The prices are sky high and I'm not even sure where the money goes from sales and what it's used…read morefor The staff are all friendly but it's a small shop with no sorting with the clothes etc BRING CASH THEY DONT TAKE ANY EFTPOS!

I am so happy that I have a good second hand store close by…read more Although I usually head further in to do most of my vintage shopping I always make time to stop by Yours, Now Mine and check out the wide range of accessories, home décor and memento. It doesn't suffer from the over-expensive second hand fever that is sweeping our beloved stores (ahem Brunswick Street), and every time I pick up something and have a look at the price I don't have to immediately put it down and walk away with my head hung. There are always some great retro vases or platters in the window that hark back to a time where lurid orange and brown were chic and big belt buckles were king. Even if I don't end up buying anything, a short trip here is an instant pick me up. The atmosphere is fun, the sales assistants are friendly and the products are very kitsch.

Bulleen Plaza is less a shopping mall and more a community centre for the nearby Bulleen community…read more While it is home to a small overstocked Coles and various discount stores, badly lit cafes, newsagency, fish monger and greengrocer the mall itself is poorly lit and is crying out for a modern makeover. It is also packed on a Saturday morning so I guess it serves it's community. However it is most likely it's social aspect that draws in crowds of senior residence and families. The mall is littered with people who have happened upon a chance meeting and are catching up on gossip and family events. Groups of Italian men sit and watch the buzz of the shoppers pass around them. As a local shopping centre is does it's job, but not with style. Overall a no-frills shopping centre with a community vibe but apart from that no atmosphere in itself.
