Card Factory

Card Factory hands down beats all the big card shops such as Clintons. We have two here in Leicester, the one I’m reviewing is located right in the heart of town alongside big name shops like Boots, WHSmiths and Marks & Spencers. Inside the shop doesn’t really look like it’s anything special but it’s the prices here that are the main attraction. The store only has two aisles but they are extremely crowded especially at Christmas tiem and it seems not a lot of thought was given to the layout when the shop was built.
The till is located right in the heart of everything which makes it very difficult to reach the cashier and you find yourself having to push through a load of people to make it. However all that aside the staff are always friendly and helpful and ready to greet you wit ha smile and you can buy cards for any occasion for extremely low prices. The cards are really nice as well and there’s a huge selection from the smallest at say 39p to those massive ones which still only come to about 2.00 a pop. You can also purchase wrapping paper and small gifts so overall despite the initial negativity, Card Factory is definately the best place to go for all your celebration needs.
