Definitely my preferred comic shop in Canberra. Although the shop itself is small, it is well set-out and it's easy to find what you're after. The Marvel section is particularly well-stocked. It's also really easy to find the newest arrivals, and the range of gift items is pretty spectacular. Parking can be problematic.

Approximate cost: $25

The staff were helpful, although given that I was there early in the morning, they could have been a little more cheerful. I was seen quickly, and paid what I expected to pay for my products. Parking in this area is more than suitable for the numbers of customers you'd expect, and the business is easy to find.

Approximate cost: $40

I really liked the food here for the most part: our rice was cheap and tasty, the honey chicken was fantastic, and the stir fried vegetables were amazing. We found the sweet and sour sauce to be a little milder than we are used to, which was a bit disappointing. The beef in black bean sauce, however, was fantastic!

While the wait is usually a fairly long one (I wouldn't assume less than an hour), the waiting room is reasonably comfortable and clean. The staff are polite, and although you are in and out fairly quickly, I think the doctors are as thorough as they need to be. Bulk-billing is really helpful as we are on a very tight budget, and the convenience of having the pharmacy on premises is really fantastic. I would recommend this business to anybody who needs to see a doctor on a budget.

I love the takeaway food from this shop: the service is quick, even when the place is really busy, the salads are fresh and really nice, and this is definitely one of the best chicken outlets in Belconnen.

This review is for PINCHme, Rushcutters Bay NSW

While the website is easy to negotiate, this really isn't a good site for people who work: by the time you get to your lunch break or home at the end of the day, there are rarely any samples left. If you don't have a Facebook account, it's going to take a while to go up any levels at all. On the plus side, when you can snag a sample, they arrive quickly, and the review process is easy. I have as yet only received one email from them other than my confirmation email.

What I find most frustrating about this site isn't the low numbers of samples compared to demand, however, but the fact that there are rarely any samples at all: we usually have to wait until Tuesday for samples, and some weeks there are only one or two items available. More samples in terms of choice would be fantastic.
