Marcia May Shoes Mill Street Oakham Rutland Great Customer Service Cheaper than John Lewis

Marcia May Shoes Mill Street Oakham Rutland Great Customer Service Cheaper than John Lewis





















Yesterday a lady told me she drove to John Lewis Peterborough with two boys to purchase shoes
for the new term.

Unfortunately she returned with no shoes after finding the service at the department store
was not up to the normal John Lewis standard. A disinterested partner / sales assistant.

When the lady returned to Oakham she was walking along Mill Street and found a small
shoe shop that sells Start Rite Clarks shoes.

There is a notice in the window suggesting appointments for back to school fittings. But
on this day no appointment was needed.

The assistant was very attentive and shiny shoes were purchased at a lower price than
John Lewis and the boys each received a free gift.


I often suggest to people that they should shop around little shops can sometimes be cheaper
and often give great customer service.
