My father was staff manager of Selfridge's before WW2 under Gordon Selfridge, my cousin Walter was a doorman, and both my sister and I worked there as sales assistants. Both on the ground floor: she in cosmetics, while I sold gloves and hats. Meanwhile, mum was a senior sales assistant at Harrod's! A real department-store family. 😀
The history of Selfridges - incredible. They were first in many things, including selling make up, and having items on display for customers to actually touch! Loved the tv series.The store owes your family a lot, for your hard work through the generations.
My mum used to work in Selfridges in the 1960s. Every time we visits she likes to point out all the changes to the store and how it all looked in the 60s! 😆
Love my Friday mooch with Hannah, hyping me up to go shopping on the weekend, then remembering I don’t want to be an anchovy packed into a shopping hall with all the other shoppers. Hannah out here doing the hard work for us, thank you got your service 😂❤
I got recommended your channel a few weeks ago, and been addicted to binge watching them to relax and unwind. It's rare to find a likeable youtuber 😂 you're a joy to watch. Thank you for producing entertaining content. You deserve 1 million subs! ❤
Can’t believe you’ve been doing this for about 5 years Hannah. You only popped up on my suggestions a couple of weeks ago and I’m slowly working my way through your ‘back catalogue’. You seem the pleasant sort, not pretentious and all round good egg. Keep up the good work, interesting stuff. I lived in London in the late eighties working in casinos and had a great time, it’s good to see some of the places I remember.😊
"Any surplus food from the Foodhall will be distributed to three charities: City Harvest, a charity that donates leftover food from the industry to those in need; Shoreditch-based charity The Little Things, who create food packages for vulnerable households; and HEROES, a new charity supporting the welfare and wellbeing of NHS staff."
@hannah tip for detoxing. Get yourself chard, or chicory, dandelion, or rocket. Wash, bring to the boil. When cooled down drink a small glass of liquid. Store in fridge for 3 days. As for the greens, a little bit of olive oil, salt to taste and lemon. Healthy detoxing meal. A recipe from ancient greek times. Do this every week. Cheers kiddo!!!!
Hi Hannah, am so glad this video confirmed that I didn't "miss" anything when I was in London last month (mid-Sept), and didn't make a special trip to Selfridges. I agree with your thoughts at the end: Harrods food halls are far superior -- I couldn't stop taking pictures of things as I walked through, plunking myself down at their coffee bar for a cappuccino when I needed a break. The BEST part, tho', was later in the day, finding Harrods Champagne Bar where I grabbed a seat and had a glass of 2016 Moet and Chandon (= "lunch"!). Perfect ending to a day's worth of shopping. Can't wait to see your upcoming holiday videos -- they're always great fun. Cheers!
Hello from Canada! Your videos are just lovely to watch and it is great to see the changes over the decades. Thanks for taking us along back to the homeland, shopping in London!
I got to visit London 5 years ago and only had time for Selfridge or Harrods and I picked Selfridges. I loved it sooooo much! Those little fruits that look like yellow tomatoes are persimmons, yum!
Good to go round Selfridges today. They have been in business in Oxford Street for nearly 170 years. I used to shop there in the 1950’s. Not the cheapest, but always realistic prices. Like your new coat Hannah.
Manchester Tart. When I was school it was a pastry case with a layer of jam, then filled with a set custard finished with hundreds and thousands. Delicious. But I was in receipt of free school meals, so all food was delicious.
I agree with The Queen of UA-cam, Harrods is #1 ❤ but I really enjoyed the vlog 🎉 as always ‼️ Thanks for making Fridays special 🎉 Hope the world is turning just right for you‼️ Have a wonderful weekend 🎉
Wow Onion Baji scotch egg what a fabulous idea. I don’t blame you for buying lots of stuff sometimes it’s about what you want and not what you need. Thanks so much 💜🐻
Hey Hannah, your vlogs are absolutely the best I love to watch them the way you present them is the best , very British and I love it, you make me laugh it's a little pretentious a little bit snobbish and it's ok I personally love it....I'm watching from the USA you're the best, please don't stop. Thank you so much for sharing.
