Oh look, yet another convenience store in West End. What is it about this place that makes it so…read moreconducive to having such a large number in operation? It must be all the munchies going on. What sets this place apart is the amount of Asian groceries you can get here. The store has about four aisles, two of which are dedicated to Asian 'cuisine'. The inverted commas are necessary because I'm not sure two minute noodles, no matter how many Chinese characters appear on the packaging, can be considered cuisine. But it is a tiny supermarket so I don't think they can be criticised for their choice to stock long-life products. Of course they still have the same stuff every other convenience store does; cold drinks, snacks, basic ingredients and toiletries and pre-paid phone credit. I like that this one has a little something extra.

I've always wondered what the W in W supermarket stood for…read more For a while I thought it was for Westend, but now I'm sure it's for WHATEVER. (And it really does offer a hodgepodge of products that fall under the "Whatever you could possibly Need from a convenience store" umbrella.) My favourite aspect of this store is the large range of asian groceries on display, from hello pandas, pockys and chocolate to shampoos, noodles and dried ginger there is something to satisfy everyones wants. Be sure to also check out their fridge full of delectable asian ice creams (Green Tea or blue lemonade = my life guys) Right on Melbourne St, This little store is well worth a peep in when cruising through Westend.

I'm not sure this store is exactly what I would call 'convenient'; unless you've been hit by…read morecravings for some junk food or that's all your diet consists of, they won't be able to help you too much. It's a tiny little place so I suppose they've had to make some decisions as to what sells best, and they have decided to fill their shelves with mainly chips and chocolate, with a few toiletries shunned to one side on a shelf of their own. Yes, it's convenient for certain things, but not if you're in need of some last minute ingredients for dinner or don't fancy the idea of heart disease. When I called to check the opening times, the guy on the other end of the line informed me when they open quite decisively. As to when they close he didn't sound too sure - their closing time depends on trade, so be warned that what is listed is not set in stone by any means.

You probably won't believe me, but I always wished there was a convenience store here and when Busy…read moreBee opened last year I was chuffed. You see, I often visit family in a unit block next door but I'm usually there after hours and as you may have noticed, WIckham Tce after hours is pretty dead. When I visit my family, I've often come straight from work and am dying for a Coke or something to go with dinner or someone needs me to get milk or whatever. So, finally that FOR LEASE sign went down, and Busy Bee bumbled in. It's a pretty typical little convenience store, but it is such a godsend where it's located. They sell some random little knick-knacks and a few imported goods to which always makes for some interesting impulse buys. The staff here don't speak much english but they're so lovely. Busy Bee often has good deals too, things like two for ones or drink/snack combos. I know lots of places have these (especially pretor stations), but Busy Bee's are actually worthwhile in terms of value which is a nice change. So if for some reason you're ever on Wickham Tce after hours (and you'll be one of the only ones) and you need an ice cream or some cheezels, rejoice! Busy Bee has the sweet stuff (lame joke, I'm sorry). But seriously, how cute is the name and the sign!
