even added the benifits of a snack bar & toilets so this place realy does have it all HOWEVER i must point out that whilst this place does have plenty of parking available at this time of year i would add approx 1 - 2 hours on your trip if you are visiting at the weekend because this place is very busy & the road in to & out of the retail park is not the best set up, we visited the range on the 16-11-08 & the que of traffic was so bad that my wife got out the car & spent 1 hour in the range shopping quite blissfully whilst i on the other hand waited in the que of traffic to get out (mostly because i was to scared to park in case no let me out after) there was plently of empty spaces to park in but i opted to stay in the que to leave & this paid off in the sence that by the time my better half was finished grabing loads of great craft items i had only manged to move about 50ft or 15 mtrs (for those of you not good with measurements approx 5 car lenghts) in total it took me 1 hour & 48 mins from the moment i joined the que to get in until the moment i managed to get right round & past the traffic lights that actualy cause this problem so to sum it all up for all you bargain hunters the range receives full marks from us, The car park could be better maybe the exit could do with a review 3 lanes to 1 just dont work & finaly the main entrance/exit in to the estate realy lets this place down so avoid it on the weekends over the christmas season & try to make time to visit it during the week but if you must go at the weekend either get there early or allow plenty of time to sit it out Good Luck & happy Qyping

Well i think the reviews for this place already speak volumes you can some it up in 2 words WOMAN HEAVEN. it is packed full of shoes split up in sizes for ease of browsing It has wide asles so pushing a buggy round is no problem but remember they will need a bite to eat or they will some become bored with the lenth of time you need for browsing!! HOWEVER i must point out that whilst this place does have plenty of parking available at this time of year i would add approx 1 - 2 hours on your trip if you are visiting at the weekend because this place is very busy & the road in to & out of the retail park is not the best set up, we visited the range wich is next door to Brantano on the 16-11-08 & the que of traffic was so bad that my wife got out the car & spent 1 hour in the range shopping quite blissfully whilst i on the other hand waited in the que of traffic to get out (mostly because i was to scared to park in case no let me out after) there was plently of empty spaces to park in but i opted to stay in the que to leave & this paid off in the sence that by the time my better half was finished grabing loads of great craft items i had only manged to move about 50ft or 15 mtrs (for those of you not good with measurements approx 5 car lenghts) in total it took me 1 hour & 48 mins from the moment i joined the que to get in until the moment i managed to get right round & past the traffic lights that actualy cause this problem so to sum it all up for all you bargain hunters Brantanos has a fantastic range of footware at some incredible prices & receives full marks from us, The car park could be better maybe the exit could do with a review 3 lanes to 1 just dont work & fianly the main entrance/exit in to the estate realy lets this place down so avoid it on the weekends over the christmas season & try to make time to visit it during the week but if you must go at the weekend either get there early or allow plenty of time to sit it out Good Luck & happy Qyping

Good luck all & to those who will be attending remember to tell the owner (Amanda Smith) that Bruce sent you & after you can pop in to Makeup Wizard & then review our cheap prices & great service!!!
The Feathers - Felixstowe

The feathers in felixstowe has seen it’s fair share of trouble over the years however since it was taken over by new owners Neil & Jayne Wadsley they have created a new FAMILY FRIENDLY VENUE where you can enjoy lunch or dinner from a menu that includes some great modern british food.. The meat comes from a local butcher, Veg from a local supplier & wines from a small spanish wine co-operative they also serve cask ales & regular guest beers, The old kitchens were stripped out & refurbished & even the garden has under gone a huge face lift & they have even added some things for the kids to enjoy!! The service is both polite & promt with a choice of eating in the restaurant or a little less formal in the lounge bar infact this is so far to date the only pub i know that offers a take-away service to include both wine & food, The feathers great new look has loads of free parking so why not treat yourself & check them out im sure you won’t be dissapointed!!
Makeup Wizard - Felixstowe

Makeup Wizard is a husbond & wife outfit where customer service is second to none!! we specailise in clearance pallets & then offer these items at very reduced rates example Collection 2000 Colour Match Liquid Foundation in most shops will be £3.99 - £4.49 from us only £1.99 (& even cheaper when shop offers are on!!!) that's less than half price.. with these savings we hope to bring down the lifetime expence from approximatly £180,000 in a lifetime to a much more reasonable £90,000 & with the housing market what it is today that's a posible deposit on a 3 - 4 bedroom house depending on the area (if you found a place near our shop you could almost buy 1 outright!!!)
And finaly for those of you who do not live in or around suffolk we do post out items & we do not overinflate the cost of Postage & packing how many other shops do you know that do that??
Superdrug Stores - Newbury

Just for anyone who does not yet know but Boots & Superdrugs are part & parcel when one bought out the other the names where left different as some people don’t like Boots & others don’t like Superdrugs by keeping them apart they have kept some customers that they would have lost had they merged more clearly, i think that makes sence but if anyone does not understand what i was rambling on about simply either add me or ask me & i will do my best to help Kind Regards Bruce
Brucie you will be surprised infact i only found out when i was talking to our Collection 2000 rep who offered us a clearance pallet of items that was being returned by boots & superdrugs as the smaller stores will be discontinuing them & the larger stores will be taking on a new product called MEMEME this is collection 2000’s higher end cosmetics & will cost a lot more then the normal items unless you shop around scary realy how much i actualy know about makeup lol
