I made an online purchase via ebay and I received my parcel (Christmas gift) from Winit Trading on time and well packed. The item was also well priced so my Christmas to do list is reducing.

While in the area I took the opportunity to purchase some of the lovely loaves of bread that are produced here. There is nothing to surpass freshly baked bread. The rolls from here are great for lunches too as well as the mouthwatering sweet treats

When driving past this supermarket I noticed a sign advertising steak at a very good price and also some atlantic salmon well priced. Parking was available so I popped in and made some good purchases. It always helps the budget to shop well.

Did some basic shopping here while in Brighton Central Mall. This supermarket is large and spacious with a great range of fresh vegetables, fruit etc. The deli is large and so is the cheese selection. It is at gourmet standard. I was just topping up the bread, milk and ham this time. Look forward to completing a larger shop here when I have more cold storage available in car.

Near Oasis Brighton is this butcher shop. Noticed they had 10 meat balls for $10 and decided this was our meal for the evening. Cooked on the bbq and they were very tasty and easy. Nice selection of meats on display and reasonably priced too

Decided to have a manicure here and was very happy with the outcome. It was $20 and a pleasant experience. Just chose the basic offer

Enjoyed browsing this store which stocks clothing and accessories and gift items. Found some interesting ideas for Christmas gifts and was able to reduce my list.

Visited Brighton Central and enjoyed a coffee here at the Blue Bird Bakery. Always have enjoyed this bakery and now have seen them in their new premises. It is as good as ever.

This store is so well stocked with all types of fabric and haberdashery items. Lovely lady behind the counter to help you when help is needed. There is no other store like this anywhere near here. It is an asset to the community and the wider area.

I needed patty pans that were different so came into Bake Boss. They stock everything that is needed to bake for special occasions and even have baking classes. Great place to investigate.