Biltong and Droëwors are the most delicious savoury treats in South-Africa. We enjoy it anywhere everywhere and is ESPECIALLY served when our World Cup champions, THE SPRINGBOKS, are playing. It is a tradition that started 200years ago when people did not have a freezer to keep their meat in. So they used spices and dried the meat in the open air.
And it was South African Maritime Salvage Master, Capt. Nick Sloane who headed operations to raise the Costa Concordia and remove the giant behemoth from polluting the environment! He's a world champion, too! Give this man a lifetime supply of these savory treats!💜🛳💜
Hannah, I enjoy your videos. I’m experiencing the stores, shops and parks through you. I’m in the USA and at my age I don’t travel. I see Britain through your eyes and Neal Sean. Thank you for carrying us along through your adventures.
Cheers Hannah, this is Sean in Atlanta! I will probably bring the world down on my head, but that food area is filthy and Harrods looks so much better! I agree with you in that the glass looks disgusting and with the prices they are charging, you should be able to eat off it! And the thought of that almost makes me want to hurl! OK, I don’t know how to spell the word “jush” but it’s hilarious to me! People would pay £6000 for fish eggs? A fool and his money… I’m looking at the Scotch eggs and, I’m sorry, but that place looks just this side of nasty! When it comes to displaying food, I think you could be more comfortable buying it if it looked like the area was clean… I have never been to Selfridge’s so take my comments with a grain of salt. But I have been to Harrod’s several times and I much prefer their foodcourt, or food hall, or whatever you call it, much better! We have had canned booze here in the States for quite a while! The prepared foods look interesting but the black areas that they rest on and the nasty fingerprinted glass is very unappealing to me! And this coming from a guy who doesn’t cook! I know I tell you quite often, but your incidental music and your Hannah words absolutely make me howl with laughter! You are the bees knees and that is for sure and for certain! Thank you, Hannah, for taking me on a tour of Selfridge’s. I am thinking the next time I come to London, I will revisit Harrods and visit Liberty, which I have not seen yet. I think I will pass Selfridges by… Sean P.S. May I say that you look absolutely smashing, as usual? You do!
If one goes first thing in the morning as with Harrods that is the best show of the day! Used to work at Selfridges and Harrods,born and lived up in Baker Street.🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hannah I can’t believe you’ve never heard of Manchester tart! It’s so delicious. Sadly it’s not eaten here in Manchester as much anymore. It was always on the school menu when I was at school. Loved the video btw.
Pamela, I lived and worked in Manchester for a while,, and I never saw that, ,,, but I observed Manchester tarts on Moss side!, I love to find local unique to area foods, I clearly missed the boat.
Just had mega flash back to my first and only try of truffles and it was not pleasant at all. Ended up with food poisoning (it was a risotto). So no truffle for me been turned off for life!!!. Definitely love a cured meat. Favourite is prossuito and pancetta. Love wrapping it around beans and asparagus. Definitely agree that Harrods seems to be the best one to go to. They say you shop with your eyes and nothing in Selfridges really jumped out at all. We went down to the Gold Coast for our anniversary this week and found that the staff in David Jones (our Harrods) were really rude and stuck up. But in Myer (our Selfridges) the staff were amazing. Love the look of all the hot chocolate and definitely at tea bag girl also. Remember my grandmother was a tea leaf drinker always remember having bits stuck in my mouth. Sent you a small gift on me. Have a fantastic weekend and week. Catch you next Saturday morning ❤❤❤❤
I love Selfridges as a store, but the food hall isn’t a patch on Harrods, sorry. In terms of sheer spectacle Harrods wins hands down. Great vlog as always 😊
I love going shopping with you Hannah. My dream was always to go to England and see where my grandparents came from, but I'm too old to make the trip now and that's why enjoy your vlogs as you roam around showing us foods and gorgeous buildings.
I do love a mooch through a posh food hall. The cakes at the start - amazing. And the gorgeous tins. So much fab food way out of my budget but fun to see.
