This discount variety store is relatively small compared to most, however they make the most of their space, packing the shelves to the ceiling.
It doesn't have the range that the larger variety stores have, however they're particularly good for certain things, like art and craft. They have a lot of canvases for good prices, and plenty of paints and card-decorating supplies. They're also good for party wares and kids' costumes, but not so much for adult costumes. Their largest range is for the kitchen, and the whole middle aisle is dedicated to kitchen storage and utensils (which is a third of the shop). They have a small collection of electrical products, as well as make-up.
They young Asian couple who own it are very pleasant, and don't bother you when you come in for a browse, but just say a friendly hello. This is great for me because while variety stores are one of my favourite places to browse, I don't often buy much, because the bottom line is it's not stuff you really need. read more
