Bluewater was a nightmare yesterday and it isn't even December.

I dunno I hate Christmas shopping as it is.

edit: ok the above comment was spurned by the fact that I couldn't find anything for myself

I prefer Bluewater personally but both are horrid at Christmas. If you've got to drive then avoid Kingston like the plague. Great for shopping but parking and traffic is a nightmare.

Slightly OT, but funnily enough for all the naysayers I had last year telling me not to go to Oxford St after work, I didn't have to queue once in any shop I went in

Think that many of them stayed home that I could just go and shop as I pleased

Both are good I think, for shopping though Lakeside is better as there is more choice and it isn't as expensive, for a day out Bluewater is better because it has a very good cinema, nice places to eat and has a nice atmosphere, although I go in the week so it is no where near as busy as the weekend

Lakeside always seemed a bit Chavvy to me.

 

[Sirrel Squirrel]

What d'you expect mate, it's in Thurrock, Essex

Yeah but all the ****** come from Kent not Essex!!!

But there you go!!!

Oh come off it lakeside = chav central Last time I was there the mcdonalds on truckworld was full of em!

Both are full of scrotes. I prefer Lakeside as I like the more down to earth stores, as opposed to the designer ones at Bluewater.
I've recently moved from being no more than 10 minutes from either of them, to having Meadowhall as my local shopping Centre.

I'm no shopper, but now I miss them both.

bluewater is a bit more upmarket than lakeside. however lakeside is full of chavvy rat faced people.

bluewater is a worse laid out than lakeside.
lakeside is just a simple straight line where as bluewater is a triangle.

lakeside also has the retail park so a lot of xmas shopping goes down there.

AND as some one said Ikea is there (WOOOOOOOOO!)

what ever you do do not go on a weekend. it will take AGES to find a parking spot, and the centre is COMPLETELY packed with people it will be terrible.

Me and a friend go xmas shopping every year, we tried Bluewater last year and ended up buying naff all!! It was a waste of a day tbh , Lakeside over BW any day.

Cheapness => Lakeside

Quality and pretty much everything else => Bluewater!

I spend pretty much every weekend working at John Lewis Bluewater. Its getting to the time of year where if you're not gonna b out of bed early, dont bother! car parks are packed by 10.30 on a sat morning