I found your account yesterday and have been binge-watching your videos since then. Can't wait to see more of your videos. Thanks for the lovely content. 🤗
Hannah, I love your videos and look forward to each of your new adventures around London. You visit lovely places and do the things I would do if I could. Please continue as you have and count on me to accompany you in spirit!
I personally loved Fortnums and Masons - beautifully presented, clean, friendly staff, the fresh food stock turns around all the time so fresh not stale and quite affordable - as an overseas Aussie visiting recent,y my personal feedback.
A friend of mine and hubby's bought Biltong at a festival, ate it all and then went for a few 'trots' along the way! Then in the evening, his constitution restored, we all tucked into a curry at one of Tewkesbury's finest. What a star! I love your foodie vlogs.
Thanks as always Hannah - was having such a glum day until you popped up in my notifications!! Always such a joy to spend some time with you - it really is like hanging out with an old friend
Used to buy my school uniform from Selfridges in the 60s. Yes I'm that old 😊. Now living in Australia so loving your videos Hannah. So if i get homesick you are there to make me feel better. Thanks.
I really agree with you, it certainly looked unloved and a bit grubby. It doesn’t take long to straighten packages etc especially at those prices. I will keep to good old Tesco lol🤗
Hello ! thanks for the tour it was fun to whatch , i only been to London once and that was back in 1998 when i was a domestic helper and i lived outside London / Love from Sweden / Johan
6:42 the jam advent calendar is one of the best on the market well worth the money if your a fan of toast or pastries in the morning or you do some baking little jars of jam and a spoon of well known flavours and new ones. It’s a great buy.
I used to work in that food hall in the 90s. Interesting that people would come in for their weekly shop including truffle and osso bucco. It was very buzzy atmosphere with frequent celeb spotting. Having said that, at one point I worked in the bakery section and they made us try and sell off some of yesterday’s leftovers as fresh bread. Always awkward when customers question the freshness. I can tell a lot of supermarket bakeries try this now. Very annoying. Goes to show even high end places are not always above board.
I agree that the display cases needed cleaning. The products are so attractive and I love the tins. Almost nothing comes in a pretty tin in the US. But I’d probably never be able to throw them away! What do you do with them?
Manuka honey is superb for topical treatments like minor burns and cuts as it is a strong natural antibiotic and I paid about $20 in CVS for what looked like the same amount. Moonpies are global 😊 Malomar cookies which are in season now are vaguely similar to moonpies. Enjoy your haul and have a great weekend ☺️
Hey Hannah, Thank you for the lovely vlog! I really enjoyed it, especially the shopping tour. If you don’t mind, I’d love to see more of those, especially in the winter - it’s much better to stay cozy inside the shopping centers when it’s cold! 🤗Anyway, happy Friday, and I hope you have an amazing weekend!💐🇬🇧❤🇺🇸💐
This is another awesome Friday here in sunny Oklahoma watching my favorite Friday afternoon show with Awesome Hannah and as always watching and listening to your great knowledge and shopping in the various stores in London Selfridge looks like a great grocery store to shop at. you always brighten up my Friday's and I always enjoy seeing the city of London thank you Lady Hannah. 👻🎃👻🎃🇬🇧
Thanks for taking us to Selfridges. I never really buy anything in their Food Hall when I travel to London. I prefer Harrods, Tesco and love Marks and Spencers across the street from Selfridges. Just find their displays not that impressive and tired at Selfridges. It’s needs a renovation. And do shop at Fortnum and Mason in their food hall at times for a few items. Love all of your videos, no matter where to take us. Always so enjoyable. Hope you enjoyed all of your purchases.
looks like they were going for the minimal, clean, boutique apple store vibe but it looks boring and cold. thanks for showing us around Hannah! have a lovely day!
