I like dealing with the ladies at the Council Service Office because they have the answers to so many council related questions. You can do so much there such as, pay rates, animal registrations. They have information on events, issues relating to the elderly and disabled. You can report problems, barking dogs, neighbours and even broken garbage bins. The list is endless.

After seeing the latest catalogue I was compelled to buy a whole lot of Sylvanian Family items because they are so hard to get. The staff were very friendly and helpful. After looking around the store I was surprised at the size of it and the variety of toys they stock. I was very impressed

Going into Big W is a fun experience. They have such a good variety of high quality products that I find that it is the first store I will go when I need something. If I can't find what I'm looking for the staff are always ready to help. The sales are very organised and always well stocked. Their big Toy Sales are incredible, they have so much to choose from

The staff are great, they go out of their way to make sure that you are happy and they give their honest opinion when trying on clothes. They will tell you what they think and I appreciate that. They also have a Millers Club which earns reward whenever you make a purchase. They have lots of decent sales and their clothing is of a high quality.

I have used this newsagency for years and years. The staff are always friendly and do their best to help you. If they haven't got what you want or need they do their best to obtain it. They also fill school book list orders any school. All you need do is give them the list and they do the rest, usually much cheaper than what is quoted on the list

I subscibe to Magshop for as many magazines as I can. Not only do the deliver to your letterbox they also are cheaper than a newsagent or supermarket. sometimes even half price. If an issue is late they will extend the length of your subscribtion.
