Lifestyle Express

A bog-​standard newsagent, but after my stomach churning experience at RS McColl’s across the road, it felt like an oasis in the desert.
They stocked Star Bars, and it felt like they had air conditioning, or at the very least the fridges were keeping the rest of the store temperate.
Perfect.

Lifestyle Express is little shop near my house. They are basically just your standard wee newsagent, although, given its Broughton St location, it has mags like Diva as well as Heat and Closer. The staff can be a bit hit or miss, sometimes your bits and pieces are rung through the till whilst the guy behind the counter chats on his mobile phone. I thought it was worth reviewing because, whilst it doesn’t have the exciting kind of stock that the London Street Grocery’s got, it sells booze and it’s got a free cash machine. Hurrah!