Thank you for entertaining us once again 👏👏 What is there not to like about your commentary 🤣🤣. Amusing, playful but right on point - as always 👍👍 For the record, Mrs B and I are firm followers of F&M
Greetings Hannah, from Santa Barbara, California. We have similar speciality food shops. Comparing prices, UK appears to be higher (about 20%) on fresh pasta, teas, jams, but much lower on bread. I pay about $12USD for bakery sourdough. Smoked meats, about the same. UK is higher, about double, on fresh flower bouquets. We have similar packaged brands but it does look like the UK is higher across the board. I suppose shopping near the end of the day, and getting food at the 50% discount is the way to do it. I agree the shop could use a little thought in their presentation & food displays. Farmer’s market organic theme should be bright, with handwoven towels and napkins adding splashes of color. Flower tops or bundles of fresh herbs sprinkled in sandwich display cases will make the food look fresher. Nice video, I really enjoyed watching it. Enjoy your yummy selections.
Thank you so much hannah for an awesome amazing video .I really loved this video .especially seeing the bright green lamborghini at the start .and seeing inside selfridges .wow!! Amazing .I really love your videos hannah.seeing all the great shops .and different bits of London.this was a really amazing video thank you so much hannah.from Dan.m
Truffles are nothing to rave about. I’m with you Hannah, I was staying at a resort for my husband’s work and we had table service for breakfast, I ordered scrambled eggs and they came with truffles grated over the top. I ate it but wouldn’t have it again.
We found your channel a while ago and have been hooked since. Always hilarious when youve had a coffee and it kicks in then you start going off on tangents and forgetting what you first were talking about 😂
Really enjoy your videos and honesty about what you see. Since I live in Canada, I need to make sure I'm sitting down and have a good stiff drink ready. Your 7 pound Croissant would cost me $12.57 CAD. OUCH! Can't see anyone in Toronto or Vancouver willing to pay that much. I could be wrong. Someone please correct me if I am. I am always surprised at how they display really expensive items out in the open. Not a chance here. Love your choice of music to go along with your videos. Makes me think of a Sunday stroll through a market and amusement park. Save the loose leaf tea for a special relax at home on the weekend.😋
Hannah I adore every shopping trip you make ❤ my mum was from Fulham but unfortunately I never got to visit it. I can't wait for your Christmas vlogs. I get lost in your world for the short time you vlog 😊 you are amazing and make all your videos exciting and sooooo good 🤗 I think the shopping vlogs are my favourite. Well done Hannah I just love you. Greetings from Ireland. That was a very expensive shop but brilliant 💜
Best day of the week, and the best way to spend a Saturday morning, having a mooch about London with Hannah❤ Your videos have given me so much joy. And from previous videos, Harrods food hall looks better, it looks more high end and tidy.
Love your 'mooches' around the food shopping in London!! Been watching since the whole c19 experience... Hands down - I agree, Harrod's looks like the best. M&S and Waitrose are nice as well - Selfridge's... they don't seem to have as much? To me anyway. I also enjoy watching your experiences at Tesco and even Aldi - I don't have any of these stores here in the US - so its fun to see what is available in other countries. To be honest, prices everywhere seem to be bonkers these days.
Wow this shopping spree gives me the vibes you have been more entertaining and you explain so nicely with good advice ok love to watch you listen to you you are a majesty beautiful angel of my heart ❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗
Much fun watching your shopping videos from Oregon in the U.S. We have some specialty shops here in Portland area but nothing compares to the grand scale of things that you have there. I do agree that the store looked rough around the edges for sure. Sad to see. I agree , I LOVE your Harrods shopping trips, elegance and delicious.
The glass cabinets can't be helped. When I worked at Warren James the glass would be cleaned every half an hour as people left finger prints on the glass and as soon as you were done... the prints would be building up again. I can only imagine a shop as busy as Selfridges is going to be a lot worse for window pokers.
But even the inside of the glass cabinets, looked a bit shabby in places, a big disappointment. Harrods must be constantly cleaning, as their display glass is gleaming.
