A Shopper’s Guide to Junction 32 Yorkshire Outlet Shopping

15/01/22 ᛫ Add a Comment

This month I hit the winter sales at Junction 32, my favourite West Yorkshire Outlet Shopping centre. I’ve been visiting and working with Junction 32 for 9 months now, so I thought I’d share a little guide about how to get the most out of your visit. From the best places to eat and the best times to visit, here’s my shopper’s guide to Junction 32.

This blog post has been sponsored by Junction 32 Yorkshire Outlet Shopping. All views are my own.



What’s on offer at Junction 32

?

You can expect to find over 70 high street stores and brands at Junction 32, all offering up to 60% off the RRP, all year round. This includes stock from past seasons, bestselling styles and occasional current must-haves. I once picked up a jumper from the Levi’s shop which I saw in Selfridges just a couple of weeks before!

Junction 32 is an open-air shopping centre, but there is still plenty of shelter and canopies if you’re visiting during a rainy day. Some of my favourite brands at Junction 32 include Nike, Next, New Balance, The Body Shop, M&S, Jack Wills, Denby and Adidas (check out the full list here) . With so many stores covering fashion, homeware, interiors and beauty, a visit to Junction 32 is like a one-stop-shop. Another bonus is that it has 1,400 free parking spaces.

A Shopper's Guide to Junction 32

The best times to visit

Through the year there are opportunities to get even more discounts on top of the outlet prices and the discount sales during the Winter and Summer are brilliant. It’s also worth knowing that Junction 32 is open til 8pm on weekdays, meaning after work shopping is most definitely a thing!

On site facilities

As a mum, I love that Junction 32 is family friendly and caters for little ones with a brilliant outdoor play area which is hidden away in the centre of the shops. There are also baby changing facilities and Junction 32 is part of the Breastfeeding Friendly Scheme.

Whenever I visit with my son, we always let him blow off some steam in the play area before squeezing in a few more shops. There are also two award-winning toilet blocks and benches are spread around the centre.

For those with mobility limitations, wheelchairs and scooters can be hired free of charge. For more info and to see the full list of on-site facilities visit the Junction 32 website.

The best places to eat

There are plenty of places to stop and grab a coffee or a light bite to eat at Junction 32 including Starbucks, Greggs and Costa. If you’re looking for more of a substantial meal, hop over the road to Xscape Castleford where you can choose from restaurants such as Pizza Express, TGI Fridays, Ask Italian, Five Guys, Nandos and Heavenly Desserts.

What I bought in January

This month I visited Nike and New Balance to find some discount activewear to motivate me to continue my physio and knee rehab in the gym. A few of the bargain items I picked up included Nike yoga leggings for £23.95 (RRP £47.95) and a Nike workout top for £13.95 (RRP £27.95).

I also found a great pair of workout leggings in New Balance which were reduced to just £19 (RRP £40), as well as a gorgeous pair of pastel-coloured New Balance trainers for £63 (RRP £90).

Finally, I popped in to Next where I found this light forest green coat which would be perfect for transitioning from winter to spring (£50). This is just a little flavour of some of the discounts on offer at Junction 32.

Before Covid, The Travelista was my full time job and sole source of income. Like many others, my business and its earnings took a huge hit during the pandemic. So in August 2020 I started a comms job working 3 days a week for a UK charity.

I continued to work on creating content for The Travelista in my spare time, working weekends, evenings and any moments I wasn’t on Mum duty. I’ve spread myself so thin at times, but in the back of my head I knew The Travelista was a plant I needed to keep watering so that I had the option to hopefully one day return to doing it full time again. Slowly the brand work and travel campaigns began to pick up again until I felt ready to take the leap back into self-employment.

I've officially handed in my notice at my comms job and feel 100% ready to work on The Travelista exclusively again. I also love that I will get to choose my own hours again, spend more time with Theo and restore a little more balance and wellbeing to my life.

I am very proud to be a small business owner and to create content firstly for you, my audience, and secondly for the amazing brands and destinations I work with. 

I have a list of ideas longer than my arm so here’s to bringing some BBE - big business energy - to the second half of 2022. 

Thank you for all following and supporting my account as this next step would not be possible without having you all onboard for the ride. ✨🤍

Ad Newcastle, I love you! 💓 I moved to Newcast Ad Newcastle, I love you! 💓

I moved to Newcastle as a student aged 18, and I loved every second of the three years I called this city home. This weekend I got to return with my best friend Fi, who I met on the first week of moving here. 

13 years later (wow), we have had so much fun retracing our old steps, reminiscing and discovering new areas of the city we once called home. 

After spending 2 days here I can confirm that I have just as many *feels* for this place as I did on that first University open day my Dad took me to aged 17. The friendly people, the compactness of the city, the bars and restaurants, the architecture, the sheer value for money (seriously, where else can you get a glass of Prosecco for £3.95?). Swipe for some highlights which include;

1️⃣A walk along the Quayside 
2️⃣Returning to Francesca’s pizzeria in Jesmond for the ‘half pizza half pasta’ (if you know you know)
3️⃣Special access to climb to the top of Grey’s Monument 
4️⃣Discovering the up-and-coming areas of Ouseburn
5️⃣Brunch at @kilnouseburn, a unique ceramic cafe and studio
6️⃣Buying pick ’n’ mix at @graingermarket like old times
7️⃣Strolling down my old favourite streets such as Side 
8️⃣Margaritas at @wc_newcastle, a bar that was once a public toilets on the Bigg Market 

Stay tuned for my reel and stories for the full recap of what we got up to, and what I’d recommend doing on your own weekend away in Newcastle.
