We hate the recession - Primark don't.

I like buying good-quality clothes from the likes of Debenhams and TopShop - but now, in a recession, we have to be a bit more prudent with our spending. However, I still need new clothes from time to time either because they get worn out, trends change or I grow! But when I go to the high street, instead of popping into the high-end, expensive shops, I choose Primark. Cheap and value for money. My situation is not unique. This recession has not just decreased spending, but changed where we spend money. People are opting for cheaper substitutes - sacrificing a bit of quality to save money.

Thus, it is no surprise that Primark's sales have gone up. In the last year, sales have gone up by 7%. The recession has been a headache for most of us, but it is a blessing for Primark