My father was staff manager of Selfridge's before WW2 under Gordon Selfridge, my cousin Walter was a doorman, and both my sister and I worked there as sales assistants. Both on the ground floor: she in cosmetics, while I sold gloves and hats. Meanwhile, mum was a senior sales assistant at Harrod's! A real department-store family. 😀
Brill
The history of Selfridges - incredible. They were first in many things, including selling make up, and having items on display for customers to actually touch! Loved the tv series.The store owes your family a lot, for your hard work through the generations.
I went to a Marks and Spencer's in Singapore recently in a mall
Wow! That's some family work history. Impressive. 🙂
Wow! that's amazing!
Hannah is the star of her show no matter where no matter when
My mum used to work in Selfridges in the 1960s. Every time we visits she likes to point out all the changes to the store and how it all looked in the 60s! 😆
I live in Canada now but I also look at these videos and remember what it was like in the 60s
I worked at selfridges 1973 age of 15. Top of the shop restaurant. Fun times 😊
Love my Friday mooch with Hannah, hyping me up to go shopping on the weekend, then remembering I don’t want to be an anchovy packed into a shopping hall with all the other shoppers. Hannah out here doing the hard work for us, thank you got your service 😂❤
It’s always been my dream to visit England. Since it’ll probably never happen, I live for these vlogs!
DOnt bother. It's full with immigrants
You’d be very welcome here 🏴 hope you make it one day ❤
Really hope you can visit us one day ❤❤
I got recommended your channel a few weeks ago, and been addicted to binge watching them to relax and unwind. It's rare to find a likeable youtuber 😂 you're a joy to watch. Thank you for producing entertaining content. You deserve 1 million subs! ❤
Have visited a few times when in the UK from Australia but as we say over here maybe it's all a bit of a "wank" 😅
Bought a multicoloured mini dress in Selfridges in 1969 when I was a young teen visiting from Canada. I was so proud of that dress. 😄
Can’t believe you’ve been doing this for about 5 years Hannah. You only popped up on my suggestions a couple of weeks ago and I’m slowly working my way through your ‘back catalogue’. You seem the pleasant sort, not pretentious and all round good egg. Keep up the good work, interesting stuff. I lived in London in the late eighties working in casinos and had a great time, it’s good to see some of the places I remember.😊

I find it hard to digest that you are just 21!!
You come across with much more experience and wisdom,
Wisdom beyond your years.
Just praising.
I feel like we need a breakdown of your outfits at the start of every video. Amazing clothes & bags in every video 👌🏼
i want that trench coat.
I totally agree! ♥️
Love coming home to watch Hannah shop 😊. Lovely start to my weekend!
I got to visit London 5 years ago and only had time for Selfridge or Harrods and I picked Selfridges. I loved it sooooo much! Those little fruits that look like yellow tomatoes are persimmons, yum!
I always knew them as Sharon Fruit. Ate so many when I first discovered them, that I have never touched one since. 😀
Another great Friday with Hannah🖐🇺🇸
Another nice video with Hannah happily hopping through the Food Halls of London. I'll be there soon, can't resist the place! Just love London ❤
Good to go round Selfridges today. They have been in business in Oxford Street for nearly 170 years. I used to shop there in the 1950’s. Not the cheapest, but always realistic prices. Like your new coat Hannah.
how old are you
115 years
I love your videos Hannah. The only way I'll see the inside of Harrod's, Fortnum & Mason, Selfridges. Your comments are priceless.

Coo! I remember free school meals too-my fave was choc pud and choc sauce! What is it about the nostalgia of school dinners?! love sue xxx

Manchester Tart at school was yummy.

Biltong is an Afrikaans 🇿🇦 name for jerky as you know it. In South Africa we LOVE biltong
👍🇿🇦❣️

I’m with you Hannah, the fridge displays are in need of a good clean. Wonder what the food inspectors might think.

I really agree with you, it certainly looked unloved and a bit grubby. It doesn’t take long to straighten packages etc especially at those prices. I will keep to good old Tesco lol🤗
Once again you made a sad day happy. Thank you for everything you bring to us. You are a joy
Hello ! thanks for the tour it was fun to whatch , i only been to London once and that was back in 1998 when i was a domestic helper and i lived outside London / Love from Sweden / Johan
6:42 the jam advent calendar is one of the best on the market well worth the money if your a fan of toast or pastries in the morning or you do some baking little jars of jam and a spoon of well known flavours and new ones. It’s a great buy.
