UK stores equilavent to US stores

Hi.  I will be moving to England in a couple months and was hoping there were stores in England similar to a couple of my favs in the states - specifically Target and Old Navy.  Anything like that or is it just different?  Thanks.

We have Gap and Woolworth and Asda.

FYI, Asda is owned by Walmart.

Costco is pretty much identical to the US.

Just with english products. 

i see habitat as a pottery barn (with flare)

Cargo as kinda a crate and barrel, but smaller

We have 'the pier' which is pier one

TK Maxx = TJ Maxx   

Just with english products. 

Hence my pretty identical.

They do have their own brand (Kirkland), which is identical in both places.  I've also bought things like the Henckle knife sets which are available in both as well.

True, but it's a just a British supermarket.  It's not really like Walmart.

I have found it to be a good deal like walmart w/ the clothing, electronics and housewares downstairs. I think the trolley conveyor belt thing is so cool too. That store will def. make me feel like I am more at home once I move

Please take me with you?  DH is an anti-Asda-ite.  [you ever seen the Seinfeld episode where Kramer accuses someone of being an anti-dentite (anti-dentist)]

Thanks so much for the great suggestions!  I'm excited to come over but I have to say I've been having some anxiety dreams the last 2 nights.  This should be quite the adventure!

My local Asda/Walmart doesnt have a downstairs or a trolley conveyor belt!

i love getting clothes from the asda in harlow.  it's big and i can get pants for about £10.  AND try them on (unlike at costco).  That is good shopping for my fat toosh recently.

haha, of course we can go together sometime...I'll just have to get used to driving steve's car or he can take us and let us wander while he gets the shopping done. He has a hard time going as slowly as me sometimes. I love to really look and compare and find new things.

There's always Woolies (Woolworth) and Poundies (£Stretcher) for bits and bobs.  But ASDA, yeah, it's pretty brill and a lifesaver if you live on a tight budget.
