Hubby and I were in the area so we stopped for a look. I was initially under the impression this was a bridal boutique. Not so apparently! They have pjs and casual wear too, as well as formal and bridal wear. It was nice to look, and the staff were friendly, but it was a bit out of my budgetary range. Nice clothes though.

If you are looking for something different, and you love European style foods, this is the best place in Qld. They have lots of fresh foods, canned and packet foods, packets of sauces and puddings, and noodles too. They are a great one stop shop for us, as we love theis style of food from our past. I recommend them to everyone, and go there every 3 months to stock up on things I can't get at my local butchers.

I have tried quite a few opticians, and have had some very bad experiences. I was loath to try another one, but I needed glasses and they were there. I walked in and told them what I wanted, that I was a holder of a concession card. They didn't treat me any differently than a paying customer. I had my eye test, took in my old glasses, and they changed the lenses for $45. I also got a new pair through the govt scheme, and now have no problem finding a pair at home. They listened and responded, that's all we can ask for. They were really great!

This review is for Petbarn, Rothwell QLD

I went into this store because we decided that we might like a pet of some kind. We had decided on fish, and needed to get everything. We live in a small house so we got a reasonable tank, filters, an assortment of decorations, and a few neon tetras. The whole thing cost under $100, and we love sitting in the lounge watching them dart around. The staff were friendly and we had a great time. It took us an hour, but the staff were very understanding and left us alone to make the decision. We'll go back for all our needs.

What a big change this bus company has made this last 6 months. I use them regularly, and have to say I like what they've done. Improved customer service, more reliable transport, cheap enough for everyone and no hassles. I have to say that they have improved by 60%. Good job!

If you want to support the local produce industry, this is the place to be on Sunday morning. They are always friendly, their stock is fresh, the butcher is great, the crafts are desirable, and it's always fun. My favourite is the local made sweets stall. Yummy stuff! The only thing I don't look forward to is the parking.

If looks could ....This place could be really good if they got serious about it. Yes it looks appealing, yes the staff are okay at service, but the barista/coffee maker needs to go back to a course. Our coffees were luke warm, and when we asked for hot ones, she just used the steam nozzle to heat them up. I told her we would like fresh hot coffee and she refused. We didn't wait for the coffee and refused to pay. Not great if you want to have a successful business.

My friend and I decided to take a look here on the weekend. We found lots of bargains for the home and office, toys, snacks, and gardening stuff. I liked some of the items for the garden, because I spend a lot of time here every week. My friend ended up buying a few things, and I helped her take them to the car. The staff were friendly, the store neat, and the products were pretty good.

This review is for Youi Insurance, Brisbane QLD

verified email - 02 Jul 2012

I was comparing my insurance for the car with a few companies, and found out what a massive difference in premiums there are. The difference between my old insurer and youi was a whopping $130.00 a year. They were great. Their customer service is top notch, their premiums are very competitive. I have nothing but praise for them. They ask a lot of questions, but that helps bring down the premiums. As I no longer drive my car every day, I need to budget where I can without compromising on the service. They don't care how many kms you do!

This is the place to go for any kinds of cosmetics at good prices. They have lots of brands like Cover Girl, Ulta3, and Max Factor. It's the same products a sthe stores sell, with convenient online 24 hour service. I've been a member for a year now, and have nothing negative to say about them. Neither do any of my friends.
