'The best thing I've heard all day' Primark fans reacts as retailer announces online shopping plans

Primark is loved for offering clothing, shoes and more at low prices however some shoppers are put off visiting its stores due to how busy they can get.

So, it's not surprising to see how excited fans are at the prospect of finally being able to order Primark pieces from the comfort of your own home.

It has been confirmed the retailer plans to trial online shopping where its customers will have the option to browse its products on its website and order them through a click and collect service to its stores.

"With the retailer already one of the clear market leaders, an online business would give it every chance of overtaking M&S and Next."

And, @_katiemaciverr said: "Am so sure a just seen a tweet saying primark has online shopping. Today's a good bloody day."

It's not clear when the service will be rolled out to stores with it believe to be still a year away from being trialled, but we are still pretty excited.
