Mr F and I are off to Bicester shopping village soon for our first visit. Does anyone have any advice for me?

I think its one of the better shopping villages. Far superior to Braintree.

Lots of bargains in shops like Fat Face, Monsoon, Clarks, Links of London, Hobbs, Radley etc. I'm sure the other shops have bargains (Versace, etc), but a suit down from £900 to £600 isn't a bargain to me!!

Parking is a nightmare - get there as soon as it opens (10am I think). Have fun.

Hi Foxie

Went there a month ago on way home from somewhere - took us almost an hour to park!!! Some good shops some over the top! White Company, Hobbs, are good. Yes, better than the one near me in Essex not as big as I thought it was going to be. (I bought something in Hobbs which was on their sale page on website at the same price). Some of the shops - Jigsaw was like a jumble sale - be prepared to search through the rails. Nice shop (cannot remember the name that only sold ladies white shirts - very nice). Enjoy.

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for your advice, we have to go via somewhere else, so will make sure we have drinks and the Saturday papers to while away the waiting in the queue.

Carsma - I'm taking both Mr F and all his credit cards!

I'll post about it tomorrow.

Haven't been for many years. Start at one end and enjoy. I used to find mostly tiny sizes which is very frustrating. But good fun all the same

Enjoy your day. Try Carluccio's for lunch. Jagaer has some good bargains as does MaxMara. Have a look in Jimmy Choo. You will either buys loads or nothing, be prepared to search. Enjoy. Mazl
