Helpfulness
There is summer sale in the shops in Loughborough. However, not that great. I prefer to go to London for the sale - more choices and cheaper. For example, there's a Clark in Loughborough, it is more expensive and less selections than in London. Another example, when I see stuffs in Bodyshop going for £1 in London, there's either no sale or cost more than in London.

I enjoy shopping in the nearby city of Nottingham as compared to Loughbrough.
Perhaps Loughborough has good selections of the big supermarkets. Tesco, opened 24 hrs, is just outside the town center. Safeway in the Gorse Covent area. Sainsbury, a big and modern looking one, is in the town center, very near the market and the main students area. Boots, Somerfield, Iceland, Wilkinson. Littlewoods, Next are in the town center. There are many more other shops in Loughborough, check it out yourself!
The biggest shopping center in Loughborough is Carillon Court (not very big though), but there's a construction of a new shopping center going on near the town center.
What to buy: The picture shows the market on a Satuday morning. This was taken on a very bright and cool, sunny day. On days such as this, the market will be very busy and crowded.

The market in Loughborough is on every Thursday and Saturday from about 8am till 4pm. It is cheap to buy vegetables from the market, but the supermarts have better quality control.
There are several chain superstores or supermarts like NTUC in Loughborough, namely, Tesco, Sainsbury, Somerfield, Iceland and Farmfood for food. For toiletries, there's Bodyshop, Boots and Superdrugs. For others, there's Wilkinson and Woolsworth. These shops are in the town center, except Tesco which is out of town. The only 24 hours store is Tesco.
