This review is for Antony Air-Con & Electrical, Regents Park QLD

Have used them a couple of times and have found them to be the cheapest around by far. They do great work, are very friendly and professional. The only downfall I can think of is once we did use them and they quoted us $150-$200 and the electrician that actually came out ended up charging us $350, which was a real disappointment. We ended up paying the $350, as there was not much we could do - despite me ringing the office and telling them that we were quoted $200 max beforehand. I guess in future, make sure you check your invoice BEFORE the electrician leaves your house, as he is the only one that can fix it.

Approximate cost: $350

We were luck enough to visit when Steve Irwin was still alive & got to see him do a interactive show with the crocs....it was amazing. It is quite expensive now, which is a pity coz I'd love to take my kids but its not really affordable for us to go.

Took the kids here a couple of days ago & they had a ball there. We actually bought our tickets because Scoopon had a deal on so it only cost us $39 for a family pass which was very worth it for a family day outing. We took our own packed lunch & some frozen poppers & water. The actual zoo is not overly big, but it was interesting & fun for the kids.

Approximate cost: $39.00

This review is for Wriggle It, Kingston QLD

Probably the best indoor play centre I have ever been to so far. The prices are very reasonable, the playground has always been clean & tidy and the kids love it. The only downfall that I have found is that it seems like they don't replenish the batteries in the toys in the baby area, which is a bit of a bummer coz the little ones like playing with new toys.

The kids loved the playground here HOWEVER there were so many things that I thought were a bit odd. Firstly they are very expensive in comparison to other indoor playcentres, more expensive than a lot of the other ones I have take the kids to. They have different pricing for weekdays and for weekends/school holidays, which I think is another odd thing. They also charge for adults, which I think is ridiculous. You do get a free coffee or softdrink to substitute that, but it is quite silly to charge a parent to bring their kids to a playcentre. They have a small café there aswell, but the food is very expensive.

Got my wedding dress altered here & she was great. Very cheaply priced, the work was done professionally & reasonably quick. Was very happy with the work.

This review is for Yatala Twin Drive-In Theatre, Stapylton QLD

I believe this is the last drive in left running in Brisbane. What an experience, it is great. Great prices, really good if you have young kids (especially babies) coz you sit in the car & if the talk/cry it doesn't disrupt other people. Love the atmosphere, bring your own pillows, blanket, food & drinks & enjoy the movie.

This review is for Yatala Pies, Yatala QLD

Wow these pies are amazing. Everyone should definitely give them a go. Lots of flavours to choose from, they do sweet & savoury pies. Baked fresh onsite. We've been eating there & its great, you can get a meal with pie, mash potato, mushy peas & gravy all served on a plate ready to eat & its beautiful. Seems to be a bit of a Brisbane Landmark now, great place to take interstate/overseas visitors.

Well worth checking this place out. They have some great specials. Lots of discounted food/drinks for sale to the public. A lot cheaper than shops. Selected stuff though so not all flavours/types available. Love this shop.

This review is for Souvlaki Hut, Browns Plains QLD

Tried Souvlaki here for the first time & found it to be quite good. Reasonably priced, store was clean, staff were great. Food was served hot & tasted quite good. A bit different from a kebab, but the fresh cooked meat was nice rather than roll meat.
