Here's another tip - take lots of cash with you, don't rely on going to the ATM inside. There are a couple, but I had to queue for 30mins last year, when I walked past a couple hours later the queue was even longer!!
Make sure you have the strawberry icecream, and if you can, smuggle me out some, tis the best & can't be found anywhere else

Originally posted by Pollyana little tip from work - don't go on the Wednesday. Because everyone is off work that day, it will be packed. The weekend is reckoned to be a better deal.
Not sure about people who go to work in our area though ? I must ask my wife