I used to work in that food hall in the 90s. Interesting that people would come in for their weekly shop including truffle and osso bucco. It was very buzzy atmosphere with frequent celeb spotting.
Having said that, at one point I worked in the bakery section and they made us try and sell off some of yesterday’s leftovers as fresh bread. Always awkward when customers question the freshness. I can tell a lot of supermarket bakeries try this now. Very annoying.
Goes to show even high end places are not always above board.
Love watching your videos! I look forward to them each week. We recently enjoyed a holiday in the UK and I want to come back so badly!!!
I agree that the display cases needed cleaning. The products are so attractive and I love the tins. Almost nothing comes in a pretty tin in the US. But I’d probably never be able to throw them away! What do you do with them?
Manuka honey is superb for topical treatments like minor burns and cuts as it is a strong natural antibiotic and I paid about $20 in CVS for what looked like the same amount. Moonpies are global 😊 Malomar cookies which are in season now are vaguely similar to moonpies. Enjoy your haul and have a great weekend ☺️
Great vlog Hannah. Any video with beige food is a winner. Love the little rating scales you added.
Great video Hannah, the answer to your question Blur or Oasis is always Suede, the band of a Generation still making great music now.
Hey Hannah, Thank you for the lovely vlog! I really enjoyed it, especially the shopping tour. If you don’t mind, I’d love to see more of those, especially in the winter - it’s much better to stay cozy inside the shopping centers when it’s cold! 🤗Anyway, happy Friday, and I hope you have an amazing weekend!💐🇬🇧❤🇺🇸💐
Cheers for showing the nicer side of London. 🎉
Biltong is dried meat, usually made with salt, vinegar and coriander. From South Africa
This is another awesome Friday here in sunny Oklahoma watching my favorite Friday afternoon show with Awesome Hannah and as always watching and listening to your great knowledge and shopping in the various stores in London
Selfridge looks like a great grocery store to shop at. you always brighten up my Friday's and I always enjoy seeing the city of London thank you Lady Hannah.
👻🎃👻🎃🇬🇧
Thanks for taking us to Selfridges. I never really buy anything in their Food Hall when I travel to London. I prefer Harrods, Tesco and love Marks and Spencers across the street from Selfridges. Just find their displays not that impressive and tired at Selfridges. It’s needs a renovation. And do shop at Fortnum and Mason in their food hall at times for a few items. Love all of your videos, no matter where to take us. Always so enjoyable. Hope you enjoyed all of your purchases.
looks like they were going for the minimal, clean, boutique apple store vibe but it looks boring and cold.
thanks for showing us around Hannah! have a lovely day!
Just a little out of my price range. Thanks for sharing Hannah have a good weekend . See you next Friday 👋👋
Christmas is only once a year 😂
Thank you for entertaining us once again 👏👏
What is there not to like about your commentary 🤣🤣. Amusing, playful but right on point - as always 👍👍
For the record, Mrs B and I are firm followers of F&M
Greetings Hannah, from Santa Barbara, California. We have similar speciality food shops. Comparing prices, UK appears to be higher (about 20%) on fresh pasta, teas, jams, but much lower on bread. I pay about $12USD for bakery sourdough. Smoked meats, about the same. UK is higher, about double, on fresh flower bouquets. We have similar packaged brands but it does look like the UK is higher across the board. I suppose shopping near the end of the day, and getting food at the 50% discount is the way to do it. I agree the shop could use a little thought in their presentation & food displays. Farmer’s market organic theme should be bright, with handwoven towels and napkins adding splashes of color. Flower tops or bundles of fresh herbs sprinkled in sandwich display cases will make the food look fresher. Nice video, I really enjoyed watching it. Enjoy your yummy selections.
Splendid! Great job! I watch this in the middle of the night with a glass of red wine.
Thank you so much hannah for an awesome amazing video .I really loved this video .especially seeing the bright green lamborghini at the start .and seeing inside selfridges .wow!! Amazing .I really love your videos hannah.seeing all the great shops .and different bits of London.this was a really amazing video thank you so much hannah.from Dan.m
Biltong is the African name for Beef Jeeky. My husband who was South African loved his Biltong.
👍🇿🇦❣️
Truffles are nothing to rave about. I’m with you Hannah, I was staying at a resort for my husband’s work and we had table service for breakfast, I ordered scrambled eggs and they came with truffles grated over the top. I ate it but wouldn’t have it again.
We found your channel a while ago and have been hooked since. Always hilarious when youve had a coffee and it kicks in then you start going off on tangents and forgetting what you first were talking about 😂
Thanks, Hannah. This video is getting me excited for Vlogmas 2024!
Thanks for the channel support!!
Really enjoy your videos and honesty about what you see. Since I live in Canada, I need to make sure I'm sitting down and have a good stiff drink ready. Your 7 pound Croissant would cost me $12.57 CAD. OUCH! Can't see anyone in Toronto or Vancouver willing to pay that much. I could be wrong. Someone please correct me if I am. I am always surprised at how they display really expensive items out in the open. Not a chance here. Love your choice of music to go along with your videos. Makes me think of a Sunday stroll through a market and amusement park. Save the loose leaf tea for a special relax at home on the weekend.😋
Selfridges has certainly gone down hill, the counters in the food hall looked positively scruffy.
Great video Hannah . 👍
Hannah I adore every shopping trip you make ❤ my mum was from Fulham but unfortunately I never got to visit it. I can't wait for your Christmas vlogs. I get lost in your world for the short time you vlog 😊 you are amazing and make all your videos exciting and sooooo good 🤗 I think the shopping vlogs are my favourite. Well done Hannah I just love you. Greetings from Ireland. That was a very expensive shop but brilliant 💜
Looking forward to seeing autumn in London 😊
I’m with you PG Tips 👌 perfect
Great tour Hannah, Harrods just has the edge over Selfridges imo,cant wait for the Christmas food and gift vlogs👍
Thanks again Hannah for your delicious video. ❤
Best day of the week, and the best way to spend a Saturday morning, having a mooch about London with Hannah❤ Your videos have given me so much joy.
And from previous videos, Harrods food hall looks better, it looks more high end and tidy.
A very good Saturday morning to you all
Love your 'mooches' around the food shopping in London!! Been watching since the whole c19 experience... Hands down - I agree, Harrod's looks like the best. M&S and Waitrose are nice as well - Selfridge's... they don't seem to have as much? To me anyway. I also enjoy watching your experiences at Tesco and even Aldi - I don't have any of these stores here in the US - so its fun to see what is available in other countries. To be honest, prices everywhere seem to be bonkers these days.
Is it not time that we demand a Hannah Rickett's UA-cam channel purely devoted to cake? Who's with me?!
Wow this shopping spree gives me the vibes you have been more entertaining and you explain so nicely with good advice ok love to watch you listen to you you are a majesty beautiful angel of my heart ❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗
Another great video. It's great to treat yourself, you deserve it! Looking forward for F&M
Much fun watching your shopping videos from Oregon in the U.S.
We have some specialty shops here in Portland area but nothing compares to the grand scale of things that you have there.
I do agree that the store looked rough around the edges for sure. Sad to see.
I agree , I LOVE your Harrods shopping trips, elegance and delicious.
Hi from Athens Greece !!! Really love your blogs!!! So to the point.
The glass cabinets can't be helped. When I worked at Warren James the glass would be cleaned every half an hour as people left finger prints on the glass and as soon as you were done... the prints would be building up again. I can only imagine a shop as busy as Selfridges is going to be a lot worse for window pokers.
But even the inside of the glass cabinets, looked a bit shabby in places, a big disappointment. Harrods must be constantly cleaning, as their display glass is gleaming.
ahh oh great vibes hannah :) have a wonderful day
